T-Mobile’s new contract-free pricing now available

T-Mobile on Sunday unveiled pricing for its new “Uncarrier” contract-free initiative that will offer customers unlimited talk, text and 500MB of 4G data starting at $50 per month with additional data being offered in 2GB increments for an extra $10 per month with Wi-Fi tethering included. T-Mobile is also offering users unlimited talk, text and data for $70 a month, however the plan only includes 500MB of tethering data. In line with earlier rumors, customers are given the option of purchasing a smartphone at full price or through monthly installments — a Galaxy S III, for example, adds a monthly charge of $16 to any data plan. T-Mobile is scheduled to hold a press event in New York City on Tuesday where it is expected to unveil additional network changes.
