Tello's 15GB plan for 1 line costs $24 per month.

It rides on the T-Mobile network for coverage.

It includes unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and 15GB of high-speed data per month. The data is shut off after you reach your high-speed allotment. You can use up to all 15GB of data as hotspot data. Video streams at 480p quality.

The Tello 15GB plan has deprioritized data. Having deprioritized data means you may temporarily experience slower speeds during times when the cellular network is busy. You'll resume getting the fastest speeds available when the network is no longer busy.

Taxes and fees are extra on this plan. I estimate they will add another $2.34 to the price. Your total montly bill will be about $26.34 per month.

Overall, I do not recommend the Tello 15GB plan. It is too expensive for the features and data you get.
