Tmobile is better than straight talk. The internet is faster, you still get customer service, and you get the entire network instead of 70% of it like straight talk.

It's $5/month more and they throttle your data after 500 MB.http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/

exactly what were you looking at?

The plans are 30,50,60,70. All unlimited data, just different throttles.

If you get on a contract plan they brought back true unlimited.

I had straight talk and it offers service tru at&t obviously and t-mobile also and had better coverage with the at&t straight talk sim than the t-mobile sim.. I dumped them both and now have a different company.

Depends on the carrier. Many prepaid carriers do not support high-end smartphones, which, now, typically has MicroSIMs

It will on Tmobile. They dont care what phone u use as long as its GSM. If its not Tmobile or pentaband 3G, you wont have 3g/4g though.

Yeah, but how much do you pay for phones? It all balances out

you have to buy your phone means no subsidies but that makes everything else cheaper. i have a corporate plan so apart from 6GB data i also get unlimited CUG (closed user group), means i get unlimited minutes for calling people in my company.

@ bfrenz I guess u havent gone overseas ? . They have 3G and its fast. Even mexico they dnt have LTE but there 3G is faster than most 3G networks in the US its like t-mobile running at 42mbps hspa+ in mexico so no need for LTE sure they announced LTE for this year. So yea other places like india mexico etc have 3G or 4G not only the US ..
