Sprint has a variety of plans to suit individual or family or business personnel and the main attractions of Sprint’s plans are its free international coverage, blazing-fast largest 5G network, great plans at affordable prices without an activation fee.
Here’s a closer look at different plans offered by Sprint

Sprint family plans:
Sprint’s unlimited plans are shared plans among your family members. The prices mentioned above are for a single line, as the number of lines increases as per family members, Sprint offers great discounts and the total bill for family reduces considerably. See the prices below
Verdict:
You will find all Sprint plans at an affordable price with tons of unthrottled data, cheaper than other major operators but the main concern, you may face, is lower streaming and gaming quality on basic plans.
Coverage of the Sprint network may be another concern in some rural areas but otherwise, it has good coverage in urban areas and people enjoy great plans at affordable prices. Unlike other two major operators AT&T and Verizon, there is no activation fee for Sprint customers so a great saving for them.
Sprint has discontinued its Prepaid plans for new customers even though if you are looking for a new prepaid plan from Sprint, then you have to move to Sprint’s Prepaid brand Boost Mobile or T-Mobile otherwise you have plenty of great offers at dirt-cheap prices with MVNOs.
If customers of other major operators, who are concerned about their high billing from the present operator, they have great offer from Sprint, if they switch to Sprint, Sprint covers the cost of switching cost (pending bill balance and early termination fees) up to $650 per line and offer them a Prepaid Mastercard® Virtual Account or Prepaid Mastercard worth up to $650.
I hope this will help to decide, whether subscribe to a new line or to switch to Sprint. Please share your opinion in the comment box.
