If you are a sprint unlimited cell phone plan user, then i recommend you to use it at the maximum. Because soon you will be in a situation, where your unlimited data plan will be throttled after using 23 GB.
Dr. John Saw, Sprint CTO, said in a statement that, If unlimited customers use more than 23GB of data during a billing cycle, they will be prioritized in the network under other customers for the rest of their billing cycle.
You do not get cut off, but you'll probably find lower speeds.
Yet 23GB is a fairly generous amount of data. You'd have to be pretty phone addicts to meet this limitation, watching a lot of video on cellular or streaming 60 hours of music, for example. According Saw, only about 3 percent of Sprint's customers' use overwhelming disproportionate network resources. " Impose 23GB limit is aimed at "preventing any portion of that 3 percent goes forward from affecting the other 97 percent of customers negatively."
Sprint's unlimited plan, however, received only a little more expensive. On Thursday increased the price from $ 60 to $ 70 a month. Verizon will reportedly do the same to those vested in their unlimited plans next month, but with a $ 20 per month hike.
Border, meanwhile, is in line with Sprint's competitors. AT & T allows those with unlimited data plans to consume up to 22GB of data per month until their Internet access cut off, while T-Mobile slows things down for 21GB. Last year, Verizon Wireless is canceled plans to throttle heavy data users on 4G LTE middle pressure from the FCC.
