T-Mobile is coming out with a new plan that lets customers upgrade their phone every year called Go5G Next. Prior to this new plan rollout, T-Mobile customers were “upgrade-ready” every two years using the Go5G Plus plans.
Customer’s can’t change to these new plans just yet but they won’t have to wait too long. T-Mobile confirms the Go5G Next plans will be available beginning this Thursday. Customers should be able to swap to these new plans over the phone or in-store. And it’s likely they’ll be able to change to them through the app as well. T-Mobile also confirms this isn’t a “limited-time thing.” Stating that the new plan will be sticking around. Meanwhile, the other Go5G plans will be sticking around as well.
With Go5G Next, T-Mobile customers can upgrade after paying off half their phone
The big benefit here is being able to upgrade to the latest device more often. Say you enjoy having he newest Samsung Galaxy S device or the newest iPhone. Now that’s much easier to do because this plan from T-Mobile is designed specifically to help customers move into the latest devices.
Anyone on a Go5G Next plan can do this if they pay off half of their current device first. Assuming they already have a device setup in EIP. According to T-Mobile, most customers have half of their device paid off in 12 months or less. So it made sense to let them upgrade at that time. That being said, T-Mobile isn’t making customers wait the full 12 months. It’s actually possible to upgrade every 6 months if half your phone is paid off by that time.
Though, we can’t imagine many people would want to change phones that frequently. Surely though, this will be perfect for people who always want the newest version of popular devices. Which typically come out every year. Go5G Next plans also come with everything the Go5G Plus plans come with. Which includes Apple TV+ and Netflix memberships, 50GB of mobile hotspot, and more.
