Smartest cellular switch of the year: Metro by T-Mobile

Metro by T-Mobile, a leading provider of wireless services, has announced two new prepaid plans aimed at offering affordable yet reliable nationwide service for customers with varying data needs.

The first plan, the $40 Starter Plus, is an unlimited plan that includes 35GB of high-speed data per month. After this limit, data speeds may be slowed during network congestion. This plan does not include mobile hotspot data but comes with a 5-year price guarantee to protect against price increases.

For a more budget-friendly option, Metro by T-Mobile also offers a $25 BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) plan. This plan provides unlimited talk, text, and data for $25/month when you bring your own phone. While detailed benefits such as high-speed data caps or hotspot allowances are not explicitly stated, this plan offers basic unlimited service.

Both plans operate on T-Mobile’s network, providing the same nationwide coverage and 5G access as T-Mobile postpaid customers since Metro by T-Mobile uses T-Mobile’s towers. This ensures generally strong network coverage with access to T-Mobile’s newer 5G technology.

Signing up for either plan requires setting up AutoPay and registering online. The first month's cost for either plan is $30, after which it drops to $25/month with AutoPay. It's worth noting that taxes and fees are included in the $25 BYOD plan's monthly cost.

Metro by T-Mobile does not require contracts for either plan, and there is no activation fee for either option. The free phone options include the Samsung Galaxy A16 or Moto G Power. The $40 plan's rate is locked in for five years, and the $25 BYOD plan's rate is also locked in for the same period.

Switching to Metro by T-Mobile does not incur any surprises, as the company guarantees that the price for the $40 plan will not increase for five years. These plans target prepaid customers looking for affordable but reliable nationwide service with options for basic to higher data needs.

In summary: - $40 Starter Plus Plan: Unlimited talk, text, 35GB high-speed data, no hotspot, 5-year price guarantee. - $25 BYOD Unlimited Plan: Unlimited talk, text, data on your own device, budget option with fewer published perks. - Network: Both plans use T-Mobile’s network, including 5G coverage and nationwide availability.
