~~NOCACHE~~ This page last changed ~~LASTMOD~~ [{{counter|today| time| times}} today, {{counter|yesterday| time| times}} yesterday, and {{counter|total| time| total times}}] USMobile has so many options and is so confusing that I have put together this page that summarizes the options, on 14Feb2025. I'm concerned with the lower-use plans, so you should consult [[https://usmobile.com/plans]] for official info and other plans. ^ Feature ^ DarkStar (AT&T) ^ Warp (Verizon). ^ LightSpeed (T-Mobile ^ | Plan name: Unlimited Flex |||| | Cost/mo for a year, includes taxes & fees (no contract not intro rate) $17.50 ($210/12 months) |||| | Nationwide 5G? | Yes | mmWave & C-band | Yes | | High Speed (Premium) Data | 10GB | 10GB | 10GB | | Hotspot Data | 5GB | 5GB | 5GB | | Data Priority Level Included | QCI 9 | QCI 8 on 5G devices | QCI 7 | | Unlimited Talk & Text | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Wifi Talk & Text | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Int'l calls from US ([[https://www.usmobile.com/international-calling|Countries]]) | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Int'l texts from US | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Data, calls, texts outside US [[https://www.usmobile.com/international-roaming-phone-plans|(countries)]] | for purchase | for purchase | for purchase | | Network Transfers | 2 free then $2/transfer | 2 free then $2/transfer | 2 free then $2/transfer | | Apple Watch Plan | Not yet | for purchase | not yet supported | | Typical download speed (higher=better) mbps | 30.5 - 389 | 70 - 357 | 30 - 702 | | Typical Upload Speed (higher=better) mbps | 4.5 - 33 | 7 - 32 | 30 - 702 | | Typical Latency (lower=better) ms | 11 - 35 | 17 - 32 | 45 - 62 | ===Other info on this plan=== * Data included with monthly price: Unlimited * Charges for additional data usage: None * Phone support 878-205-0088 * Unique plan identifier: M830431123ABC456DEF789 ====What is QCI?==== QCI means Quality of Service Class Identifier.
