It’s the battle of the low-priced wireless provider. Before diving deep, we know Sprint and T-Mobile have too many similarities, but in this article, we’ll look at the better one for our users. These two are cheaper than their major competition Verizon and AT&T. So if you’re looking for a bit of relief on your cell phone bill, you may decide which is our pick; well, I won’t leave you in suspense. It’s T-Mobile. I know you want to know why we said it’s T-Mobile, and I’ll tell you. What do you think Sprint Vs T-Mobile which is better in your opinion ?
We will compare each now and look at their coverage, data speed, plans, pricing, and perks.
Comparisons between Sprint and T-Mobile
Let’s start with Sprint. If you’re trying to keep your bill as low as possible, then Sprint wins hands down, taking a look at just the unlimited plans. Sprint is usually a few dollars cheaper on the sticker price, sometimes many dollars more affordable. The sole exceptions are first, if you have four lines, it’s the same price for Sprint unlimited basic plans as 14 mobiles lower to your unlimited plans. Secondly, if you sign up for Sprint new unlimited premium plans, that one can run pretty high, although you get quite a few perks. Now sticker prices don’t always tell the whole story, so keep in mind taxes, fees, and surcharges. On a two-line sprint plan, our example shows a total of just over 12bucks for those extra fees, but that may change slightly month to month or by area.
On the T-Mobile side, all those taxes and fees are included in the sticker prices, so that price margin does shrink slightly. But even accounting for that, Sprint is usually the cheaper of the two.
Plans
T-Mobile has about four plan options, including senior and military plans. They start as pay-as-you-go and range to unlimited plans. Sprint has three options to choose from online and even has a senior and military plan, but they don’t have as many individual plans as T-mobile.
T-Mobile has the edge over Sprint because they have many options.
Coverage and Speed
Now let’s talk about what you get for those prices. In terms of coverage, both Sprint and T-Mobile ranked lower than Verizon and AT&T, but T-Mobile came out on top. They both tend to do fine in most cities, but T-Mobile will be the better bet in remote or rural areas. In speed tests, T-Mobile also wins, and some studies even ranked them above Verizon, the perennial speed king, so if you pay a little more for T-Mobile, then at least you’re paying for faster speeds and more reliable coverage.
Perks
Perk is a category that shouldn’t be a primary factor in your decision-making. It’s more important to have a phone service that works as well as you need it to when you need it. If Sprint and T-Mobile are neck and neck in your book, you will need something to tip you over the edge. Look at their unlimited plans perks; both offer unlimited data and texting in most countries. Still, T-Mobile takes the travel stuff further and offers in-flight texting and google wifi; both services offer streaming subscriptions.
T-Mobile will get you a complimentary subscription to Netflix while Sprint comes with a subscription to Hulu but wait, there’s more with Sprint revamped plan
structure. They have three tiers of unlimited plans, and the perks get better as you work your way up.
You can decide which one is better when you get more of them anyway. Still, with the unlimited basic plans, you get that Hulu subscription unlimited, plus you get Hulu and tidal music streaming and the premium level ads in both Amazon prime, including prime video and lookout, which does device security among other things.
As for what all that costs, the premium plan is $30 more per line over the basic tier, so you better be sure you’ll take advantage of every single perk offered if it’s going to be worth it, especially if you’re using multiple lines.
Sprint is making a play as the go-to provider for perks; whether they’ve succeeded is ultimately up to you. Despite the make perks offered by Sprint, T-Mobile is our winner here.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Sprint may have a lot of perks, and it might be slightly less expensive, but T-Mobile includes taxes and fees in its sticker price, which is a massive plus for me, and it also simply does better with its speed and coverage with I think it’s worth a few extra bucks on that monthly bill.
