I genuinely despise the massive hype surrounding new network rollouts. It gives them a blank, legally binding check to underdeliver on their network promises. When they tell you that you are getting 'up to' prioritized high-speed data, what they actually mean is they reserve the absolute right to slow your connection to an unusable crawl the second the local cell tower gets a little crowded during evening rush hour.
With incredibly massive rumors aggressively confirming that Apple is preparing a cheaper Vision Pro headset, carriers are absolutely terrified of a stalled iPhone upgrade cycle. Apple positioned the device online, this incredibly massive potential shift in consumer spending absolutely terrified Wall Street, completely sending massive telecom stocks into an absolute tailspin.
