    Coverage Above and Beyond’ promises an end to dead zones — if you can wait

    By Mitchell Clark <https://www.theverge.com/authors/mitchell-clark> and
    Richard Lawler <https://www.theverge.com/authors/richard-lawler>

    T-Mobile says it’s getting rid of mobile dead zones, thanks to a new partnership with SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet <https://www.theverge.com/23181342/starlink-rv-review-trees-rain-speed-latency>,
    at an event <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzli-Ww26Qs> hosted by
    T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert and Elon Musk. With their “Coverage Above and Beyond” setup, mobile phones could connect to satellites and use a slice
    of a connection providing around 2 to 4 Megabits per second connection
    (total) across a given coverage area.
