Why does my Skyicom device say T-Mobile?

Ever wonder why your Skyicom device says T-Mobile as the carrier? Great question! We're glad you asked. We're here to explain why your Skyicom device says T-Mobile, and how our network works.

Cellular networks are notoriously expensive to build and maintain. These networks require licenses, towers, regulatory approval, and much more, which all increase the cost.

Fun fact: in 2017 T-Mobile spent almost $8 billion dollars to acquire 1,500+ wireless licenses across the United States[1]. This doesn't even cover the investment required to build out the network infrastructure to support these licenses. 🤯

Additionally, cellular networks need to support users across the country. The contiguous 48 states span over 3.1 million miles[2]. That's a lot of ground to cover! 🌎

At Skyicom we believe our focus is best suited towards providing customers with the best possible service & affordable prices. Therefore, we've chosen to partner with T-Mobile to provide our customers with the best possible network experience at the lowest possible cost. Not only that, because we are able to focus more on our customers instead of building out an expensive network we can provide our customers with unique & special benefits that even T-Mobile isn't even able to offer. Talk about a great deal! 🤝
