T-Mobile's Unlimited plan for 4 lines costs $140 per month.

It rides on the T-Mobile network for coverage.

It includes unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and unlimited high-speed data per month. You get 40GB of hotspot data. Video streams at 4K quality.

It is worth noting that the T-Mobile Magenta MAX Military plan includes priority data. Having priority data means you will get slightly faster data speeds during times when the cellular network is busy, such as at sports games, concerts, or during rush hour traffic.

All taxes and fees are included, so your grand total is just $140 per month.

Overall, I do not recommend the T-Mobile Magenta MAX Military plan. It is too expensive for the features and data you get.
