In a bid to underscore their bigger rivals while also one-upping each other, T-Mobile and Sprint are both going to start offering unlimited data to users at much cheaper prices. The plans will come with caveats, however, though it can be difficult to argue with cheap, unlimited mobile surfing.
As Fortune reports, the CEO of Sprint, Marcelo Claure has done an impressive job bringing the company back on track. As a result of his efforts, the Telco is getting record numbers of new monthly users and the company’s stock prices have gone up a whopping 70 percent. Claure isn’t sitting on his laurels however and wants to maintain Sprint’s momentum by offering unlimited data for $60 a month.
According to Claure, the much smaller Telco is able to provide such a service because of the significant amount unused spectrum that it has, which then allows it to accommodate more users on unlimited data plans.
“You have to play your assets to your advantage,” Claure told Fortune. “Our number one asset is our spectrum.”
T-Mobile is also offering unlimited mobile surfing, though, at a more expensive $70 a month, CNET reports. Then again, the current plans that both companies are offering for unlimited surfing are at $95, and $25 is a significant reduction.
There are a few things that users will need to keep in mind about the new plans, including conditions attached to tethering on the part pf T-Mobile. Turning a device into a mobile hotspot will incur more charges from the Uncarrier, but it’s free with Sprint.
At 4G speeds, while tethering, T-Mobile offers 5GB a month for $15. Meanwhile, Sprint will offer the same data amount for nothing.
Looking at these comparisons, it’s clear that Claure’s company is offering the better deal. However, Sprint coverage does not extend everywhere, so only users who can access the Telco’s networks can take advantage of its price. For the rest, T-Mobile’s offer will have to do.
