We don't recommend Optimum Mobile Unlimited for 1 line. There are similar plans with the same or more data at a better price.
Description
Optimum Mobile Unlimited gives you 20GB of high-speed data on T-Mobile's network for $45 a month. It gets cheaper with more lines: four lines cost $120, or $30 per line. For comparison, T-Mobile's own Essentials plan costs $60 a month before taxes.
After 20GB, speeds slow to 512Kbps. The hotspot is limited to 5GB. Video streams at 480p, and your data is deprioritized. Taxes and fees are extra.
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 Optimum Mobile Unlimited if: you use a moderate amount of data and are signing up several lines.
