Don’t pair your new phone with an expensive plan — Metro has a great unlimited plan for just $25/mo today
The carrier's latest deal for new customers is a strong contender
If you’re currently looking for the perfect cheap plan to pair up with your phone, Metro by T-Mobile is well worth a look. The prepaid carrier is currently offering a fantastic range of deals for new customers, perfect if you're looking for a feature-laden plan that doesn't break the bank.
For example, you can currently bring your own device and snag an unlimited 5G plan for just $25 per month. That's one of the lowest prices on the entire prepaid market right now and the perfect option for data-hungry users on a budget.
The value goes beyond just pricing, too. Metro’s unlimited plan comes with a five-year price guarantee and access to T-Mobile Tuesdays, which includes perks like discounted movie tickets, dining cashback, and prize giveaways. That’s a level of added value you don’t often see from prepaid carriers, but it’s one of the benefits of Metro being owned by T-Mobile.
If bringing your own device isn’t your plan, Metro also has some strong phone deals available. You can score free devices with eligible plans, including options like the slightly older (but still great) iPhone 16e and Samsung Galaxy A17 5G. I've attached more details on those deals, as well as a promotion on the new iPhone 17e, just down below.
