Best mobile plan deals for May

7NEWS09-05-2025

Each month as telcos review and switch up their mobile plan deals, we also keep tabs on who is offering the best of the best.
Below we've broken down the best mobile plan deals for the month across prepaid, SIM-only and deals specific for leading devices including iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel.
Best prepaid mobile phone plan
Vodafone-powered telco, felix, takes out the top spot for May's best prepaid mobile plan. It comes with 50GB of data at download speeds of up to 150Mbps, which suits even heavy-users. With flex's current deal, new customers pay just half price for the first three months, then the plan increases to a still fairly reasonable $30 per month thereafter.
If felix isn't for you, here are some more popular prepaid mobile plan options, all with at least 30GB of data:
Best SIM-only mobile phone plan
For SIM-only plans, we recommend SpinTel's $29 mobile plan. With 50GB of data, it offers plenty of value for money. It's also easy to ensure usage won't be exceeded, thanks to SpinTel's capped data option and online usage monitoring capabilities.
Compare this plan to other popular SIM-only plans around the same price point with at least 30GB of data:
Best iPhone plan
For those keen to upgrade to the iPhone 16 Pro, Vodafone's $49 Small plan is tough to beat. Offering the most value for money of the Big Three telcos, customers will save $10 per month on the plan, plus up to $350 on device repayments under its current promotion.
For some alternative plans, here's how this plan compares to others from Vodafone itself, Optus and Telstra on the iPhone 16 Pro 128GB with 36-month repayments:
Best Samsung Galaxy plan
Vodafone comes out on top again with its $49 Small plan being the best choice for Samsung Galaxy users. Thanks to its current Double Data promo, it offers 100GB of data every month at no extra cost, up from the usual 50GB allowance.
Not sure if you need that much data? Here's how Vodafone's plan compares to Telstra and Optus on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 256GB with 36-month repayments:
Best Google Pixel plan
And for a trifecta, here's Vodafone again. This is one of the most affordable Pixel 9 plans at just $76.47 per month for the device on a 36-month repayment plan.
The plan is free from excess data charges and includes $5 per day roaming. Plus customers will score a bonus Google One Premium subscription. This offer ends October 31.
If the above Vodafone plan isn't for you, here are some alternatives to choose from for the Google Pixel 9 128GB plan:

The billion-dollar industry with scant consumer protections

Virtually every man, woman and teenager has a mobile phone. Ninety-eight per cent of adults use mobile phones for calls. Behind your phone service is a multibillion-dollar industry critical to education, health, business, leisure, civic life and - in an emergency - life and death. But can we trust our telco providers? And as consumers what protections can we rely upon? Late last month deeply concerning allegations were levelled at Telstra by rival telco TPG/Vodafone which yet again raised red flags about the trust consumers can place in telcos. TPG claims that Telstra - which is Australia's largest telco by some margin - has misled consumers by making false claims about the size of its mobile network in its advertising, website content, annual reports and other sales material. Australians take note of claims made by telcos about their network size, network reliability and network performance in deciding their mobile provider. They do so on the presumption that telcos are honest with this information. Many Australians, particularly in regional and remote areas, sign up for more expensive plans with Telstra because they believe it's the only option for reliable coverage. If these latest allegations are true - and the coverage advantage is not as big as people have been led to believe - regional consumers could be forgiven for feeling betrayed. When consumers are misled, markets are distorted, and trust is eroded. That is why these latest allegations are so serious and should be investigated by the ACCC. Of course, the latest allegations are not the only indication that our trust in the major telcos is brittle. New research undertaken by Essential Media shows that 41 per cent of consumers have limited faith in their telco to act in their best interest -and almost a third said the coverage they received didn't match what they were led to expect. The Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman has recently identified a spike in complaints, including those for poor sales conduct - misleading and high-pressure tactics - as the most common systemic issue it investigates. In parallel, credit assessments in the telco sector remain inconsistent and inadequate. Complaints to the Ombudsman about poor credit checks increased by over 30 per cent in the past financial year, with financial counsellors reporting that many of their clients are routinely signed onto contracts they simply cannot afford. These concerns are not academic, they have a real-world impact everyday for Australians. The fact that we cannot rely on what telcos tell us about their coverage is why ACCAN supports the Government's National Audit of Mobile Coverage, which is gathering real-world data through 180,000 kilometres of on-the-ground testing each year. This information is important as it could help to build an independent coverage map, a key recommendation of the recent Regional Telecommunications Review, giving Australians accurate, unbiased insight into where they can expect service. But independent mapping will not fix all the problems with the nation's major telecommunications carriers. The fact is there is precious little to protect telecommunications consumers. The telecommunications industry itself develops the TCP Code (the sector's consumer protections rulebook) and is required to conduct a review every five years. The TCP Code already offers inadequate consumer protections and is not underpinned by effective compliance, enforcement and penalty arrangements. There are countless examples of consumer harm from this weak regulation. In May, ACCAN voted "no" in a ballot of the TCP Code Review Committee- of which we are a part - on the question of whether the draft Code should be sent to the regulator, the Australian Communications and Media Authority for consideration. Despite this, and despite 22 other consumer groups already walking away from the industry led code process, the ballot was carried. The revised Code has now been submitted to the ACMA for potential registration - a process that raises significant questions about whether the proposed updates meet community needs. Domestic, family and sexual violence and financial hardship have been taken out of the TCP Code, replaced with direct regulation in the last 18 months. This is a recognition of the critical nature of the problems, and the inadequacy of the code system. The current TCP Code fails to provide adequate consumer protections in two critical areas: irresponsible sales and inadequate credit assessments. These gaps result in thousands of Australians being sold plans they can't afford, don't understand, or never needed in the first place. These harms are exacerbated by sales incentive structures that reward telco staff for maximising sales volume and value - an eerily similar model to that called out and reformed in the financial services sector following the banking royal commission. Despite months of consultation, the final version of the draft Code submitted to the ACMA has not meaningfully strengthened these protections. The sales clauses still allow commission-based incentives and fail to impose clear duties to ensure affordability or product suitability. We are concerned that proposals in the Telecommunications (Enhancing Consumer Safeguards) Bill 2025 before parliament to make code compliance mandatory will not fully solve the problem - because the issue lies in the content of the industry-led code. The Ombudsman, the ACMA and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) have all criticised the process in which the industry is in charge of writing the nation's telecommunications protections. ACCAN has now joined the 22 consumer groups fed up with weak telecommunications regulation in the Fair Call Coalition. The answer is simple: new Minister for Communications, Anika Wells must reject the farcical process by which the industry (Communications Alliance) writes the nation's primary consumer protection code for telecommunications - and apply robust and enforceable rules in key areas of consumer harm. Consumers deserve and demand appropriate protections - and will be closely watching the leadership brought to bear by the federal government and the regulator to ensure their safety.

This ring wants to help you live longer. I gave it a try

From smartwatches to connected scales and even Wi-Fi beds, it's a well-established idea that access to information about how our bodies are running can help us meet our wellness goals, get an early warning on potential issues and encourage healthy habits. And a new gadget has emerged recently that promises 24/7 tracking in the most subtle way possible; disguised as a ring. Smart rings from Samsung and Oura have shown what's possible, and the new Ultrahuman Ring Air is an even lighter and less conspicuous option. At $600 (and no subscription necessary), it's a plain and extremely light ring in black, gold, silver or grey titanium, with a comfy hypoallergenic epoxy on the inside that lets you peer in at the hardware for measuring heart rate, skin temperature, movement, blood oxygen and more. And, of course, it connects to its own app on your iPhone or Android. Physically, it's an undeniably masculine ring, but it does look like regular dumb jewellery at a glance. Mine has picked up a lot of scratches and marks on the coating over a few weeks of wear, so I'm not sure what it would look like in a year. It just feels like wearing a ring, and most of the time I forget it's there. The ring takes heart rate readings periodically, counts steps and detects workouts for finer tracking. When you sleep or nap, it calculates stages and monitors movement and timing. And all the data goes to the main platform to be crunched into insights about stress, recovery, alertness and more. Ultrahuman is a platform based in India that focuses on longevity through data tracking. In addition to the ring, it sells a biosensor for continuous glucose monitoring, so you can see the effect of food on your metabolism, and the software is big on keeping biomarkers within certain zones. While collecting data on our bodies can be good, it's also known that becoming too attached to the numbers can be decidedly unhealthy, and it's easy to be reminded of this when glancing at all the goals and dashboards in the Ultrahuman app. Whether the platform can ultimately help people live longer is a bit beyond the scope of this review. But based purely on my experience with this ring and its app, even if I could somehow be assured that following every one of the suggestions would net me a few extra days on Earth, I'm not certain it would be worth it. By default, Ultrahuman bombards me with reminders to stick to my 'caffeine permissible window', which apparently doesn't start until two hours after I wake up; and warnings to limit light exposure by 7pm. I get vague informational updates about sleep debt and stress rhythm, reminders to stretch my limbs and walk around, and prods about infinitesimal changes in my heart rate variability. If you dive into the data in the app, you can get lost in a sea of minima zones, phase advance goals (it's tracking my progress towards waking my body up earlier, but I already get up at 6.30?), sympathetic activation and hormone health.
