(Reuters) - T-Mobile US Inc said on Thursday it added more monthly-bill-paying phone subscribers than expected during the second quarter, helped by higher demand for 5G-related services and devices driven by remote working and learning trends.

The wireless carrier's subscriber growth also got a boost from its stores reopening and the customer base from its acquired peer Sprint.
