Cept for the V30The band wasn't even finalized till a couple of months ago. There was no way this was making it in the 2017 iPhones.
Cept for the V30
Yep, thats why T-mobile is doing that free upgrade to the next iPhone which will be 600 mhz compatible with 12 months worth of payments on their EIP program of the 8 or X.
That is the main reason I left T-Mobile for Verizon. The other reason was weak or no receptions at some areas in the city.In building reception is exactly what i need at my work. Verizon works great but tmobile just doesn't work. Outside of the building t mobile works great.

Apple's iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X are not compatible with LTE Band 71, aka T-Mobile's new 600 MHz spectrum the company plans on rolling out in the United States as soon as this year.
Ya, must be nice to not be in a cat fight with Qualcomm and actually prioritize using the latest tech.
So we wait for the Iphone 9/XI or whatever it will be in a year. To be fair the 600mhz Band71 isn't vacated fully yet - the TV broadcasters on those frequencies have a few years to vacate so it becomes available across parts of the US over time here and there. By the time the full Band71 is available across the entire US for T-Mobile to use, we will be buying another phone already...and I suspect that one will have Band71 support.
The only folks that need Band 71 now are those in a few rural areas of the country where the 700MHz LTE and other bands are not available.

Band 71 is already live in a bunch of markets in the midwest and west coast.
Apple never prioritized using the latest networking tech.
I didn't say that.
The day t mobile goes "braveheart" on other mobile companies like att is the day mel gibson yells "frrrrreeeeedddoomm."
I doubt they would dominate.Wait until they have a dominant market position like they have in Germany.
They will rip you off just as bad.
I doubt they would dominate.
Looks like it won't impact me because I live near civilization.
Phew!
