Boost Mobile
Cheap data options
Boost Mobile is owned by DISH and at present, uses T-Mobile for the majority of its coverage. With a wide range of data plans and great international add-ons, there’s a Boost Mobile plan that will work for just about anyone. You also get access to T-Mobile 5G including mid-band.
Visible is easy to recommend to smartphone users with a compatible phone thanks to its unlimited data and solid coverage. While speeds won’t stand up to the T-Mobile 5G available with Boost, they should be enough for most day-to-day usage. Boost’s plans offer greater variety with some of the cheapest data around for light users. Boost also has one of the best plans for those that travel to Mexico with its Todo Mexico Add-On.
Visible vs. Boost Mobile: How much data do you need?
Visible only has one plan but it has unlimited talk, text, and data in the U.S. on Verizon’s network. While it can be tempting to go straight for the unlimited plans, it doesn’t make sense for a lot of users and even with Visible’s low prices, it could still end up being a waste. Like going to an all-you-can-eat buffet for every meal, the prices add up because you can’t eat that many plates of Kung Pao Chicken, even if you sometimes want to.
