T-Mobile would like people to believe that it’s newest ONE plan is the best one that you can ever subscribe too as it offers unlimited everything. Well, except that you can only stream videos up to 480p and if you prefer to have better quality streaming, you’d have to pay an additional $25. Well, some of their loyal subscribers weren’t very impressed with this and they let their carrier know about it. This has reportedly gotten T-Mobile to add a few more incentives to the additional cost, and now officially calling it the ONE Plus Plan.
Obviously, this new development wasn’t part of their original plan when they unveiled the ONE plan which offers unlimited text, calls, and 4G LTE connection without a data cap, all for $70 on your first line. However, the caveat was that your video streaming was automatically downgraded to 480p and that your tethering is limited to 2G only. If you wanted to watch in HD, you have to pay $25 more and if you wanted higher speeds for tethering, you shell out $15 for every 5GB of 4G data consumed.
And so now T-Mobile is adding a few more features to the additional $25 per month and calling it the ONE Plus plan. Aside from HD streaming, you will also now get unlimited 4G LTE tethering and also double the data speeds in the 140 Simple Global countries, in case you travel often to any of them. Plus, those on the regular ONE plan will get 3G tethering instead of 2G. You can also choose to purchase an HD day pass at $3 per 24 hours, in case you just occasionally want to watch streaming on HD.
The ONE and ONE Plus plans will be launched on September 1 instead of the original September 6. While existing subscribers won’t be forced to move to these new plans, those who are new postpaid customers will have to choose between the two. It will also be available soon for prepaid customers.
