Perfect cable replacement
Dropped Cox for T-Mobile and couldn't be happier. $50/month flat, no caps, no equipment fees, no contract. Speeds average around 200 Mbps which is plenty. The occasional slowdown during peak hours is minor compared to the savings.

Good backup but not primary
I use T-Mobile as a backup when my main cable goes down. The speeds are inconsistent - sometimes 250 Mbps, sometimes 40 Mbps. The latency is higher than wired options which makes gaming frustrating. Fine for streaming though.

Finally ditched cable
Was paying $90+ for cable internet with a data cap. Switched to T-Mobile and I'm paying $40 with my Go5G discount. Speeds are great in my area - consistently 200+ Mbps. No data caps, no contract, no equipment fees. Game changer.

Great value, speed varies
For $50/month with no caps, T-Mobile Home Internet is a steal. My speeds range from 100 to 350 Mbps depending on the time of day. Evening slowdowns are noticeable but it handles Netflix and Zoom fine. Setup literally took 10 minutes.
