Q: Is US Mobile considered a major carrier?
A: Hi joe, thanks for reaching out about Google Pixel 8a 5G Unlocked (128GB) Smartphone. While US Mobile itself is not considered one of the "major" carriers (Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T), it operates as a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO). This means that US Mobile doesn't own its own network infrastructure. Instead, it utilizes the networks of all three major carriers in the United States: Verizon: Branded as "Warp" on US Mobile. T-Mobile: Branded as "Light Speed" on US Mobile. AT&T: Branded as "Dark Star" on US Mobile. Therefore, when you use US Mobile, your service runs on the same towers and infrastructure as customers of these major carriers. The specific network you connect to depends on the US Mobile plan you choose and the coverage in your area. US Mobile even offers the ability to switch between these networks in some cases. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
