T-Mobile's New Experience Plans Offer More Perks and a 5-Year Price Guarantee at a Lower Price

T-Mobile's Experience plans are currently available as two separate tiers. The "Experience More" plan offers 3 lines for $140 per month with AutoPay (otherwise $185 per month), plus taxes and fees. The "Experience Beyond" plan offers 3 lines for $180 per month with AutoPay (otherwise $230 per month). The benefits for each plan are as follows:

1. T-Mobile Experience More ($140/mo with AutoPay)

• 5-year price guarantee
• Upgrade-ready every two years
• Unlimited talk and text
• Unlimited 4G & 5G LTE premium data
• Netflix (standard with ads) subscription included
• Apple TV+ subscription included
• 60GB of high-speed mobile hotspot data
• Unlimited text, 15GB of high-speed data in Canada & Mexico
• Unlimited text, 5GB of high-speed data in 215+ countries & destinations
• Full-flight texting and Wi-Fi with streaming where available

2. T-Mobile Experience Beyond ($180/mo with AutoPay)

• 5-Year price guarantee
• Upgrade-ready every year
• Unlimited talk and text
• Unlimited 4G & 5G LTE premium data
• T-Satellite with Starlink service (through end of 2025)
• Netflix (standard with ads) subscription included
• Apple TV+ subscription included
• Hulu (standard with ads) included
• Unlimited mobile hotspot included
• Unlimited text, 30GB of high-speed data in Canada & Mexico
• Unlimited text, 15GB of high-speed data in 215+ countries & destinations
• Full-flight texting and Wi-Fi with streaming where available
• Watch & tablet lines just $5/month

The "Experience More" plan is more than sufficient for most people, since you get unlimited talk, text, and premium 5G and 4G LTE data for $45 per month (with autopay) plus a 5 year guarantee and both Netflix and Apple TV+ subscriptions. The 2 year upgrade path is perfectly reasonable since most people don't replace their phone every year.

If, however, you do like to be at the forefront of smartphone tech, or you plan to connect an additional device like your tablet or Apple Watch, and/or you travel often (and could benefit from a higher international data cap or Starlink accessibility), then the "Experience Beyond" plan is an attractive option at $60 per month (with autopay).

Did you know? T-Mobile offers incentives for switching carriers

As part of its Family Freedom initiative, T-Mobile will cover up to $800 per line to help pay off your AT&T and Verizon phones (even if they’re locked) and a new smartphone when trading in that device. Families score with deals like four flagship smartphones on Us and four new voice lines for just $100/month on Essentials.

These plans with no yearly contract - What does that mean?

Not to be confused with your phone's financing plan

T-Mobile's "Experience" are postpaid plans that don't lock you into any sort of yearly contact, so you are free to cancel your service at anytime. Keep in mind, however, that if you finance a phone through T-Mobile, you are still required to make payments on the phone for however long the contract entails, usually for a length of 24 months. Although you can opt to pay your phone off early, T-Mobile often offers discounts on their phones in the form of bill credits that are applied every month. So, paying a phone off early could mean you forfeit the bill credits for the remainder of the term. As per the norm, common sense dictates that you read the fine print before committing to any form of contractual obligation.
