T-Mobile offers unlimited 5G home broadband service

Glenn Fleishman, TidBITS:

Thirty million US households just received another option for affordable, high-speed home broadband. T-Mobile Home Internet covers that many households, 10 million of which are in rural areas. The company promises an average of 100 Mbps in most areas via its 5G network. Service should average no less than 50 Mbps for any household, including those that are currently only within reach of T-Mobile’s 4G LTE towers.

And:

T-Mobile Home Internet costs $60 per month for unlimited use, with no long-term commitment. There’s also no separate fee for the necessary hardware, which is designed for self-installation.

More and more options popping up for cutting the cable. This is a great read, lots of detail.

The advantage of sticking with cable is bundle pricing. But with so much content available, enough content to fill your days is becoming cheaper and cheaper. If you’ve got Netflix and Apple TV+, you’ve already got a pretty good amount to watch. Add in Disney+ and some over the air local channels and it’s an embarrassment of riches.
