America’s always generous leading “Un-carrier” is even more full of surprises than usual lately, unveiling not one but two awesome new feature-packed 5G plans, throwing yet another batch of free lines at pretty much all of its customers, extending the hugely popular T-Mobile Tuesdays program to Metro, and quietly beefing up the perks of its ultra-low-cost Connect options, all in the space of a little over a month.
Of course, your 15 or 25 bucks a month will continue to buy unlimited talk and text in addition to the bumped-up data buckets, which by the way include both 4G LTE and 5G network access.
It’s also worth highlighting that this data allotment enhancement seems to be unrelated to T-Mobile’s solemn vow of adding 500MB to your ultra-affordable Connect plan every year through at least 2025 at no extra charge. In other words, if you signed up for a prepaid Connect plan at some point last year, you should be getting this 500MB upgrade now and another identical one when passing the 12-month mark on your dirt-cheap line of service.
