    Very Incorrect Article:
    – T-Mobile LTE covers 269 markets
    – T-Mobile 15+MHz LTE covers 16 markets.

      Sorry — I guess the headline wasn’t clear enough. We updated it. But there’s nothing wrong with the body of the article.

    Has anyone in the Tampa area mentioned that wideband seems to be non functional? I have not seen any difference since getting the S5 and I’m wondering why no one at T mobile has any knowledge of this either
