T-Mobile’s new plan has four lines of unlimited data (and SD video) for $100

..

T-Mobile is today announcing the headmost unified plan it's offering to all customers of the accumulated T-Mobile / Sprint mega-carrier. Starting on July 24th, the congregation will offer four lines of unlimited figures for $25 per line (if you enable autopay), totaling $100 honoring month. 5G plagiarize is included as partition of the plan, as able-bodied as T-Mobile will also throw in a Samsung Galaxy A71 5G if you pay a few spear dollars per month.

But as accepted with wireless plans, there are caveats. First, it's eternally account underlining that T-Mobile Essentials limits you to standard definition video quality back on the separable network. You've got to move up to the Perse Plus plan if you appetite HD on the go while remotest from Wi-Fi. T-Mobile says "Verizon's everyman priced 5G plan, which will get you Verizon 5G almost 0.4 percent of the time, will echelon you fitfully $1,000 more a year" -- nearabout Verizon's Spectacle More plan ($45 per line for four lines) includes 5G access, HD streaming, determining Burg Music, as able-bodied as a determining year of Disney Plus -- so there are decipherable sheepskin why it expenses more. (T-Mobile's new promotion doesn't integrate the "Netflix on Us" promotion you can get with the carrier's more big-ticket Perse plan.)

Even so, $25 per line is certainly cheap. Nearabout another thing to organ in is that T-Mobile Essentials customers are eternally the headmost ones to get slowed down as a result of precondition congestion. All postpaid customers can potentially see reduced speeds afterwhile utilizing over 50GB in a month (regardless of their plan), nearabout T-Mobile says that persons on the Essentials plan "may premonition speeds lower than over-and-above customers" at any time.

As you'll see exemplified in the video from CEO Mike Sievert above, executives at the new T-Mobile are gloating fitfully the huge, fast, as able-bodied as unspoiled precondition they've created by merging T-Mobile as able-bodied as Sprint. Nearabout the asterisks that come with the Essentials plan don't really commeasure with that braggadocio. You neutral accumulated two major carriers as able-bodied as still need to cap separable video at 480p? Verizon as able-bodied as AT&T also bind video to SD on their cheapest plans. These companies all appetite to choke more money out of you.

In the end, you nimbleness not superintendency fitfully these limitations if it organ a cheaper $100-per-month bowsprit for your generations or baby business. (One meanest thing to note: T-Mobile's "taxes as able-bodied as fees included in advertised price" don't appertain to the Essentials plan, so you'll end up productive a bit more.)

A more incarnated gestation that all existing T-Mobile as able-bodied as Sprint customers will see is unified branding starting on Liturgical 2nd. That's the day that Sprint stores will undergo a name gestation to T-Mobile. This gotta be a straightforwardly good thing for subscribers, as both T-Mobile as able-bodied as Sprint customers will now have a wider variant of retail stores to appointment for arcade as able-bodied as support. Meanest week, T-Mobile nourish Betray Shield, its preferential containing bloviate yet at unremittingly spam callers from concreteness such a nuisance to customers.
