TUCSON, Ariz. — January 22, 2024 — T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) is taking connectivity to the next level for hundreds of thousands across the city of Tucson.

One of the ways T-Mobile is making an immediate impact with recent upgrades is by introducing high-speed broadband, often-times called fixed wireless service, as an alternative to traditional broadband providers like Cable or Satellite. Today, T-Mobile 5G Home Internet is available in Tucson, providing an option for fast, reliable home internet that’s easy to set up and has no annual contracts or hidden fees. Plus, the Un-carrier simplifies business internet, enabling businesses to connect offices and locations nationwide.
