Visible vs. US Mobile: Which $25/Month Unlimited Plan Is Best?

Verizon-owned Visible’s $25 a month unlimited data plan is hard to beat, but US Mobile is giving Visible a run for its money after the latest overhaul of its plans. I compare them in this updated review!

    UPDATE: US Mobile changed its plans again in December 2023! Unlimited Starter is no longer $25/month. It's $29/month or $276 if you prepay for a year (equivalent to $23/month).

    My gf and I had T-Mobile a year ago. We didn't mind it at all specially the speeds we saw. We started new jobs where we have to use our phones a lot and that's where we ran into an issue. Our phones could not get signal in the buildings. We switched to visible and get great service in the building plus we're saving a lot of money.

    I've used both and I can tell you the throttle is very real with US Mobile after you use your premium data allotment. I'm talking 2g speeds. Basically unusable. Visible is better, but has some issues too. Like video streaming is throttled to 2.0 MBPS (480p). Also, customer service is limited to "chat bots" with Visible. On the plus side I tried both of Visible's plans and didn't notice any difference between the two. I prefer Visible over US Mobile.

    US Mobile clearly states that when you use all your data speeds will be throttled to 1Mbps, Visible is simply deprioritized and Visible+ gives you 50 Gigs then deprioritizes you. if you live in an area where verizon has little congestion you would never even notice on visible.

    If you aren’t on the main carrier, for example Verizon you are going to be throttled down during all peak hours. I had Visible and it was nearly unusable for online use, but the phone service was great. They are a monopoly and are going to get you coming or going. People need to start calling their representatives and lodging complaints against the carriers. The United States has the highest rates in the world as well as the lowest rated service!

    I have realistically had both in the last six months. Both are very very good and if I had to pick one, it would probably be US mobile because in my location in Fort Worth the visible base plan is just too severely congested. But I was not sure if they do anything with the ACP so I’m with Metro by T-Mobile now who partners with ACP.

    usmobiles $25 plan will slow you down majorly when you reach 20 of the 30 gigs.. Does it every month when i'm close to that number.. You can contact the support and they will "magic" something and you will be back to the better priority once again.. But can expect this to be a routine thing

    I have both Visible and US Mobile with Verizon both with the $25 dollar plan and for both I have CDMA unlocked phones compatible with Verizon and what I have noticed is that on both phones runs better US Mobile, for instance, hotspot doesn't work with Visible , it says error, and the speed is faster with US Mobile because of the Warp 5G premiun data, however Visible with the phones that they offer works pretty good no problem with the hotspot, so if you want Visible get the phone with them and get the $35 dollar plan to get the premium data

I have a motorola one 5g UW phone that was unlocked from Verizon. It gets 5g over at my doctor's office. Other people pay Verizon $100 a month on their iPhone. Good for them. I tried to tell them all about Visible, they act like it isn't good enough for them. Oh well...BTW, I got the phone for $90 (refurb).

    Michael, FYI, the "Current Period" data used (0:38) does not reset by itself. Since most people don't know about it or keep an eye on it, I find most people I help with their phones have never reset it. So it shows how much data they've used since getting the phone. I guess there's no way the phone can know your billing cycle. Android let's you tell it, but Apple doesn't. One wishes Apple had the same features as Android here.

There was times I couldnt really use the data in the regular plan for short periods. I think now since Visible is giving the unlimited 10gb speeds of hot spot that should help alot. They told me that hot spot shouldnt be affected by priority, but it was. You have any experience with the hotspot on visible?

I am a truck driver, I go up and down the east coast to many different locations without a drop in signal, my GPS is always active and responsive. I have found some dead spots, like where I park my truck, but a block away it starts working again. When I sleep in the truck I use the hotspot feature to watch Netflix on my iPad without an issue, all that for $25/mo, I love Visible.
