T-Mobile has sent out invitations for a press event on March 26th, reports AllThingsD.
It's likely the company will detail the launch its LTE network which is said to be ready in Las Vegas and Kansas City. It also plans to shift away from subsidized devices for contract customers to 'value plans'.
Additionally, it's believed that T-Mobile will start carrying Apple devices in the near future; however, its unclear if that will be discussed at next week's event.
It is also expected to get its first Apple devices this year, but it seems somewhat unlikely that would come at this event. T-Mobile is also working to finalize its merger with MetroPCS. Regulators have approved the deal, with a shareholder vote slated for April.

I choose tmobile because there low rates on plans cheaper then sprint. There service for connection is fast even on 4g ifs 15 can't complain. Only problem I have with tmobile is there terrible customer service. Talking them is like talking to a brick wall.

I had AT&T for 8 long dropped call, no service years and I'm now on T-Mobile. I've used their service for almost 2 years and had only 1 dropped call and 5 bar service everywhere I've been (Minneapolis, Chicago, Indianapolis). I have a Note 2 now but prior to that an iPhone 3GS with the same results. T-Mobile rocks!

I can talk and surf the web on my HTC One S on T-Mobile. I have proven this many times, showing that AT&T isn't the only carrier with this capability.

I can also talk and surf the web at the same time on my iPhone 5. The network is great now that they enabled 4G in most areas.

T-Mobile has been telling their customers that the iPhone is coming for years. I just sold my unlocked iPhone 4S 32GB for $499 to use elsewhere. Hopefully, this event finally brings the iPhone to the carrier.

My family and I use iPhones on T-Mobile and we are paying much less than what we were paying at AT&T. In our case, the savings are definitely worth it.

I hope the upcoming press event focuses on expanding T-Mobile's coverage and improving service reliability across more cities.

I don't know about you but T-Mobile works perfect in my area (LA).
