T-Mobile responds to Verizon’s unlimited plans by one-upping their costs

T-Mobile wouldn’t be the carrier it is today without its outspoken CEO, John Legere. It only took a day for T-Mobile to come up with a way to one-up Verizon’s first unlimited plans that the company has offered since it stopped offering unlimited plans several years ago. You can check out Verizon’s new plans and trade-in-deals here.
Verizon’s new plans actually one-upped T-Mobile’s ONE plan by offering HD video streaming (which T-Mobile capped at 480p) and 10GB of included tethering with the new plans (which T-Mobile limited to 3G speeds). If you wanted any of these features, you had to pay extra fees to get them on T-Mobile’s ONE plan.

Verizon has felt the heat in the past year and caved in just yesterday when it aired commercials during the Grammy Awards. I have to admit, my jaw dropped as soon as the commercial ended.
T-Mobile has released its new pricing structure and feature list for T-Mobile ONE plans which are still cheaper than Verizon’s and now match the two features that Verizon’s plans offer: 10GBs of tethering + HD video streaming (up from 480p).
But anyway, John Legere’s tweet storm can be seen below.
T-Mobile has brought serious competition to the mobile industry in the US, back during a time that it desperately needed it (as plans began to soar in cost). If John Legere’s plan was to see if T-Mobile could get Verizon to its knees, it certainly succeeded. Now it’s time for Verizon to play at T-Mobile’s game. Things are going to get really interesting for all carriers during the next few years during the 5G Race.
