To be honest, I think this is already the case for many Europeans, as there is almost always coverage.
- mh- 3y agohere in the States, the only time I've been without >=LTE cell service in the last few months was on a plane (in the air), and in the depths of NYC subways.
- jabroni_salad 3y agoI take my vacations in the northwoods and barely get signal there. Lots of trees and no mountains to park a tower on. The cabin has a landline because you aren't gonna call 911 otherwise. There's also some hilly terrain in northeast iowa where you just can't keep a phone call unless you stop your car. The second you crest the peak you lose line of sight.
- varenc 3y agoTokyo and Seoul both have massive subways system but unlike NYC they seem to have figured out how to give you service even in the tunnels. (Mercifully though all NYC stations at least have service)
- GaggiX 3y agoHere in Italy I also have full signal in the metro (at least the ones I have been), no idea how.
- LeafItAlone 3y agoI have parts of my road (in the US) that can’t get any signal.
- danhor 3y agoAt least in germany this isn't the case. The cell coverage on trains is almost a meme by now (even though it's overstated) and and small communities/other attractions in very rural areas (rural for germany, a highway is still usually <50km away) often have very marginal to no cell coverage.
