T-Mobile may lower its rates for unlimited data, sources tell TmoNews. The blog says that T-Mobile will lower the price of its “Even More individual unlimited plan to $79.99, down $20 from $99.99. For “Even More Plus” customers, the savings will be deeper with a price reduction to $69.99. The new plans should launch on Feb. 23, just in time for the release of the Samsung Galaxy S 4G.

This is only the latest move T-Mobile has made to try and compete with the stiff competition of AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint. It has been aggressively airing commercials touting its 4G network and even ran a promotion last week that, for two days, offered any phone free with a two-year contract.

In addition, the carrier is refocusing its efforts on offering lower prices on smartphone plans (seen here) and offering a better selection of Android phones than the competition. It has also launched a quazi-4G network using HSPA+ technology, which offers higher speeds than traditional 3G data connections.

Would lower prices coax you into choosing T-Mobile?

AT&T customers subscribed to the Unlimited Elite plan have reason to celebrate. The carrier announced that it is scrapping throttling regardless of data usage. The mobile hotspot data allowance still exists, but it’s been upped to 40GB from its previous 30GB.

Last but not least, the existing HBO Max subscription already included for HBO Max subscribers is beefed up to 4K UHD from standard resolution. AT&T is also emphasizing some of its security features, like ActiveArmor, which provides network security features, automatic fraud call blocking, and suspected spam risk alerts.

T-Mobile phone plans may have gotten all the attention as the first carrier to launch a nationwide 5G network coverage, but AT&T has since followed suit. Now, we are seeing a rapidly expanding AT&T 5G network, and the carrier offers 5G access in the majority of its phone plans.

Speaking of plans, AT&T offers a few of them. Between its unlimited data plans, its prepaid plans, and other plans, there's a lot to consider if you're thinking about switching to AT&T or switching your plan within AT&T. There are other major 5G carriers to choose from.

T-Mobile carved a name for itself as the Un-carrier under the fearless (and eccentric) leadership of John Legere. Now a new CEO is in, but the company is still making waves -- whether by absorbing Sprint, launching the first nationwide 5G network, or creating a plan that does away with the concept of premium data.

Speaking of plans, T-Mobile offers a few -- and different plans may be better or worse for your needs, depending on what you're looking for. All of its postpaid plans now offer unlimited data, but it offers some solid prepaid plans that are worth considering, too.
