I thought the two networks used different technologies - curious how they managed to merge them.

3G and 4G are different techs but neither had really deployed 5G at the point of merger. All the original Sprint 5G sites are being converted to T-Mobile 5G tech. About a 1/3 of sprint 5G phones are (were?) being dropped from T-Mobiles 5G access.

I am just thinking..When you buy an iPhone straight from Apple before the merger, it'd work fine on either TMobile or Sprint. This means the iPhone must have had all frequencies for both companies already. So, I'm guessing Tmobile works best with phone that have that type of technology and was compatible with both pre-merger?

Both use VoLTE. Customers can currently roam on the opposite network.
But as the merger chugs along, T-Mobile is slowly switching Sprint SIMs to T-Mobile SIMs since Sprint SIMs aren't compatible with certain T-Mobile features.
