Boost Mobile, known for its budget-friendly phone plans, is shaking up the mobile carrier landscape with a significant expansion of its 5G network and aggressive pricing strategies. The company is now offering faster speeds, competitive pricing, and enticing deals, making it a serious contender for both budget-conscious and tech-savvy consumers.
T-Mobile has announced its acquisition of US Cellular, a regional carrier known for its strong presence in rural areas. The deal, valued at $4.4 billion, will allow T-Mobile to enhance its 5G network coverage in underserved regions, adding to its existing nationwide reach. US Cellular customers will have the option to transition to T-Mobile’s plans, with no switching costs or forced migrations. The acquisition is expected to close in mid-2025 subject to regulatory approval.
