I have Visible and I'm staying with Visible. Hi Sherri
US Mobile would be good to throw in these videos as well, they have very good flexible plans especially tiered data plans but their unlimited plan especially for family plans are amazing and at a very good price
Thank you for your thoughtful and helpful observations here.
Thx so much for very useful info it’s really help me making a decision. I’ll give Visible a try to see its coverage in my area, if it doesn’t work I’ll switch to others no contract no sweat.
Very nice comparison video. I am here researching plans for a friend. I have had Google FI ever since it was Project FI.
Please don't forget that Visible has a Apple watch plan for $5 as well
And unlimited hotspot!
Switched to Visible beginning of the year with $15/month deal. Keep Fi line for international use (you can pause Fi service for 3 months at a time) as it is just too expensive for daily use on a single line.
I have tried at&t, visible, Google and Boost infinite. I love Google fi but price is too expensive. Now using boost infinite. Its good also.
Google doesn’t deprioritize its data like mint and visible
I have Visible+ and it has 50Gb of priority data and then just deprioritized. Speeds are then almost as good as the first 50Gb
I have mint mobile and download speeds are pretty much the same as T-Mobile service (I had them before I switched). I will say that uploading things to google drive does seem a bit slower, and it also requests me being connected to Wi-Fi a lot more often to complete an upload of a video or large document whereas before on T-mobile it would slowly upload those files, but still attempt to upload them. This is probably the only time I feel as if I'm deprioritized though, for those who are afraid of the "deprioritzation" tag. And due to my e-sim, I seem to come across dead areas a lot less than when I had a sim card. I might switch to Visible when I start to travel more, but mint is a solid choice for the person who's trying to save money.
As a family we have been a Republic Wireless MVNO customer for years, specifically because here in terrain challenged NH WiFI calling/texting is important. However that all went away when Dish bought them. We have been looking at Mint but since T-Mobile bought them waiting to see how things shake out.
My main line is on visible since i get unlimited for $25 a month. Plus there are no commitments so i can cancel anytime.
I have a secondary line on mint mobile because of just how affordable they are.
A 15gb plan for 15gb a month is hard to beat! The downside is that you have to commit to them for a year to get the best price unless they're is a promotion
I just switched to visible from mint mobile because the 10GB a moth hotspot I used the 1st day and after that you can't connect to your computer to use it to surf the web. The 40 GB data is only for use on the phone.
I have Visible. I use about 120GB of hotspot data a month.
LoL this is why I'm switching!!!
Just don't be a hog like me and download close to 990 GB they say you can safely use around 300 GB.
@@jameslister7355visable has no data limted
How’s the speed with it?
@@luisfdb19 The speed here is OK. I watch videos in HD. We only have 4g LTE at the house but at my doctor's office it is 5g and blazing fast.
I have Fi and my download speeds are typically between 50 and 400 mbps in rural Oregon. Plus, I get domestic roaming and prioritized data that I did not get with Mint when I had it.
I have Fi too an other then that I always get better price for the android phones on they store like Google Pixels, Samsung and Motorola, often less the half of the price.
I have Fi and I’m leaving. Their customer service has been the worst possible. I’m now on week 3 of my phone not working and they are giving me the biggest run around about why.
Visible last fall
@@samblethen Yeah but this isn't actually a service issue. My wife's phone works fine but Google wants me to spend more time trouble shooting instead of replacing under warranty.
@@benjaminhoch1887 Sounds about right for them. They used to have good support a few years ago. Now? Ha!
I’ve tried all 3, I think Visible is by far the best balance of cost, perks and performance. Visible all the way!
I switched to mint mobile about three maybe four years ago. I don't remember... But I switched when I lost my job. I wanted to cut expenses and I thought it was a good idea to paint in advance so I wouldn't have to worry about a monthly expense. Fast forward to today. I'm okay with it, but I would consider other plans from other companies if they had similar payment plans as mint.
Throw in AT&T coverage, Cricket Wireless & Red Pocket
I had Google Fi but just switched to Visible.
Why did you switch from Google fi?
How is visible going from being on Fi?
As Someone who just got off Government phone service called Lifeline here in California
I got unlimited decent cell talk, text, and shit data with ASSurance wireless. Their customer service is crap with what seems like offshore agents who take English names. The worst is their choice in phones, names you never heard of like Winko and the names you heard all phones are reconditioned.
I Chose Visible, I heard it first mentioned in comments section of a YT video. Visible seems like Best balance of Phones, Plans, and perks. Yes Mint has the cheapest plans but it seems that they have the fewest choices in phones with the highest prices. Since Mint became Tmobile Ryan Reynolds took his money and ran...I don't blame him. Thanks fer yer video, you seem genuine darling. Love.
Visible is a solid for me but the data does get deprioritized other than that its good
You have the plus or base visible plan ?
@@chrisp7673 I had the plus but I guess it’s also depending where you live see I’m in central Texas and T-Mobile and att rule the air verizon. Nope
To add, Mintmobile has a few fees involved which adds to the total cost. In contrast, I’ve heard that with Visible, what you see is what you pay.
If you don’t mind paying in bulk and don’t need a lot of data, Mintmobile offers the best value, even despite the fees. Visible seems to be a good for unlimited data without the need for bulk buying, but going by the comments, coverage seems to vary.
Just clocked mint with 127 gbs. Not bad
I think one thing people don't mention enough is that mint mobile has to be paid up front instead of monthly. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but it could be an important factor for some.
Using Mintmobile on a secondary line right now, but had Visible around the same time. Mint had the better deal at $15 a month unlimited for 3 months. Couldn't pass it up. Will probably go back to Visible once it ends though. Mintmobile sometimes struggles when I'm out of the city, Visible not as much.
once you use up your hotspot data you can no long surf the web on your computer. The only way to surf the web is with your cellphone. Just beware I canceled my mint mobile and switched back to visible before my 7 days was up. Just beware.
@@jameslister7355 Well I don't have a computer but yeah once I used up my data my phone was pretty much useless except for calls and texts. Luckily it's my secondary line and I was only a few days until my due date. Because of this I can't really use Mint as a primary line. Don't recall it being an issue with Visible. With the deal from Mint they're the exact same price. Visible has a pretty good deal right now too but not sure how long it lasts.
They are cheap enough to have both if your phone supports it.
I'm in the middle of my 3 month Mint trial AND the 14 day Visible trial.
I'll probably keep both in a sense. Mint at a low level of data and use it as my phone. (I needed a personal number and they were the first, so I'm keeping that.) Set up my phone to use Visible as my primary data and just get the $25/month unlimited. Mint would be the backup data.
I have two of the three major carriers in my pocket for around $50/month all taxes included.
That's what I pay for my wife's AT&T Unlimited Starter with my Veterans discount.
If you travel a bit, why not have both, just one that has SOME data to use while your primary has unlimited data.
Maybe that works for you, or for others reading this.
@@buffuniballer Well unfortunately I just took a trip out of town at a somewhat remote location. I had zero Visible service, and I mean zero. My Simple Mobile main line, which uses T-Mobile, was solid and never lost signal. The plan was to use Visible though since it has unlimited Hotspot. So I think I'll actually end up going back to Mintmobile since this is a trip I hope to make often. Mintmobile sometimes struggles with a signal in only one spot, but I'm not there often. Service seemed to get better after I wrote that too.
@@artdogg50I get it. What one chooses is highly dependent on where they go.
Mint is TMO's "captive" MVNO so I'd expect the same or better as you get from Simple Mobile as you say they are also TMO.
I know I can set my iPhone to use BOTH SIMS/Networks for data. I can check the primary and then toggle "Allow Cellular Data Switching" to use cellular data from both lines depending on coverage and availability.
If you have unlimited plans with both, no worries. If you have limits on one, then cellular data switching probably isn't a good idea.
But hey, it's still great we have choices.
For my wife, my plan is the $25 unlimited with Visible combined with our already ATT that is unlimited. Just turn on Cell Data Switching and turn her loose. Since both are unlimited, just let the phone sort it out.
But I get unlimited with AT&T for $45/month plus tax and that includes HBO (MAX now IIRC) so it doesn't make sense to drop her off that for an MVNO.
Just want to cover our bases.
But what works for me may not work for others. YMMV
Good luck with whatever solution you choose.
I'm surprised all the carriers haven't adapted to this model, AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile with all their stupid hidden fees is ridiculous... I have been using Mint Mobile for 3 years now, my only complaint is my internet speed at times is very slow... Other than that, saving a ton of money overall vs. the brick and motar companies like AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon..
Visible and Mint are owned by Verizon and T-Mobile respectively so they actually have.
I actually left mint after they got bought by T-Mobile. But looks like they are still great
One other concern is coverage. I have had Visible for years and every time I travel to the mountains (East coast) I lose signal because Visible does not have the roaming agreement to use other carriers towers. Verizon is spotty in the East coast mountains. Family members on T mobile and AT&T and even on a Verizon plans do not have this problem as they all have roaming agreements to use other carriers towers while Visible does not.
That's incorrect. Visible by Verizon does have roaming.
@@AndrewAddisonUniqueDrewski980 did they add it recently? My Kids had Verizon and had signal through roaming. My wife and I were on visible and didn't have signal in the mountains. I haven't seen a change in roaming policy since then. I'm just speaking from my experience in the mountains multiple times
@@rickcarnagey9586 Yes they surely did.
@@AndrewAddisonUniqueDrewski980 I believe you, however they can't have the same roaming as Verizon or I my wife and I would have had service as our kids did which were on Verizon. It has to be a different roaming that did not allow us signal in the mountains over multiple visits.
@@rickcarnagey9586 Actually they do have the same roaming partners as Verizon. It would be so foolish of them to not include that for Visible by Verizon, by Verizon. Verizon has full ownership/created Visible from scratch since year of 2018!! Visible was using the Visible cloud network until August of last year 2022 which was when they fully migrated right on over to using Verizon Core Network which includes Roaming(all of Verizon's roaming partners)!!
I have only Verizon tower and Twigby, considering Visible. Twigby is less than $25/mo.
Please keep in mind, Visibe by Verizon is not an MVNO carrier. They are in fact a hybrid prepaid carrier that happened to be fully owned+created right from scratch by Verizon since year of 2018. So no, they are not an MVNO carrier, nor do they rent right off of Verizon.
Google Fi service was great when it worked. Their customer service is worse than comcast. My phone suddenly wouldn’t connect to 5G for some reason and cannot make phone calls at all. I’m 3 weeks into an issue with their phone that’s under warranty, and they are giving me the run around.
The topics you covered are great but I want to know about customer service experiences. Google Fi has the WORST customer service experience. No one can help you over the phone. They record the info when you call and then someone reaches out via email with an average response time of 1 business day.
Is visible better than mint? I have mint but I wanna try something different
yes
not sure how visible wins highest data download and upload speeds… they are pretty sure compared to mint/google fi .. atleast in the northeast.
Google fi is great for frequent traveling
I just looked at GoogleFi. It is way more expensive than other carrier in the type of plan. $10/GB with the $20 plan. PLUS tax and fees. ($10-20% more). At 3 GB, you may as well go with the $50 plan. Which is really $57-64 a month out the door. Visible is $25 out the door. So this doesn't make sense. Thanks for the informative video though.
visible is not a mvno
Your better as a blonde Ms Sherry !
To avoid less headache from those smaller carriers just use the main source smh
But they're expensive
Still a babe.
Don't try to signup if you have a Direct Express green Master Card for your oldster SS-- google doesn't accept OLD homeless people ha ha. For real!
Chrome phones suck!!!!!! Even though you have downloaded the app they want you to upload another app so that you can use the app you have already downloaded!!!!!! It is a never-ending cycle of denial and turn down of uploads! I HATE THIS FREAKING PHONE! I spend more time moving in and out of aps just to bypass the advertisements! I swear I am so sorry to have accepted this phone instead of my Samsung! Do not fall for this crap substitution! It really sucks!!!!!!
googleFI still the best i think! cuz 1yr YT n google1 cloud, thats massive!! add that money if you would have to pay those services xtra
