I know it’s a broad question, but I currently have T-Mobile and the price is alright but I have an iPhone 11 and looking to get a 16 Pro Max for myself and a 16 Pro. But, T-Mobile has mentioned it will mean an increase in my plan from $89 a month, for my current 2 iPhone 11’s and 2 Apple watches, to $180 monthly for 5G.
But, I’m getting older, so less deal savvy, not to mention aware of all the current cellphone carriers or what’s a deal these days… I would appreciate if anyone here could share their thoughts or recommendations on the matter. Seeing in the past, theres a large pool of wisdom hidden in here. TIA.
Just wanted to add that you do get deprioritized over TM, so it might be slow especially in crowded places (i.e. concerts).
I’m on Mint. I was at a big conference last week and noticed this happening.
Crowded places probably have 5G so the deprioritization would not be significant. (Correct me if I’m wrong)
I can’t speak to 5G but my Mint 4G service was non-existent when I was at a concert. It was otherwise great the other 99.99% of the time fwiw. Been a user for ~7 years
Follow-up question: When you say 4G service was non-existent, did your phone show you had four bars but no messages would go through, or was it more like you had one bar / no service?
Cannot recall. Just remember that texts/calls were impossible so I couldn’t link up w/ people I was looking for.
