T-Mobile has thousands more 5G cities than Verizon and AT&T, Ookla says:

T-Mobile has almost 20 times more 5G cities than AT&T and Verizon combined, according to a new analytics report by Ookla. T-Mobile is sitting on 5,013 cities with 5G -- and that's before adding in the former 5G sites of Sprint after the carrier's $26.5 billion merger with Sprint -- while AT&T has 237 5G cities and Verizon has 39.

Verizon was by far the fastest in speeds, though, charting at a speed score of 870 in comparison to AT&T's 78 and T-Mobile's 64 in Ookla's report.

"Only T-Mobile is doing the hard work to deliver 5G coverage and performance. Sure, it would be easier to deliver blazing speeds in postage stamp-sized areas like Verizon, but our strategy is different," said Neville Ray, president of technology at T-Mobile. "T-Mobile's strategy is built on delivering a meaningful 5G experience people can actually use."

There are now 5,164 cities across the US with 5G, according to Ookla.

    The atmosphere here is generally serious to angry. There are many exceptions though.

    Keep fighting! :)

      That sad attempt to dunk on EJ ignores the actual substance of the comment.

      Keep being stupid.

        You're that same asshole king of stupidity who has brain short circuits. The comment was purely at TomTheFighter. Had NOTHING to do with EJ. But in your scrambled placeholder for a brain everything is connected. Eat shit and bark at the moon.

          If you butt into an argument between two assholes, don't be surprised if one poops on you.

    Wear the troll mod as a badge of honor. It means you said something that mattered enough to trigger the weak, simple, and intolerant.
