Cellular plans, at least from the major carriers in the U.S., can be expensive. That's why there are plenty of alternatives, like Mint Mobile, which is a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With Mint Mobile, you get low-cost, direct to consumer mobile phone plans through the nationwide T-Mobile network. These plans start at as little as $15 a month, which is much more affordable than the starting plans for the major carriers.
And if you're worried about not getting the latest and greatest phone with Mint Mobile, fret not! There are a ton of great Mint Mobile phones available, including all of the iPhone 12 devices, as well as some of the top-of-the-line Android devices. In fact, some specific iPhone models now support eSIM, which allow you to try Mint Mobile completely free for seven days, without the need for a physical SIM card.
