Spectrum Mobile Unlimited: Who Is It Good For?

Spectrum Mobile’s entry-level unlimited plan is a dependable choice for those with Spectrum Mobile who want to do more than talk and text but don’t engage in a lot of data-intensive activities on their phones such as video streaming and gaming. Spectrum Mobile Unlimited is well suited for those who check email, scroll social media, and browse the web occasionally on their phones while only using their mobile hotspot once a week or less.

Note that only Spectrum Internet subscribers are eligible for Spectrum Mobile plans at the advertised prices. It is possible to sign up for these plans if you're not a customer, but in those cases, Spectrum adds a large monthly surcharge per line to your plan price. In some cases, this can come close to doubling the cost of your monthly bill. In other words, it's possible to get a Spectrum Mobile plan if you're not a Spectrum Internet customer, but it's not cost-effective.

Spectrum Mobile Unlimited Plan Price

Spectrum Mobile Unlimited stands out as a highly affordable single-line option compared to other entry-level plans, making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious Spectrum Mobile customers. 

Some carriers offer reduced per-line rates as you add more lines to your account. While you can add additional lines to your Spectrum Mobile Unlimited plan, this plan does not provide multi-line discounts. That being said, Spectrum Mobile includes the cost of taxes and fees in the advertised price for Spectrum Mobile Unlimited, something that many other carriers do not do. 

Spectrum Mobile customers can also tap into phone switch or trade-in deals, though these tend to be less competitive than other device deals from providers like Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T.

Spectrum Mobile Unlimited Data

Spectrum Mobile Unlimited provides users with a sufficient amount of data to satisfy the needs of the average user. Its hotspot data allocation will satisfy those who wish to use their phones as hotspots from time to time but not on a regular basis. Spectrum Mobile will slow your speeds once you reach a certain level of data use.

However, if you rely on your phone for data-intensive activities like video streaming and gaming, you may prefer an unlimited plan with premium data so you can always be sure to enjoy access to the highest data speeds available.

Spectrum Mobile Unlimited Add-Ons and Perks

Spectrum Mobile does not bundle additional perks like video streaming services or factor them into their unlimited plan pricing.
