Only in the confusing realm of smartphone data plans can 'unlimited' not really mean unlimited. We started to see the big carriers cut back on all-you-can-eat data a few years ago, and T-Mobile was no different. The nation's smallest national carrier relied on vague language and semantics to justify its continued use of the word 'unlimited.' Now it looks like T-Mobile is going to finally offer real unlimited data again.

The new unlimited 4G data plan will be available starting on September 5, and it does away with all the caps and throttling that angered power users. T-Mobile will be charging a downright reasonable rate of $30 per-month for those on the classic plans, and just $20 for anyone on a value plan. The only bummer here is that the new plan cannot be combined with hotspot usage. If you want to tether to your phone (legitimately), you'll still have to get the 5GB or 10GB hotspot package, which won't include unlimited data on the phone.
T-Mobile's current data plans come with 2GB of full-speed data, after which speeds can be knocked back to 2G for the rest of the billing cycle. That is technically unlimited data most of it is just very slow. With this in mind, the new unlimited data plan seems like a big step up for those that need it.
