US Mobile Supports All Three Networks But How Does That Work?

During the summer US Mobile announced it is now a super carrier", offering the ability to connect to all three major US cellular networks. There's been a lot of confusion about this new change and how it works. I've spent a few months with the carrier getting to know it for that very reason.In this short guide, we explain US Mobile carrier switching and how it works, as well as if it's as good as it sounds on paper and who it's best suited for.

The answer to whether it is worth it really depends on your needs.

It's also nice having the piece of mind to be able to switch anytime there's extra congestion or a network outage, like the big Verizon outage that recently was in the news.
