Judge approves T-Mobile/Sprint merger

[sinsay]

Did Sprint ever upgrade their network/phones to allow voice and data at the same time? I know they have some shit called Calling PLUS, but does that actually work consistently for people when they aren't on wifi?

I had Sprint for most of my early 20's until I got a job required constant checking of emails...needless to say, missing out those emails when I was on the phone was fucking with my money and I had to switch. T-Mobile has been good to me, I do quite a bit of domestic traveling and haven't had issues with signal at all.

Nope same issue that Verizon has. Everyone I know on Sprint or Verizon can't browse the internet while on a call unless they're also connected to wifi and can't view MMS pics til after ending a call.

In order for this to hurt competition, that would have to mean that Sprint was competing. Their service is garbage, that's why they offer you 10 free phones plus a bj if you come to them.

Bruh...nothing but FACTS!!!

Sprint does voice and data on devices made within the past three years.

They have to enable the feature by turning on VOLTE.

I'm more concerned with my cable bill climbing to the fucking heavens. Cell phones are entirely dependent on where you are. I've stood next to people and they had nothing and I had full bars, stood next to people and I had nothing they had everything. I've had Sprint from the door and my grandfathered plan is ridiculous. Works for me but I'm in NYC so just about everything works.
