What about if you get out of the city and head towards the boonies? Like that area between Springfield and Worcester can be shoddy with all networks but I'd love to hear from you on it.

Haven't been there in years so don't know. I know I generally get better service and 5g then verizon users.
Keep in mind mint mobile uses t-mobiles network. So anywhere they cover you will get service

I have t-mobile. Taking backroads up from Worcester to Deerfield I lost coverage for maybe 15 or so minutes on 122 in the middle of nowhere.

The Quabbin area is an incestuous hellhole of morlocks?

It's called Ware, but yes.

extremely poor wherever they have trees or farms

I also have had good luck with them. I believe they currently have a Black Friday sale going.

mint is actually useless in a lot of charlton, and especially any place with a moderate amount of trees, or farms. i only go to these places during the workday, but i would never buy mint if i didn't like in a place like worcester or auburn

Not Mint, but I switched to Visible a few months ago. No problems to report!

Same! I switched to Visible from Verizon, and have had no issues with coverage...and the whole $25/month for unlimited everything doesn't hurt either.

I have had it for two years. Works great.

I have it, works well. It's the T-Mobile network which is not bad "out in the boonies"

Works great even in the boonies

Didn’t work reliably for me when visiting nearby northeastern CT. Antidotally I seemed to hit more dead zones when driving around too. But you can turn on wifi calling which may help in some cases. It was easy enough to switch to, then switch out for me. Definitely worth a shot given the price.

I started using mint when I lived near the cape. moved to the auburn/Worcester line a couple months ago and it's been working just about the same
