T-Mobile's $25 Unlimited Plan
New customers can score unlimited 5G data and international roaming, but only at Walmart and with major restrictions.
T-Mobile is offering a secret $25/month plan called Super Essentials Saver, which includes unlimited 5G data, 50GB of premium high-speed access, and unlimited 3G mobile hotspot usage. The plan also has coverage in Mexico and Canada, and unlimited texting from the US to over 215 countries.
The $25 price tag does not include taxes and fees, which typically add $5 to $8 per line. This brings the total cost to around $30 to $33 per month.
One of the major restrictions of the plan is that it is limited to a maximum of two lines, with no multi-line discount. This means that families or groups of more than two people will not be able to take advantage of the plan's low price.
The plan is also exclusive to new customers who sign up at a Walmart store. This means that existing T-Mobile customers and those who sign up online or in other stores will not be eligible for the plan.
In comparison to other plans, the Super Essentials Saver plan is significantly cheaper than Verizon's Simplicity plan, which costs $15 more per month. However, it is unclear how long the promotion will last, and there may be hidden downsides not immediately apparent.
## Why it matters The Super Essentials Saver plan is a tempting option for individuals or pairs looking for a low-cost phone plan with unlimited 5G data and international roaming. However, the plan's restrictions and exclusivity may limit its appeal to a wider audience. As the promotion duration is currently unclear, those interested in the plan should act quickly to take advantage of the offer.
## What happens next It remains to be seen how long the Super Essentials Saver plan will be available and whether T-Mobile will expand the plan to other customers or stores. For now, those interested in the plan can sign up at a Walmart store to take advantage of the low price and unlimited 5G data.
