The verdict, & two little voices
Should you actually get $60 Unlimited?
The editor weighs in — flanked by the optimist on her shoulder and the cynic on the other.
“Taxes in, 70 GB, hotspot, Amazon Prime. At $60, Metro's top tier is genuinely stacked.”
“$60 for a plan with 480p video cap is a Premium label with a bargain-bin picture quality ceiling.”

Our review
At $60 with AutoPay, Metro's highest plan is doing more work than the tiers below it.
It adds a 25 GB mobile hotspot (the only Metro plan that includes one), pushes the high-speed data cap to 70 GB before speeds slow, and throws in Amazon Prime. Taxes and fees are still included. Video streaming is still locked to 480p (standard definition), which is the enduring friction point across the whole Metro lineup.
The Amazon Prime inclusion is legitimate value -- that's about $15/month on its own -- though it's worth noting it's a perk that requires keeping the plan active.

Frequently asked questions about $60 Unlimited
What features does $60 Unlimited include?
No contract, no credit check. Taxes and fees included in the $60 AutoPay rate. 25 GB mobile hotspot. Amazon Prime included as long as the plan is active. Unlimited international texting to 210+ countries and destinations. Phone upgrade deals after 12 months on AutoPay.
How much data, talk, and text does $60 Unlimited include?
Unlimited talk and text. 70 GB full-speed 5G before slowing on busy towers. Unlimited international texting to 210+ countries (outbound SMS from the US only -- not full roaming). Video streams at 480p (standard definition) throughout.
What is the network speed on $60 Unlimited?
T-Mobile 5G up to 70 GB. After that, speeds slow during congestion. 70 GB is more than enough for heavy phone use in most months -- the SD video restriction is more limiting than the data cap for streaming-heavy accounts.
Does $60 Unlimited include mobile hotspot?
25 GB of mobile hotspot included. Hotspot data comes from the same 70 GB allotment or is separate -- Metro doesn't publish post-25 GB hotspot speed details, so assume it slows significantly after the 25 GB is exhausted.
What happens if you exceed your data on $60 Unlimited?
No overages. After 70 GB, data and hotspot continue at reduced speeds.
Does $60 Unlimited require a contract?
No contract. Cancel anytime. No credit check. $25 activation fee for new lines.
