T-Mobile's New Unlimited Calling Plan

For several months, Sprint had the best deal in wireless when it came to all you can eat plans. Now, T-Mobile has thrown their hat in the ring. So, what is this new plan all about? If I were to put it into one word, it would be "value". Now we will compare these plans to see the differences and which is the better value for you.

T-Mobile's new unlimited everything plan is priced at $79.99 per month for an individual line of service. With this, you get unlimited talk, unlimited text, and 2GB of data (which for most users is unlimited). One advantage of getting this T-Mobile plan now is the fact that AT&T has purchased T-Mobile pending government approval. This means that your coverage area will grow beyond just T-Mobile's and will eventually include AT&T towers for better overall service.

So how does this compare to Sprint's Any Mobile Anytime Plan? The Sprint plan gives you 450 minutes to call land lines and unlimited calling to ALL cell phones. Given that most people are abandoning their land lines and going to just cell phones, this isn't a huge advantage for T-Mobile, but it is a small advantage. The Sprint plan gives you unlimited texting which is the same as the T-Mobile plan, making this a wash. Finally, Sprint has true unlimited data where T-Mobile gives you 2GB of data. For most people this really doesn't matter, however, it is still a small advantage for Sprint.

So when matching them, how does the cost per month come into play? For non data devices you can get the Sprint unlimited plan for $69.99 per month. If you have a Smartphone you will be charged an extra $10 per month making the total cost on the Sprint plan $79.99 per month, the same as the T-Mobile plan.

So here is the scoop. If you don't want a Smartphone, but still want texting and the Internet included, the Sprint plan is a better value for most users since they will save $10 per month. If you want a Smartphone or Android phone and use tons of minutes and more than 450 of them per month are to land lines, T-Mobile is the clear choice for you. The one weakness of the T-Mobile plan is it doesn't offer true unlimited data like the Sprint one does. If you are a heavy data user you have to go with Sprint here.

Well, T-Mobile has given price conscience consumers another great value when it comes to unlimited calling plans. Now it is up to you to decide which of these plans is right for you.
