T-Mobile hosted an Un-carrier event today in which the company announced the launch of a new 5G home internet plan, which is priced at $ 60 per month and offers unlimited data.
The service is available to more than 30 million Americans in much of the United States, including 10 million rural households who are not typically able to access reliable broadband. Connectivity will be either 4G or 5G, depending on what is available in a particular area.
T-Mobile promises average speeds of 100 Mb / s for “most” new customers, and the company offers a 4G / 5G modem that can be configured in minutes by connecting it and downloading an application. The service is priced at $ 60 a month with AutoPay, and T-Mobile says there are no fees or added fees, no contracts and no equipment fees, plus data is unlimited. Potential customers can visit the T-Mobile website to see if they are eligible.

To expand its availability in rural areas, T-Mobile is launching its “Hometown” initiative to bring 5G to rural America. This plan will include hiring 7,500 employees in small towns and rural communities and providing $ 25 million in grants for community development projects.
In areas where T-Mobile cannot open new stores, the company will have “hometown experts” who are T-Mobile’s official representative in a community. T-Mobile employs 2,500 experts in its hometown for 2,000 small towns.
T-Mobile also announced today a free exchange program for an iPhone 12 in exchange for an iPhone 11, half of the yearsPhone 12 with the exchange of older iPhone models ranging from iPhone to iPhone, X and a half on the iPhone 12 mini in exchange for any older iPhone. Exchange compensation is provided through 24 monthly invoice credits to ensure that customers stay with T-Mobile.
For existing customers, T-Mobile updates all T-Mobile and Sprint customers for free on unlimited plans. Customers who have AT&T or Verizon with fixed data plans can also exchange older smartphones with a free Samsung Galaxy A32 5G.
