How to Pay $50/mo (or nothing) for an Unlimited Plan & Data on AT&T
Skip the iPhone, consider an unlocked smartphone
“Skip the iPhone? Are you crazy?!” Perhaps, but hear me out. First, I’ll declare that I am not an “Apple Hater”, I owned the very first iPhone upon it’s release date, but have since, switched to various other unlocked smartphones to save money, among other reasons. With the recent release of the iPhone 4s, millions of people are thinking about to renew their cellular plan. But think again – how much will the iPhone really cost? Engadget compares the true cost of the iPhone 4s across it’s three carriers; AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon. They conclude that:
The cheapest taste of the iPhone comes courtesy of AT&T with 450 minutes and 200MB of data for $55 before additional taxes and fees — but sadly, those numbers won’t afford music / video fanatics very much streaming. Per month, the plans range from around $55 for the lowest end of the range to $170 for Verizon’s unlimited talk / text and 12GB worth of data. Sprint’s plan sets itself apart from the pack by offering truly unlimited, uncapped data as part of its voice plans whereas the others taper off at 12GB or even 4GB (AT&T).
That’s $55 for the bare minimum, the semi-unlimited (4GB cap) will set you back a cool $115 a month. That doesn’t even include how much you’ll inevitably spend in iTunes and the App Store. If you’re dead set on getting an iPhone – a few of the tips I’ll share could potentially lower your plan to around $70 a month, for but maximum benefit, consider an unlocked smartphone.
