It seems that not everyone is ready for a change when it comes to the closure of the network, as T-Mobile has announced that they are delaying the closure of the Sprint CDMA as well. This is not the first time a legacy network has been delayed.

Just last month, T-Mobile announced that its shutdowns of the 3G UMTS network would not take effect until July 1. The report (via-XDA), shared in the Business section on the T-Mobile news website, states that the 3G CDMA network will be valid for another three months, from the first December of this year to March 2022.

T-Mobile also says nothing about the case. The company claims to be in the company of “partners” who have not “fulfilled their responsibility to help customers with this change.” Apparently, this is the backbone for Dish, who has repeatedly accused T-Mobile of competing with the closure of the CDMA network.

Dish acquired the prepaid business of Sprint and Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile back on July 1, 2020, and since then has not made much progress in the way of deploying its network. It has released a new plan and a new device, but the company also seems to have spent most of its time complaining about the closure of CDMA’s malicious CDMA, a network company that many of its customers still use.

T-Mobile goes on to say that the extension of the day will not have a financial impact on the business and that no delays will be added to the construction of 5G. They estimate that their extended 5G range includes 308 million people and 186 million covered by Ultra Capacity 5G. Hopefully, this will be the last time the legacy network ban has been delayed.
