AT&T network outage affects 70,000 customers — what happened. This month's wireless industry news has shifted the competitive landscape, and we've updated our plan comparison table to reflect the latest pricing and availability.
Here's a quick summary of the best value plans available right now:
Best unlimited under $30: Visible ($25/mo on Verizon 5G) and Mint Mobile ($30/mo on T-Mobile 5G, billed annually) remain our top picks for no-frills unlimited service.
Best for families: US Mobile's multi-line plans offer the best per-line pricing when you add 2+ lines. Their Unlimited Starter plan drops significantly per line as you add more.
Best for light users: Tello's pay-for-what-you-use model starts at $10/mo. If you use less than 5GB/month, you shouldn't be paying for unlimited.
Best senior plan: Consumer Cellular continues to offer excellent value for 55+ customers with AARP discounts and US-based support. Plans start at $20/mo.
The comparison table at the top of this page is updated regularly. Use the filter tabs to narrow down plans by category — unlimited, budget, seniors, families, or international. Click any plan to go directly to the carrier's signup page.
