This could work if you don't need a new phone every couple years, but it still feels like they're just moving the costs around.

On October 26, 2026, T-Mobile unveiled T-Mix: Standard, More and Loaded plans launching in November at $55, $75 and $95 a month for one line with AutoPay, plus taxes and fees. Customers assign Picks—by tier and line count—to streaming, gaming, food delivery, AI, satellite, video calls or phone promotions. T-Mobile says Loaded offers at least $120 in average value per line monthly, more than $4,320 a year for a family of three. Allan Samson, T-Mobile chief marketing officer: "The wireless industry has spent decades telling customers what their plan should be – even though 84% of consumers surveyed want more control over what they pay for." Bob O'Donnell walked through a $95 Loaded plan with three streaming Picks and a $75 More plan with satellite and video-calling Picks. Four lines cost $115 a month with four Picks on Standard and $240 with eleven on Loaded. Partner Picks can change every three months plus an Annual Remix; T-Satellite anytime. Existing customers may keep current plans. Against $219 average monthly household spend on similar subscriptions, T-Mobile also cited over $900 in T-Mobile Tuesdays free items per line last year. Phone promotions and other benefits share one Pick pool. CONTESTED: no contested claims found.
