T-Mobile is: AC-1900
This one is: AC-2600
https://techprojournal.com/ac1900-vs-ac2600/
The truth is that both will work for 98% of the people, and they would not be able to tell the difference. The question that you should ask yourself are:
what are the things that are important to me? For example, I like the Asuswrt-Merlin and the ability to upgrade software regardless of the manufacture support. My ISP speed is about 85mbps, so it makes no difference is my router is 200mbps faster.
do I want to spend another $34.20 to get a bit newer hardware?
Stability and reliability. I have had many brands of routers over the last 20 years, most will last 2-3 years before needing replacement. Asus AC-1900 is quite the opposite, I have had it (refurbished) setup in my house, parents and sisters (6+ years now), and the thing just keep going.

It says MediaTek MT7621 after I flashed it to DD-WRT, not sure what it is before. DD-WRT also claims it's NetGear 6800 when it's 7450. But doesn't matter that much since it's not a new router

Tip: Add $0.80 worth of filler for free shipping - here is a link for 2x of iodized salt

Downsides:
1. It is AC and not AX (newer standard)
2. Sometimes it keeps dropping my connections until I reboot it.

Hard Pass.

Also, the vast majority of people won't see any benefit with wireless AX. Wifi 6E might be worth it, but not vanilla 6.

I can't find if any custom firmware can be put on this model. I always like that option to put on a third party firmware incase the factory firmware is being buggy or they stop updating it. Currently I have dd-wrt working on a Netgear R6700 that never seems to need a reboot. And I just put openwrt on a Asus RT-ACRH13 that was dropping the 5gz channel constantly with factory firmware. Now with openwrt I haven't had any issues, but its only been a month.
A quick google search doesn't pull up any third party firmware available for this model.
But after the CM500 refurbished from Walmart I'd have no concerns buying another item refurbished from them.
