Where it stands
T-Mobile has introduced new installment and '2.0' phone plans that extend device commitments to three years. The move comes as the carrier seeks to make switching providers easier and attract new customers.
The Verge and Bloomberg.com note that the new plans bundle taxes and fees into the financing, which may catch some customers off guard. The Mobile Report and Android Authority focus on discounted student plans, a new initiative that could appeal to a younger demographic.
However, the extent of these discounts and their impact on overall customer satisfaction is not yet clear. Coverage does not yet specify how the new plans will affect existing customers or long-term contracts.
