T-Mobile has quickly become a dominant force in the mobile world, though it is far from your only choice. Not only are there two other major networks, but there are also plenty of smaller carriers that run on T-Mobile’s network. Then there’s US Mobile, which stands out on its own, thanks to its new status as the so-called “super carrier.”

US Mobile is the only prepaid carrier that can switch between all three major networks. While the process isn’t necessarily instantaneous, it can be very helpful and grants the carrier a level of flexibility unseen elsewhere. So, how does US Mobile compare to T-Mobile? Good question. Let’s dive in and take a closer look at US Mobile vs T-Mobile.

T-Mobile vs US Mobile: Pricing and value

  • Winner: US Mobile

T-Mobile has a reputation for offering better pricing than the other two major US carriers, though it’s dropped the ball a bit recently as its pricing has increased significantly in recent years. The cheapest T-Mobile plan starts at $50 for one line and offers a relatively barebones experience with no perks and even lower priority than some of its more expensive plans. There are ways to get T-Mobile’s service even cheaper, as five lines on its Essential plan will run you as low as $24 per line, but keep in mind that this doesn’t include taxes and fees.
