T-Mobile has given its unlimited data customers 2 more gigabytes of data just for mobile hotspot use. The unlimited plan costs $80 per month and had included 5 GB for mobile hotspots; now customers have access to 7 GB of data for mobile hotspots.
“We’ve enabled mobile hotspot benefits on all active data plans,” said T-Mobile in a statement provided to Fierce Wireless. “The improvements we’ve made to our data plans make our rate plans even simpler. Now you can use your paid 4G LTE data however you choose–between your smartphone and for other devices with tethering. When you reach your paid data allotment, your speeds will be reduced, not capped, so you never worry about overages.”
T-Mobile’s $60 plan offers 3 GB of data for mixed smartphone/hotspot use and the $70 plan offers 5 GB of mixed smartphone/hotspot use. Customers of all plans can pay $10 per month for an additional 2 GB of mobile hotspot data.
