Basically, when they say that they did upgrades in your area, you do not know if it was one tower that was upgraded, or My city, which is just a mid sized city, was in that list I think something like 5 or 6 times.. Each time, they added a couple more towers with band 71 and 5G on them..
I did hear, or read, that they say that it can take a month or so to fully have it up and running, between installing the new hardware, running the new lines, and angling them, etc.. I am not sure what the exact time frame is though. Yay, more tiny towns no one heard of.
People from those urban centers travel, and they expect to have service wherever they go, so T-Mobile is fulfilling that demand. T-Mobile already had 5G service in Hennessey, Oklahoma, so the listed site is not an addition of new coverage, just bolstering what was already there.
T-Mobile launched Band 71 service across western Oklahoma 2 years ago but none of that has been upgraded to 5G, they are upgrading only the brand new Band 71 that covers the footprint of the Oklahoma City TV stations that vacated Mhz in February.

That said, there are certainly people who want to—for advanced camera features, for higher-quality screens on which to watch Netflix, or to impress others socially with a status symbol. Of course, both Apple and Samsung offer phones at lower prices.

Samsung covers the entire range of consumer price points with other phones outside the flagship Galaxy S and Galaxy Note product lines. Exactly what are users getting for going all the way? We've taken to calling today's flagship phones "glass sandwiches" because they have almost-all-display front sides made of glass, and generally these devices are all glass on the back, too except for certain camera components.
Thankfully, they typically use a material dubbed Gorilla Glass that is much stronger than, say, a drinking glass, and Gorilla Glass has improved in durability year after year. Those glass backs enable wireless charging, which isn't possible through some other common gadget materials. We've discussed materials at length before, and there aren't big changes on that front in the S20 phones compared to last year's S10 models. They feel nice, they look nice, but they're generally not that durable and they're fingerprint magnets.

Both of these phones have the same upsides and downsides. There are some newer developments worth highlighting. First up, Samsung has long made a marketing blitz of criticizing Apple for dropping the headphone jack from its phones starting back in But just over three years later, Samsung has also dropped the headphone jack in the Galaxy S line, launching its own AirPods competitors which also support iOS, by the way. Samsung was one of the last flagship phone-makers to take this leap. Below: Images from the Samsung Galaxy S20 announcement.
It might seem strange that the top-of-the-line phones typically lack something seemingly essential that cheaper phones sometimes still have—at least on the Android side of things. There are no longer any available iPhones with headphone jacks.
Many users agree wholeheartedly, but some don't, and the monetary cost of good wireless audio is steep. But that will likely change over the next year or so with the introduction of the first Bluetooth LE Audio devices , which will use a new Bluetooth audio standard that adopts some of the same benefits AirPods users have enjoyed. In terms of design differences between the Galaxy S series and iPhones, Samsung offers its flagships in three sizes: the S20 at 6.
The iPhone 11 Pro is available in 5. Below: A look at the design of the iPhone 11 Pro from our review. The Galaxy S phones have in-screen fingerprint readers, whereas the iPhone 11 Pro uses a sophisticated 3D sensor array that shares space with the front-facing camera to confirm that it's you trying to unlock the phone.

That 3D sensor array called TrueDepth involves a lot of components, and it's the reason for the noticeable "notch" at the top of the phone's screen. That notch contains a lot of hardware. By contrast, Samsung just has a regular front-facing camera in the S20, and it has avoided including a notch by essentially punching a small hole in the center-top of the display.
Whether you prefer a notch or a hole punch is surely a matter of preference, as is whether you prefer Apple's Face ID or Samsung's in-screen fingerprint authentication. You must login or create an account to comment. Skip to main content.
