Re: T-Mobile Test Drive

The price is AMAZING. I ran the $35.00 unlimited data plan for a few months. It was a good experience, although where I live Verizon data speeds are 5x faster. Have fun!

Re: T-Mobile Test Drive

T-mobile is pretty cheap price wise, but lol at the speed tests. I mean they are competing against the iphone, its a no brainier who will win. They are also kind of picking and choosing, because these days who needs unlimited talk? there is always skype for those that talk a lot on their cell too.

I have the 10GB value plan with 500 talk and text, my bill is about the same as what I was paying with sprint. My data speeds are also much better and my 3G doesn't drop as much on my commutes or every single time I send and receive a text which is what matters to me.

Do you have 3G/4G coverage where you are and were you using a 3G/4G compatible phone? Because if not VZ would be faster,especially if on LTE.

Re: T-Mobile Test Drive

for one, i would rather have unlimited data with the slowest provider than be capped and throttled down to sub-dial up speeds on tmo. they really are that low. a freeind of mine has tmobile, and when he hits that cap 10 days in to his month, his phone is basicly worthless unless he is on wifi. they really shouldnt be able to call that unlimited.
also, the sprint unlimited minute plan is almost the same as the next plan down. 1500 minutes with unlimited mobile to mobile is just as good as unlimited. no joke, my wife and her sister use 6000 minutes a month together. about 300 count toward our actual metered minutes. i contend that unless you are trying, it is pretty hard to break 1500 minutes when mobile to mobile are free and nights start at 7. i love how they cherry pick a plan to put against sprints plan, but dont actually compare the most similar plan.

anyway, tmobile is obviously for women, fruits, and the infirm. i dont fall in to any of those catagories.

Re: T-Mobile Test Drive

also, i just watched the comparison vids. what a joke!!!!!
of course the hspa+ phone is going to beat the iphone. no matter what network its on, its only capable of traditional 3g. that is blatant false advertisement. they try to confuse by putting their"4g" phone against a phone with a 4 in the name to confuse people.

at least sprint doesnt outright lie in their commercials. i really like the hesse commercials. he got that quaint tom bodette way about him.

things like this make me like tmobile less.

What a very sexist and discriminatory statement but then again I couldn't expect any less. anyway even when I hit my 10GB cap which usually doesn't happen till 3.5 weeks into the month my speeds are still faster than they ever were when I was with sprint.

another expected response, you do know that the iPhone is also an H+ phone don't you? I've gotten faster speeds on my HD7 than my friend did on his iPhone 4S on AT&T. PCWorld also said that T-Mobiles 3G network is faster than sprint 4G. So they aren't lying.
