Just wanted to add that you do get deprioritized over TM, so it might be slow especially in crowded places (i.e. concerts).
I'm on Mint. I was at a big conference last week and noticed this happening.
Crowded places probably have 5G so the deprioritization would not be significant. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
I can't speak to 5G but my Mint 4G service was non-existent when I was at a concert. It was otherwise great the other 99.99% of the time fwiw. Been a user for ~7 years
Follow-up question: When you say 4G service was non-existent, did your phone show you had four bars but no messages would go through, or was it more like you had one bar / no service?
Cannot recall. Just remember that texts/calls were impossible so I couldn't link up w/ people I was looking for.
