"Starting April 21, 2022, new and existing customers can get Base Essentials for $45 per month plus taxes and fees for 1 line, with 20GB of high-speed smartphone data, with 5G access included," the company said in a statement Monday provided to CNET. The new Base Essentials offering can be found by clicking on the "See other plans" option on T-Mobile's listing of wireless plans. Three lines of regular Essentials - which has 50GB of high-speed data per month - will run $90 per month ($10 less than Base Essentials), while four lines of regular Essentials is $105 per month (a $15 savings versus Base Essentials). With T-Mobile's current promotions on its other plans, this Base Essentials option only makes sense for those with one or two lines. You can have a max of four lines with Base Essentials, with three lines running $100 and four lines costing $120. Two lines will run $80 on the Base Essentials plan - a savings of $10 per month compared with regular Essentials (which runs $90 per month with AutoPay). You still, however, will be able to get a free year of Paramount Plus Essentials. There is no discount for automatic payments and the carrier is not bundling subscriptions to Netflix or a free year of Apple TV Plus as it does with its Magenta and Magenta Max plans. Unlike other T-Mobile plans, people on Base Essentials will not be able to take advantage of device upgrade offers or have taxes and fees included in the sticker price. ![]() Read more: CNET's Guide to Picking the Best Unlimited Plans Those on this Base Essentials plan will also be limited to "3G speeds" when using your phone as a hotspot, according to Reddit user a9uirre and The T-Mo Report, which first spotted the details of the new plans. Instead, your download speeds will slow to 1.5Mbps for the remainder of your billing cycle. With this plan, you'll get 20GB of high-speed data and access to T-Mobile's 5G network, but you will lose out on high-speed data after that allotment has been used up. The new option is also $25 cheaper than the Magenta option and $40 less than a single line on its priciest Magenta Max offering. The new plan, called Base Essentials, went live on April 21 and runs $45 per month for a single line, a $15 savings compared with its current cheapest Essentials unlimited plan, which is $60 per month. T-Mobile has a new unlimited plan that's cheaper than its other offerings.
