Unlimited Welcome saves $15 per month, while Unlimited Plus adds faster-network access, hotspot data, and higher-quality video.
Reviewed
Unlimited Plus is the better Verizon plan for most people who use hotspot or want faster-network and video features because the extra $15 adds 5G Ultra Wideband, 30GB of hotspot, and 4K video. Unlimited Welcome is the lower-cost choice for a basic phone-only line, but its lack of hotspot, 480p video limit, and exclusion of Ultra Wideband make the savings a poor trade for heavier users.

| Verizon Unlimited Plus | $80 | Unlimited | 30GB | Verizon | Monthly | Extra |

Current plan

Taxes are extra, and optional entertainment bundles can push an already high single-line price even higher.
Start with coverage where you use your phone most, then compare the complete bill, high-speed data, hotspot limits, prepayment, taxes, eligibility, and support. SaveOnPhone lists the full market, and payment never determines our recommendations.
