T-Mobile Cuts 5G Home Internet to $35 a Month With $200 Rebates

  • $35 a month is T-Mobile's new starting price for 5G home internet, with customers able to trim another $15 monthly by bundling a T-Mobile phone plan.
  • $100 rebates apply to the Rely and Amplified tiers, while the All-In plan offers $200 back, a five-year price lock and one free month via bill credit with code MONTHONUS.
  • 134 to 415 Mbps typical download speeds, unlimited data and no equipment fees or annual contracts underpin the offer, which uses a 5G gateway with same-day delivery and roughly 15-minute self-installation.
  • Amplified and All-In add faster speeds, a Wi-Fi mesh extender, cybersecurity and 24/7 support, while All-In also bundles Hulu and Paramount Plus Essentials.
  • Rural and underserved households remain a key target: T-Mobile says the service can outperform DSL or satellite alternatives, though speeds still vary by location and network traffic.
With speeds up to 498 Mbps, why do T-Mobile's 5G internet users only see average speeds of 68 Mbps?
Is T-Mobile's billion-dollar fiber buying spree a quiet admission that wireless internet is not the ultimate future?
