Description
T-Mobile's Essentials Saver plan runs on T-Mobile for coverage.
It costs $50 per month for 1 line.
It comes with unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and unlimited high-speed data per month. You get 600Kbps of hotspot data. Video streams at 480p quality.
Data is deprioritized, so speeds may slow during network congestion.
Taxes and fees are extra. Expect roughly $5.29 more per month, bringing your total to about $55.29.
Overall, I do not recommend the T-Mobile Essentials Saver plan. It is too expensive for the features and data you get.
