Unlimited Plans

- Unlimited &More ($80): Video streaming is limited to standard definition (480p). Mobile hot spot is not included with this plan.
- Unlimited &More Premium ($90): Includes 15GB of high-speed mobile hot spot data per month, which drops to 2G speeds after you use your allotment. Video can stream in HD if you turn off AT&T’s “stream saver” restriction. There are no restrictions on download speeds. Option to add on one premium service, like HBO or Pandora Premium, at not additional cost.
