As 5G wireless services continue to slowly but steadily expand and improve across the nation, the overwhelming majority of US-based mobile phone users can reasonably expect to acquire a good old fashioned 4G LTE signal pretty much anywhere these days.
In theory, the first-of-its-kind map, which looks almost surprisingly easy to use, load up, and navigate, should show you exactly where you can get reliable service on AT&T, T-Mobile, US Cellular, and Verizon, thus helping you make an informed decision when thinking of switching from an operator to another or simply relocating.
Speaking of the user experience, that includes separate layers (colored slightly differently) for LTE data and LTE voice service for each carrier, which you can zoom in on to view across a certain area or search by entering specific addresses.
Of course, your actual “on-the-ground” cellular experience may not coincide with what the FCC is listing here, which represents expected “outdoor” and “stationary” coverage instead of the speeds you might register indoors or in a moving vehicle.
