T-Mobile

As we approach the new year, T-Mobile has announced significant updates to its 5G home and small business internet plans. The new plans start at $35 per month for customers who sign up for AutoPay and have a voice line. Overall, they are slightly less expensive than current plans.

First up is the T-Mobile Rely Internet plan that offers essential home Wi-Fi services at a competitive monthly rate backed by a Price Lock guarantee. The T-Mobile Amplified Internet plan provides faster internet speeds, along with advanced cybersecurity for home users or a mesh device for small business customers.

Finally, the T-Mobile All-In Internet plan includes everything from the Amplified Internet package, along with subscriptions to Hulu (With Ads) and the Paramount+ Essential Monthly Plan for home users. Small business customers receive two mesh devices, Microsoft 365, and other benefits.

Here’s a breakdown of the pricing:

  • T-Mobile Rely Internet: $50 per month with AutoPay or $35 per month with AutoPay and any T-Mobile voice line.
  • T-Mobile Amplified Internet: $45 per month with AutoPay and a voice line, or $60 per month without.
  • T-Mobile All-In Internet: $55 per month with AutoPay and a voice line, or $70 per month without.

These new packages seem more customer-friendly, offer more perks, and are better priced than the current plans, which remain available until the new ones arrive next week.

The current Home Internet Unlimited package offers unlimited high-speed home internet for $50 per month with AutoPay. For an extra $20 per month, there’s Home Internet Plus designed for larger families and more devices. It promises faster speeds.

In announcing the new plans, Allan Samson, chief broadband officer for T-Mobile, explains:  “While some internet providers raise customers’ rates up to $50 a month once the promotional period ends, we’re introducing new rate plans to give people more choice, more value, and peace of mind knowing that as long as they’re on their eligible 5G Internet plan, they don’t have to worry about price hikes.”

T-Mobile Rely, Amplified, and All-In Internet plans are available starting Wednesday, December 11. Home internet customers can sign up online or in stores, and Small Business Internet customers can sign up in stores.

T-Mobile has often been in the news this year for mostly negative reasons. In October, it reached a settlement with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regarding past data breaches between 2021 and January 2024. The breaches affected 130 million customers.

Two months earlier, it faced criticism for imposing additional monthly fees of up to $5 per line for customers with legacy data plans. Customers with a legacy Simple Choice, ONE, or Magenta plan experienced the price increases.

T-Mobile is the third-largest carrier in the U.S., behind Verizon and AT&T.

Setting up your dorm desk? These are the phone stands I’d actually spend my money on
From a $2 folding stand to a three-in-one Apple charging dock, these are the phone stands worth setting up this semester.
Analog Clock, Clock, Electronics

A phone stand is one of the smallest purchases on any back-to-school list, but it's also one of the easiest to get wrong, especially since there are dozens of options available on Amazon. A good phone stand is one that does its job well and, more importantly, doesn't put much of a dent in your budget.

This is one of those product categories where you don’t need to spend big, unless a MagSafe dock or a multi-device charging stand is genuinely useful for your desk or dorm setup. That is why this list begins with the most affordable options and works its way up to the more expensive ones. From a two-pack that costs about as much as a coffee to a three-in-one Apple charging station, I picked eight of Amazon's best-reviewed phone stands worth considering this back-to-school season.

I picked four wireless chargers so you can stop making your iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch fight over one dorm outlet
The best back-to-school wireless chargers for dorm desks, study spaces, and travel
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

A dorm-room desk can disappear surprisingly quickly beneath a laptop charger, phone cable, Apple Watch puck, and the growing collection of adapters required to power them all. Add textbooks and other academic materials, and finding enough room to study becomes the first assignment of the semester.

A wireless charging stand can consolidate several of those cables into one station. It also gives your phone a dedicated place to sit, which helps when you are checking the time or watching a lecture. Every charger here still needs one connection to the wall. So finding a peripheral that works with all of your gadgets isn't just convenient, it's smart. I picked four models ranging from an inexpensive two-device stand to a fast 25W wireless charger capable of powering an entire Apple setup.

Your backpack needs one of these power banks before classes start
I picked 4 power banks that can survive your longest day on campus
Anker Nano 3-in-1 10,000mAh portable power bank for iPhone.

Finding an empty outlet on campus can require more patience than registering for a popular class. Common spaces like libraries or lecture halls rarely have sockets in the right places. So a good power bank gives you far more freedom. It gives you the option to choose the quiet corner of the library, work outside between classes, or even finish an assignment without worrying about your laptop's battery.

The right model depends on what you carry, since a phone needs far less power than a MacBook or gaming laptop. I picked four Anker power banks that cover everything from everyday phone charging to running several demanding devices at once.
