All i ever hear about with wireless carriers (reviews on youtube, etc) is how fast their LTE is, but honestly once you get to a certain speed what difference does the overkill make?
I cannot decide between T-mobile and cricket wireless. From what i have heard cricket has a LARGER 4G LTE area but T-mobile has a FASTER LTE area where its available, is this generally the consensus?
I dont understand why people harp on LTE speeds so much, i have come to the conclusion that you only need 4Mbps to stream HD video and i cant come up with a reason where you would need more bandwidth than that.
I dont live in a large city im about an hour south of the twin cities in MN (my zip code 55021 if you want to look at the coverage maps for me). And again from what ive heard cricket (ATT) has the wider coverage area which is more important to me, from the maps T-mobile says my city is fully covered in LTE but right now i use virgin mobile (sprint) and they say my city is also fully covered in LTE and that is a straight up lie, my 4g drops constantly and i have 3g more than i have 4g lte in my city.
T-mobile would end up costing my about 20 bucks more per month than cricket after taxes and fees, i know t-mobile would also have far better customer service but that is less important to me than having a consistent data signal.
I know first world problems lol, but this is a tough one to decide. Either way im going to be using a LG G2 unlocked.
