Coverage Maps: Cell Phone Plan Carriers At A Glance

Want to find out which carrier offers the best cell phone coverage in the U.S.? You’ve come to the right place. 

We’ve analyzed cell phone coverage data across carriers to find out which one offers the best 4G and 5G service. Not surprisingly, we found that the country’s three largest providers—Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile—still wield the most powerful national networks. Simply put, AT&T has the largest 4G coverage network, while T-Mobile has the broadest 5G coverage footprint. 

There’s more to it than that, though, so read on as we detail the respective coverage maps of the nation’s largest carriers.

Cell Phone Coverage Factors

Here’s the not-so-secret-secret about network coverage: It’s hard to predict, and the best wireless coverage depends on many factors including:

• Your proximity to your carrier’s cell phone towers.
• The number of nearby cell phone towers owned and operated by your carrier.
• Interference between you and your carrier’s cell phone towers.

We’ve all experienced inconsistent cellular coverage from one side of a town to another. That’s why Navi coverage maps go beyond your zip code and let you input the precise address where you’ll be using your cell phone and need reliable connectivity.
