I'm envious!A 5G service that covers more than 60 % of the United States has appeared

I want to experience it!

One of the US mobile carriers T-mobile has launched a 5G network.This is the third start of the 5G service in the United States.

アメリカではすでにVerizon（ベライゾン）やSprint（スプリント）が5Gサービスを提供していますが（AT&Tは一部地域での一般向けと、ビジネス顧客向けに限定）、T-Mobileの5Gネットワークは600MHz帯を利用ます。この｢サブ6帯｣とも呼ばれる電波は、高速通信よりもカバーエリアにおいて利点がある方式です。

T-Mobile's 5G service covers 60%of the U.S. population and about 200 million, and can be used in more than 5,000 cities.In addition, it can be used with a standard T-mobile plan and does not need to pay an additional charge.You can check the cover area here, and the corresponding cities can be checked here.

Furthermore, according to the launch of this 5G service, T-Mobile has also started reservations for OnePlus 7t Pro 5g MCLAREN and Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5g.The release date is both December 6th, the price is $ 900 (about 98,000 yen) and the latter is $ 1300 (about 140,000 yen).In addition, there will be a transfer service from other carriers and another gift campaign if you purchase one.

In this announcement, the support of 5G services with T-Mobile's millimeter wave (mmwave) is not mentioned, and this launch is for early adapters.Nevertheless, it is a good thing to keep the promise of developing 5G services in the United States by the end of 2019.

In the future, the merger by T-Mobile and Sprint is scheduled, and the service area can be expanded.Therefore, it seems that it is not necessary to purchase a 5G compatible smartphone in a hurry.
