T-Mobile could abolish phone contracts later this month

Man this would be big for them if they were to do this and make the rest of the carriers take notice.

It would be a good transition, lower phone rate with a loan payment. That way if you kept your phone longer you could save money on your phone plan.

It would however hit the hardware manufacturers hard. If you could save $20/month by not upgrading people would stretch out the upgrade cycle. Watch out Apple and Samsung!

When this first came out, about the end of last year, I pointed out that this is how most of the world operates, with no phone subsidies and no contracts.

It's be fine with this.

Just means more used CDMA handsets flooding the market, that Verizon & Sprint won't allow on their networks.

Faster Speeds is a good thing.

Not that impressive IMO. I see 20Mbits/second on Verizon in an area with a lot of LTE devices in use.

T-Mobile will reportedly detail iPhone plans at its 'Uncarrier' event tomorrow

T-Mobile has been busy lately.

Nothing they are doing is fixing their biggest problem, coverage. In an area they have a good signal they can be better priced than ATT or Verizon. But stray from that area and it's only 911 service way too often. But with their new no contract plan, and not having subsidized phones, along with throttling, I would not jump to any conclusion they are better. Perhaps if you keep your phone much longer than people tend to now.

I think it's great too see them doing this I think it will make the rest think about how they do things.

Is T-Mobile finally a real threat to AT&T and Verizon?

[meStevo]

Yeah, not interested in leaving Verizon but interested in how the carriers will respond to the competition.
