With a rapid deployment of a nationwide LTE footprint that reaches over 303 million Americans, “The City that Never Sleeps” is now lit up with T-Mobile’s best in-building coverage offering. __Extended Range LTE Coverage__ T-Mobile has been rolling out truckloads of new spectrum that carries the LTE signal twice as far from towers, for a massive coverage expansion – plus it’s four times better in buildings than before. In the past year, T-Mobile has aggressively rolled out airwaves known as 700 MHz in 246 major metro areas including cities such as Philly, Miami, and Washington D.C., so you can use your compatible phone to get great 700 MHz coverage while visiting friends and family in those cities. Extended Range LTE also enhances coverage in other areas already served by our strong 4G LTE network, so T-Mobile LTE customers there can experience better coverage in suburban and rural areas because the signal reaches further and penetrates deeper than before. So whether you are enjoying a night out in SoHo or have an important business meeting in Midtown -- your coverage doesn’t have to be sacrificed. Customers with 700 MHz-compatible devices can already see the benefits. Check your device compatibility or upgrade through JUMP!
