A decade ago, if I had told people that T-Mobile would eventually be considered the fastest network in the US and that the brand would become the de facto leader in many ways, I’m sure I would have had a hard time finding anyone who believed me.

Yet, here we are at the beginning of 2026, and slowly but surely we seem to be heading in this direction. In 2025, T-Mobile won several awards from major survey companies, including Ookla, and largely became known as the king of network speed. Even AT&T is finally striking harder at the competition, particularly T-Mobile.
