While I’ve used T-Mobile-based prepaid brands in the past, I’ve generally favored AT&T or Verizon-based networks, since the area where I live has historically had poor T-Mobile performance. Recently, I learned that T-Mobile’s service had improved locally, so I decided to test it out for myself. One of the first options I picked up was Metro by T-Mobile, mainly because I’d never really had any firsthand experience with it.

Previously, my impression of Metro was that it was a lot like Total and Cricket, only somewhat worse. After all, Total and Cricket are similarly priced, and yet they at least offer higher-priority data on their more expensive plans. I’ve now come to realize that much of my earlier impression had more to do with T-Mobile’s performance in my area than with any real failing on Metro’s part. Simply put, I was wrong about Metro by T-Mobile.
