iPhone family plan costs in 2025 vary widely, from around $100-$170 for four unlimited lines on major carriers like T-Mobile (Essentials) or Verizon (Unlimited Welcome) to cheaper options with MVNOs like Mint Mobile (around $15/line) or customizable plans from Tello/Google Fi, averaging often between $160-$200+ for full-featured plans, with major factors being data limits, hotspot data, perks, and device financing not included in base plan costs.
Major Carrier Examples (4 Lines Unlimited):
T-Mobile Essentials: Around
$100/month total for 4 lines, great value.
Verizon Unlimited
Welcome: Also around $100/month total for 4 lines.
AT&T Unlimited
Extra: About $40.99/line ($164 total) for 4 lines with AutoPay, including
hotspot.
T-Mobile (Premium): Higher
tiers offer more data/hotspot, like ~$280 for 4 lines on their best plan,
says T-Mobile's
website.
Budget-Friendly
& MVNO Options (4 Lines):
Mint Mobile: Can be as low as
$15/line/month ($45 for 3 months upfront) for unlimited, says Mint Mobile's website.
Google Fi: Offers
customizable plans; 2 lines on Unlimited Premium can be ~$110 ($55 each),
notes Google Fi's website.
Spectrum Mobile: Offers $30/month unlimited for the second line (free first year for new users) on top of a single line, notes Spectrum Mobile's website.
Key
Cost Factors for 2025:
Data
Needs: Unlimited plans vary in high-speed data caps
(e.g., 30GB, 75GB, 100GB) before slowing, impacting price.
Perks: Subscriptions (Apple Music, YouTube Premium), hotspot data, international features add value, notes CNET.
Device Costs: These prices are for service; new iPhones (like the expected iPhone 17 series) add significant monthly financing costs.
Discounts: AutoPay, paperless billing, and multi-line bundling dramatically lower per-line rates.
In 2025, family plan costs for four lines typically range from $100 to $220 per month for service, with promotional "4 lines for $100" deals common among major carriers. Total costs vary based on whether you bundle new devices like the iPhone 17.
