AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon will work together to improve coverage for all of their customers | Infinium-tech
Today, AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon have announced a joint venture that aims to use satellite-based technologies to address coverage gaps, particularly in unserved and underserved communities.
This joint venture will expand mobile connectivity to customers of all three companies through joint investment using satellite-based direct-to-device technologies, wherever there are coverage gaps.

The official joint press release said the trio’s customers will have “a more seamless experience, especially in remote areas where traditional cell networks have limited or no service”.
The joint venture’s “collaborative approach” will “expand customer choice by bringing together IP and terrestrial spectrum and creating industry specifications” that will make everything work more smoothly.
At the moment it’s just “an agreement in principle”, so don’t drink the champagne just yet. If all goes well, coverage should improve for you regardless of which carrier you do business with, as the Big Three will pool their spectrum resources to increase capacity and help satellite providers reach more customers through a unified platform. Ultimately, dead zones will be virtually eliminated, and network performance will improve.
