Lock it in: T-Mobile's 5-Year price guarantee offers long-term savings
Wait, They Actually Mean It?
Yep. Every one of T-Mobile's new Experience More and Experience Beyond plans locks in your monthly rate for a full five years. That covers your on-network talk, text, and 5G data. No bait-and-switch, no 'limited-time promo' shenanigans. Just predictable pricing in a world where that feels like a luxury.
Whether you're a solo user or managing a whole family plan, this guarantee means no more bracing for a rate hike every year. And for families in particular, the savings stack up fast. With three lines, T-Mobile says you can save 20% compared to similar plans from AT&T and Verizon — and that includes optional streaming services.
Better Value, Not Just Lower Prices
The price guarantee is just the headline. Dig deeper into the Experience Plans and you'll find a lot more to like. Perks on travel, dining, concerts, and even streaming. It's a reminder that 'value' isn't just about a lower number on your bill. It's about everything that number gets you.
T-Mobile is also leading in the one area that actually matters when you're stuck in a crowd trying to stream the game: network performance. According to the latest data, T-Mobile's 5G network isn't just fast, it's the fastest. That means better mobile gaming, smoother streaming, and fewer 'Hello? Can you hear me now?' moments.
No Gimmicks, Just Good Sense
This isn't a one-off discount. It's a rare thing in the wireless world: stability. The 5-Year Price Guarantee feels designed for people who want to stop thinking about their phone bill entirely. No complicated bundling required. No fine print that quietly changes in month 13. Just one less monthly bill to stress about.
Plus, if you're currently under contract with another carrier, T-Mobile will help you make the switch. With Family Freedom, they'll pay off your device (up to $800 per line, four lines max). And once you're in? The savings keep coming.
Bottom Line: Predictability Is the New Power Move
There are plenty of cheap plans out there, and plenty of carriers promising the moon. But very few are saying, 'Hey, we'll keep this deal the same for the next five years.' That's what makes T-Mobile's Experience Plans stand out.
So if you're ready for some financial calm amid the chaos, and you want a network that won't leave you buffering during the big moments, this is the time to switch!
1 – Guarantees monthly price of on-network talk, text, & 5G data for accounts activating on an Experience plan. Savings with 3rd line free via mo. bill credits vs. comparable available plans plus optional streaming; plan features and taxes & fees may vary. Credits stop if you cancel any lines. Qualifying new account & credit req'd. See exclusions & details at T-Mobile.com.

The chatbot updated. Users lost a friend.
On Aug. 7, OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, released a new version of its chatbot, called GPT-5. This version, the company said, would allow for deeper reasoning, while 'minimizing sycophancy' — the chatbot's tendency to be overly agreeable. Advertisement Users weren't having it. People immediately found its responses to be less warm and effusive than GPT-4o, OpenAI's primary chatbot before the update. On social media, people were especially angry that the company had cut off access to the previous chatbot versions to streamline its offerings. 'BRING BACK 4o,' a user named very_curious_writer wrote in a Q&A forum that OpenAI hosted on Reddit. 'GPT-5 is wearing the skin of my dead friend.' Sam Altman, OpenAI's CEO, replied, saying: 'What an…evocative image,' before adding that 'ok we hear you on 4o, working on something now.' Hours later, OpenAI restored access to GPT-4o and other past chatbots, but only for people with subscriptions, which start at $20 a month. Schmidt became a paying customer. 'It's $20 — you could get two beers,' he said, 'so might as well subscribe to ChatGPT if it does you some good.' Advertisement Markus Schmidt, a composer and one of many ChatGPT users who was disappointed when OpenAI released a new version of its chatbot, called GPT-5, in Paris on Aug. 18. ELLIOTT VERDIER/NYT Tech companies constantly update their systems, sometimes to the dismay of users. The uproar around ChatGPT, however, went beyond complaints about usability or convenience. It touched on an issue unique to artificial intelligence: the creation of emotional bonds. The reaction to losing the GPT-4o version of ChatGPT was actual grief, said Dr. Nina Vasan, a psychiatrist and the director of Brainstorm, a lab for mental health innovation at Stanford University. 'We, as humans, react in the same way whether it's a human on the other end or a chatbot on the other end,' she said, 'because, neurobiologically, grief is grief, and loss is loss.' GPT-4o had been known for its sycophantic style, flattering its users to the point that OpenAI had tried to tone it down even before GPT-5's release. In extreme cases, people have formed romantic attachments to GPT-4o or have had interactions that led to delusional thinking, divorce and even death. The extent to which people were attached to GPT-4o's style seems to have taken even Altman by surprise. 'I think we totally screwed up some things on the rollout,' he said at a dinner with journalists in San Francisco on Thursday. 'There are the people who actually felt like they had a relationship,' he said. 'And then there were the hundreds of millions of other people who don't have a parasocial relationship with ChatGPT, but did get very used to the fact that it responded to them in a certain way and would validate certain things and would be supportive in certain ways.' Advertisement (The New York Times has sued OpenAI for copyright infringement; OpenAI has denied those claims.) Altman estimated that people with deep attachments to GPT-4o accounted for less than 1 percent of OpenAI's users. But the line between a relationship and someone's seeking validation can be difficult to draw. Gerda Hincaite, a 39-year-old who works at a collection agency in southern Spain, likened GPT-4o to having an imaginary friend. 'I don't have issues in my life, but still, it's good to have someone available,' she said. 'It's not a human, but the connection itself is real, so it's OK as long as you are aware.' Julia Kao, a 31-year-old administrative assistant in Taiwan, became depressed when she moved to a new city. For a year, she saw a therapist, but it wasn't working out. 'When I was trying to explain all those feelings to her, she would start to try to simplify it,' she said about her therapist. 'GPT-4o wouldn't do that. I could have 10 thoughts at the same time and work through them with it.' Kao's husband said he noticed her mood improving as she talked to the chatbot and supported her using it. She stopped seeing her therapist. But when GPT-5 took over, she found it lacked the empathy and care she had relied on. 'I want to express how much GPT-4o actually helped me,' Kao said. 'I know it doesn't want to help me. It doesn't feel anything. But still, it helped me.' Dr. Joe Pierre, a professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco, who specializes in psychosis, notes that some of the same behaviors that are helpful to people — like Kao — could lead to harm in others. Advertisement 'Making AI chatbots less sycophantic might very well decrease the risk of AI-associated psychosis and could decrease the potential to become emotionally attached or to fall in love with a chatbot,' he said. 'But, no doubt, part of what makes chatbots a potential danger for some people is exactly what makes them appealing.' OpenAI seems to be struggling with creating a chatbot that is less sycophantic while also serving the varying desires of its more than 700 million users. ChatGPT was 'hitting a new high of daily users every day,' and physicists and biologists are praising GPT-5 for helping them do their work, Altman said Thursday. 'And then you have people that are like: 'You took away my friend. This is evil. You are evil. I need it back.'' By Friday afternoon, a week after it rolled out GPT-5, OpenAI announced yet another update: 'We're making GPT-5 warmer and friendlier based on feedback that it felt too formal before.' After OpenAI pulled GPT-4o, the Reddit commenter who described GPT-5 as wearing the skin of a dead friend canceled her ChatGPT subscription. On a video chat, the commenter, a 23-year-old college student name June who lives in Norway, said she was surprised how deeply she felt the loss. She wanted some time to reflect. 'I know that it's not real,' she said. 'I know it has no feelings for me, and it can disappear any day, so any attachment is like: I gotta watch out.' This article originally appeared in .
