Description

For $30 a month, UScellular Unlimited Basic (BYOD) gives you 100GB of high-speed data on T-Mobile's network. A smartwatch line is included. For comparison, T-Mobile's own Essentials plan costs $60 a month before taxes.

After 100GB, speeds slow to 1Mbps. Hotspot is a paid add-on. Video streams at 480p, and your data is deprioritized. Taxes and fees are extra.

For the best value on the same T-Mobile network, 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 UScellular Unlimited Basic (BYOD) if: you use a lot of data.
