Not HereI'll just say that here in the rural areas, Verizon blows T-Mobile away in coverage, particularly in the old Alltel areas. I give T-mobile credit though. Things have improved greatly in a short amount of time. |

From last to firstI've always liked Verizon and had the best network. With that you always paid a premium for the service. Now it seems that Verizon is stuck in the past. T-mobile being on top hopefully makes them compete. |

Verizon will fight...tooth and nail to discredit this in some shape or form just so they will continue to not have to compete. But time is running out. It's either compete or eventually fail. |

T-MobileThis report includes T-Mobile partner coverage. They have almost zero native coverage in the state of Iowa outside of Des Moines. T-Mobile cannot ever truly beat Verzon in network coverage (in terms of square miles) as along as they are missing almost an entire state. |

coverage mattersshould be interesting comments here, but coverage matters a lot also what IS always overlooked is what kind of phone the end user has, so is not just carrier is also the phone, i would say the carrier is 51% or higher and phone is 49% or lower |

VZ still beats them in rural OregonMy family all live in rural parts of the Willamette valley and VZ and AT&T still vastly out perform T Mobile's coverage. Granted T Mobile has remarkably improved it is still far away from reaching parity in these parts. Maybe I'll look at them again when new 600mhz bands and phones come out. |

REIn what markets? In the areas I visit T-Mobile is stuttering under congestion? Must be the large cities that the carriers seem to be focusing on like NY, LA, Houston, Chicago, etc. |

This tests customer experience, not nationwide network performancePer the website: "Those measurements are taken wherever users happen to be, whether indoors or out, in a city or in the countryside, representing performance the way users experience it'
Which backs up user comments here. Customers in T-Mobile coverage areas are happy, but T-Mobile coverage nationally is likely much further behind than the 2% quote this article suggests. National coverage is entirely different than average customer experience. |

MaineCheck out the T-Mobile coverage map for Maine and zoom until you see the crosshatched lines. All that area is 2G partner roaming limited to 200mb a month...and terrible voice quality. Not even close to Verizon. |
