was just at the bar and saw a new tmobile ad. They promise not to throttle anyone for the high use of a few.

Shrug. I bailed back in 2013, for TMO's unlimited data. No throttling either.

I really wish Tmobile had better service. Go away from my home in 3 directions, I lose signal. Only if I take a straight shot to the city do we have a steady signal. Really sucks. If our car breaks down in any other direction we are screwed. Thank god I still have Verizon. Thinking of going to ATT, though. They have coverage in all directions were I live.

No, they don't.

Well apparently T-mobile has a new 80 dollar unlimited tier I had no idea about, because before all their unlimited data plans were all throttled after 5gb.

If only they had service at greater than 4 steps away from a major city limit

Nope, I had their unlimited back when it was $70, and I was never throttled. It was true unlimited.

I've been with T-Mobile (family plan) for at least 6+ years and not sure if I should switch carriers or not......I'm looking to get my first Android Smartphone (midrange like a Motorola Moto G or X) as well......I do like the specs+price on these.

I'm just not sure if I should switch carriers for the phone I get OR stay with T-mobile and pick an Android phone that T-Mobile fully supports? (I currently have a free 3GB data plan and pay about $125 per month for both phones).
