We don't recommend Metro $40 Unlimited for 1 line. There are similar plans with the same or more data at a better price.
Description
Metro $40 Unlimited gives you unlimited data on T-Mobile's network for $40 a month, with taxes and fees included. It gets cheaper with more lines: four lines cost $100, or $25 per line. A smartwatch line is included. For comparison, T-Mobile's own Essentials plan costs $60 a month before taxes.
There's no hotspot. Video streams at 480p, and your data is deprioritized. There's a $25 activation fee.
For unlimited data on the same T-Mobile network for less, our top pick is Mint Mobile Unlimited Annual: $30 a month when you pay for a year upfront, with a 20GB hotspot. If you'd rather pay month to month, Metro Unlimited $30 BYOD is $30 a month with taxes included.
Consider Metro $40 Unlimited if: you want unlimited data and are signing up several lines.
