T-Mobile's Unlimited plan is $85 per month.
Taxes and fees are included in the price.
The plan includes unlimited minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited of data per month. You get truly unlimited data that will not slow down based on how much data you use. You can use up to 40GB as hotspot data.
T-Mobile uses the T-Mobile networks to provide coverage.
This plan has priority data.
Priority data gives you slightly faster data speeds during times when the network is busy. This includes being at sports games, stadiums, concerts, airports, or other crowded areas where a lot of people are on their phones. Keep in mind that a lot of people using the network at the same time will still slow down data speeds for everyone, regardless if you have priority data or not.
Video streams at Full Speed on this plan.
That's fast enough for watching videos at about 4K UHD resolution.
T-Mobile's Unlimited plan also supports:
You can add a smartwatch to this plan for $10 per month.
You can add a tablet line to this plan for $20 per month.
Overall, I recommend T-Mobile's Unlimited plan. I think it is a great overall value in terms of its price, its features, and how much high-speed data is included.
Get an extra 10GB of 4G LTE / 5G high-speed hotspot data to use each month. The add-on is $10 per month per line.
