I'm curious how it works both in Brooklyn and other places. I'm generally always local. But sometimes go far and don't want service to disappear.
does anyone have experience with TMobile?

How does it work in the catskills?

I don't live in New York anymore but I did and had T-Mobile there for 9 years. I never had any issues in Brooklyn, Queens or Five Towns.
In the Catskills it's terrible - no service in a lot of places (I was there this past summer). I'v heard that Verizon is the only reliable carrier in that area.

You get what you pay for. T-Mobile is much cheaper than Verizon and AT&T, and in the NYC area it works perfectly fine. In more rural areas such as the Catskills, it's spottier.

We use T Mobile and it works fine locally (Lakewood). But I also found it spotty in very rural areas. If you travel a lot or spend the summer in the country, maybe it won't work for you.
