GoKawiilVerizon launches $45 Simplicity unlimited plan with full 5G speeds
Verizon has introduced a new Simplicity phone plan priced at $45 a month per line with autopay, or $30 for new customers who switch their number and bring an unlocked phone. The plan includes unlimited data, 5G Ultra Wideband access, 10GB of mobile hotspot, Canada/Mexico roaming and satellite texting, with optional add-on bundles for streaming and other perks sold separately.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The plan undercuts Verizon's entry-level Unlimited Welcome tier by $20 while still unlocking full 5G Ultra Wideband speeds, a feature normally reserved for pricier plans, which could make it an attractive low-cost option for single-line customers. Multi-line account holders should note that switching to Simplicity requires moving every line on the account, which may complicate the decision for families or shared plans.
- Simplicity costs $45/month per line, or $30 for switchers bringing their number and unlocked phone
- Unlike Unlimited Welcome, Simplicity offers full 5G Ultra Wideband speeds without network tier restrictions
- All lines on a multi-line account must switch together, limiting flexibility for existing myPlan customers
