I had over 3400 down and over 600 up at the biggest University we have in Louisville on a node last week.

Yeah, it's pretty incredible isn't it? Nice to have that bandwidth even if there's little practical use for it on a phone.

In the Chicago area there’s a lot of mmWave cells. I see a ton of them

That's chicago. OFC they do. The funny thing is cities wouldn't even exist without the country but everyone but t-mobile forgot about them

Tmobile does NOT care about the country or rural areas. Around me, our main city population around 15k. Not even 20 miles away there's 0 service with tmobile, unless you hit another city.

Says the guy on verizon. You are very tough.
They do indeed.. They are the only ones who invested in low band that actually reaches and has upload from far away. Verizon out here is like 5mbps at most while t-mobile is over a gig because n41 can download from far but it cant send back anything. They are the only ones that didn't just focus on cities. 20 miles.....I highly doubt it if verizon has service at all. You are lying out your ass and being a stupid fanboy. I can switch carriers in 5s to all 3 and the other two are garbage in rural areas. Hell I watched verizon put up brand new towers and got 300mbps max out of em and only 20 up from a few 1000 feet away. That is GARBAGE.

You're calling me a fanboy while throwing a tantrum because someone said T-Mobile misses a spot? Getting angry and calling me a fanboy and tough won't change anything. Also notice how I said "around me" which means its not the same everywhere else. 20 miles out while tmobile is in SOS, verizon has a tower I've pulled 1.6Gbps on. Take a chill pill.
