T-Mobile

T-Mobile is making changes that will impact subscribers' monthly phone bills, increasing costs per line between $5 and $10 per month. Those on older T-Mobile smartphone plans may soon find themselves switched to a newer, more expensive plan without their consent. While these involuntary "upgrades" are coming, there is a way to prevent this. Users can opt-out of these plan changes, and keep their existing data plan moving forward.

T-Mobile launched a promotion to deliver free Apple TV+ for one year to its customers. New and existing Magenta and Magenta MAX customers, Sprint Unlimited Plus, Sprint Premium, and other eligible plans qualify for the deal. 12 months of Apple TV+ for free begins starting on August 25, 2021.

While 4G LTE supports peak download speeds of around 300 megabits per second (Mbps), average download speeds vary by carrier and are generally under 100 Mbps.
