I'm "ok" with it. As others have mentioned, they definitely have less coverage outside of the cities, and it's even noticeable inside the cities. Less enough that I've contemplated getting a simple "dumb" phone (I *really* miss flip phones) on Verizon purely for voice calls.</div><div><br></div><div>Reasons I'm sticking with T-Mobile (so far):</div><div>- At least in marketing, they're trying to stick it to the Big 3. Lower rates, true payment plans on the phones, etc.</div><div>- International service. I've only used it in Brazil so far. When I landed I got a text message saying "Welcome to Brazil! You have free text messaging and data service. Voice calls are 20 cents a minute." I didn't need to do a thing (except turn on "data roaming," which was a scary prospect...).</div><div>- WiFi calling on an iPhone. Goes hand-in-hand with the international service. From my hotel and work site I make and receives calls exactly as if I'm in the U.S, with nary a worry about rates. It's not always perfect (my hotel WiFi isn't the best), but it really does work. No noticeable lag, either.</div><div><br></div></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:medium"><font size="2" color="#333399">Michael Sauder</font></div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:medium"><font size="2" color="#333399">Email: <a href="mailto:michael.sauder@gmail.com" target="_blank">michael.sauder@gmail.com</a></font></div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:medium"><font size="2" color="#333399">Web: <a href="http://www.shownet.io/" target="_blank">www.shownet.io</a></font></div></div></div>
