Choosing the Best T-Mobile Plans
T-Mobile plans are some of the best and easiest to follow in the industry. Here is a run-down on their most popular plans.
Simple Choice Plan
T-Mobile uses the Simple Choice Plan instead of the annual service contracts it used to have. Inside the basic tier, a person will enjoy Music Freedom (endless music streaming), unlimited talk and text, and 2GB of data. The data, text and talk can all be used in Mexico and Canada at no extra charge.
The Music Freedom option is one that many people find attractive. It allows for unlimited streaming of music through Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music and more without burning through data limits. The Binge On feature (any 6GB or higher plan includes this for free) allows for unlimited video streaming with Hulu, Netflix, YouTube and other services.
The nice thing about T-Mobile is what happens if a user does go over any data limits. Instead of getting charged for overages, the network instead chooses to throttle data speeds. Although this throttling slows down data usage in a big way, it's a nice alternative to paying huge overage charges.
Combined with the network's Data Stash, a conservative data user on the 6GB or higher plan can rollover a healthy amount of data month to month.
<2GB T-Mobile Plan
At $50/month, it allows for unlimited texts and calls. This works best for someone with low data needs and who isn't planning to stream video. Since it does include Music Freedom, it's the right choice for music lovers.
6GB T-Mobile Plan
This costs $65/month and is one of the best plans offered in terms of overall value. 6GB of data all by itself is usually the perfect fit for most people. However, when Music Freedom and Binge On is considered, the value is quite good at this level of plan. This will work well for anyone planning to stream both music and video over their phone.
10GB T-Mobile Plan
Costs $80/month. If a person is sure they will burn up to 10GB above and beyond their music and video streaming usage, then this is the best plan to choose.
T-Mobile Family Plan
The T-Mobile family plan is called the T-Mobile One plan. This plan provides unlimited data, texts and calls. The cost is $75/month and comes with a discount for each additional line. Up to eight lines can be included on this plan.
Price breakdown:
- Line 1: $75/month
- Line 2: $55/month
- Lines 3-8: $25/month
This means a family of four will pay $180/month for its plan. A $5 discount per line is available through automatic payments, bringing the total cost down to $160/month.

T-Mobile Phones
T-Mobile has rapidly grown to become one of the most popular carriers in the U.S. with its no-contract attitude toward contract-carrier quality of phones and services. The neon pink named mobile provider blends the best of value and quality LTE wireless options. This winning formula has recently placed them ahead of Sprint and tied with Verizon as the third largest carrier in the country. Naturally, doing away with the constraints of a two-year contract has proven extremely attractive for customers who just didn't want to miss out on the competitive speeds, coverage and gamut of high-end smartphones that AT&T, Sprint and Verizon offer.

Consumer Cellular
There are many value wireless providers one can choose from when they're looking to spend a low dollar for the same great benefits that more expensive carriers offer.

Cell Phone Cases
It's worth protecting one's pocket communication device, especially if it costs hundreds to procure. While feature phones are neither as likely to be dropped nor as expensive to replace as smart phones, the latter usually has a wide selection of cases for the express purpose of protecting a rather fragile piece of expensive technology. The unwieldy profile of today's smart phones makes it easy for one to slip out of the user's hands, and the large, glass screens are the biggest problem when dealing with impacts. So often, people notice others' smart phones with spider cracks in the screen, and it's instantly clear how they got there: it must have been dropped...
