In this test, the Un-carrier merged six 5G channels of mid-band spectrum – two channels of 2.5 GHz Ultra Capacity 5G, two channels of PCS spectrum and two channels of AWS spectrum – creating an effective 245 MHz of aggregated 5G channels.\n\n\nT-Mobile is the leader in 5G, delivering the country’s largest, fastest and most awarded 5G network. The Un-carrier’s 5G network covers more than 330 million people across two million square miles — more coverage area than AT&T and Verizon combined. 300 million people nationwide are covered by T-Mobile’s super-fast Ultra Capacity 5G with over 2x more square miles of coverage than similar offerings from the Un-carrier’s closest competitors.\n\n\nFor more information on T-Mobile’s network, visit T-Mobile.com/coverage.\n\n\nFollow @TMobileNews on X, formerly known as Twitter, to stay up to date with the latest company news.\n\n\nSee 5G device, coverage, & access details at T-Mobile.com\n\n\nAbout T-Mobile\n\n\nT-Mobile US, Inc.
