What you'll actually pay

The $15/mo offer is over. On a 12-month term the four plans are $15, $20, $25 and $30 a month, which is $180 to $360 paid upfront. That's still among the cheapest ways onto T-Mobile's network.

The term matters as much as the plan. Unlimited is $30/mo on 12 months and $40/mo on 3, so buying the longest term you're comfortable with saves about $10/mo.

The 23GB plan is the weakest buy. On 12 months it's $5 less than Unlimited; on 3 months it's $5 more. Either way Unlimited is the better deal for the money.

Two limits to price in. Unlimited slows above 50GB when the network is busy and video streams in SD across the lineup. Mint is a cheap plan, not a premium one, and taxes and fees are extra on top.

Mint Mobile is a good fit if…

You want the cheapest credible brand-name plan and can pay for a term upfront.
You're a light-to-moderate user: Mint's economics are built around people who don't need premium data.
You want T-Mobile's network without T-Mobile's bill, from a brand T-Mobile owns.
You want to try Mint first: the 7-day eSIM trial runs on a temporary number before you buy a term.
You call Mexico and Canada: that's included on every plan.

Look elsewhere if…

You want to pay monthly. Mint has no month-to-month option; the term is the product.
You care about video quality: everything streams in SD.
You use more than 50GB, where Unlimited may slow during congestion.
You want all-in pricing; taxes and fees are extra, unlike Cricket, Metro or Total Wireless.
You want retail support: Mint is online only.
