5G Strategies of T-Mobile US, Sprint Hinge on Merger

“‘I’m leaning more toward yes than no. I think the federal backing is going to help with this decision,’ Vachon said, noting that the DoJ and Federal Communications Commission already reached agreements with the companies and signed off on the transaction. Vachon is convinced that the merger is beneficial for competition. T-Mobile US will remain a disruptive player in the market, regardless of the outcome, and Sprint ‘hasn’t been very much of a threat’ and if it were to leave the market it wouldn’t have much of an impact on T-Mobile’s strategy, he said.” — SDxCentral
