Well I switched the family over to sprint to save money and my wife is not happy at all with the coverage where she works. Hopefully, the two companies will merge and she will get better coverage when they do. Plus, maybe we will get 5G sooner, as well.

mobile providers may change as they update their outside equipment for 5g.
 
Does anyone know how close T-Mobile is to implementing 600 MHz and if my new XR is capable of utilizing this frequency? Right now we have 4 iPhones on AT&T but very interested in switching to T Mobile because of price. Our family is spread out between Colorado Springs and Brunswick, Maine, coverage in these two areas is real important.

iPhone XS and iPhone XR support LTE band 71 that operates on the 600MHz spectrum that T-Mobile bought.

Here is T-Mobile's list of cities where it has been rolled out as of last month:
