using 200 MHz of C-band spectrum to provide “remarkable” 5G speeds
and performance.
With the trial now completed, Verizon can begin commercial deployment
“in the near future,” according to a spokesperson. The company is
still on track to cover 175 million people with C-band by the end of
this year.

Well, the self-ascribed Un-carrier is gearing up for another legal battle, this time with AT&T, as the latter has made it clear it is unhappy over its competitor's recent marketing campaign alleging that AT&T and Verizon don't offer senior discounts unless they live in Florida. https://www.androidpolice.com/att-suing-t-mobile-over-seniors-ad-campaign/ |
