T-Mobile Starlink satellite service is the main reason I moved from Verizon to T-Mobile. Verizon used to work great here (7-miles north of Old Town, FL) – but then they moved to 4G and service here became a dead spot. Used the old $20 Walmart flip-phones for Verizon, and when my 3G one went out early this year—all they had were 4G phones. Have fiber internet so the WiFi-calling worked.
Just registered as a T-Mobile Starlink beta tester—to test ‘satellite-powered text messaging’.
When I read about T-Mobile Starlink satellite service earlier this year, I checked out the phones they said would be compatible with the service, and moved my phone number to a T-Mobile account and got a “free” Galaxy A14 5G for the two-year contract. However, for the beta test – even tho the ‘Galaxy A14 5G supports 5G networks and various frequency bands, its compatibility with T-Mobile’s Starlink service during the beta phase would depend on whether it is included among the “optimized devices.”’ They don’t have a list of phones out for beta testing yet, plus limited spots for testers, so will wait ‘n see…
