Our Opinion

Customers who heavily value Walmart+ and need 20GB of hotspot use might consider this plan if Verizon LTE coverage is strong locally. For $65 per month, it includes unlimited phone data with 60GB of premium data, 20GB of hotspot use, Walmart+ membership, and calling to more than 60 countries.

The recorded package includes unlimited talk, text & data, unlimited hotspot at up to 5 Mbps (Verizon network), 5G, 500GB cloud, and 5 more listed features. Its Unlimited @ 5 Mbps hotspot allowance is useful only if that speed and amount match the way you tether.

The plan lacks 5G, limits video to 480p, adds taxes, and offers too little improvement over the cheaper Gold tier to justify its price for most people. Compare the carrier's current checkout terms and test local coverage before transferring every line.

Bottom line: it is a credible fit for the right usage pattern, but it is not an automatic best choice for everyone.
