@Techmeme ..."seemingly 5G-capable...you'll see that there is no #5G indicator on the screen"... - from #TMobileUS calling #3G #hspa+ technology '4G' over a decade ago (and, consequently, acquiring the US 1st commercially available 'real' #4GLTE carrier #metropcs) to #att 's use of a '#5GE' icon when it was really 4G service since about three years ago, the US #telco knows a thing or two about 'seemingly capable indicators'...

Thank you, Captain Obvious! #att #5ge #fraud #lies #scam #marketing

Wow, #ATT. Your #5Ge really is utter garbage. #4G #falseadvertising #tmobile

Not sure that even Steve Jobs would have succumbed to this sham by #ATT. More than likely, he might have (*might* have) threatened giving preference to Verizon while still providing iPhones to other carriers and possibly even excluding ATT for iPhone.

Maybe.
