GoSmart Mobile: What Are the Pros and Cons?
Since 2013, I’ve been researching, reviewing, and writing about the wireless industry through BestMVNO with a focus on MVNOs.
In this guide, I will explain everything you need to know about GoSmart Mobile before you subscribe. I’ll review each of their phone plans with you, and go over any gotchas that they might have. I want you to learn the ins and outs of GoSmart Mobile so that you can make an informed decision on if this is the best place for you to spend your money.
Prepaid Phone Plans – No Credit Check
How GoSmart Mobile Plans Work
GoSmart Mobile was founded in 2012 by T-Mobile. It was later sold off and is now one of several prepaid wireless brands that is currently owned by TracFone. Service is still provided by the T-Mobile network.
One thing unique about this MVNO is that it does not offer data at 4G LTE data speeds. Speeds are limited to 3G with the exception of Facebook. Facebook gets unlimited LTE data access. GoSmart Mobile is said to consider HSPA+ as 3G data speeds.
Supported Phones And BYOD Devices
GoSmart Mobile does not sell any phones. If you want service with the company you will have to bring your own device (BYOD). Any out of contract T-Mobile compatible device will work. Most AT&T devices are also compatible as long as they are out of contract, paid off in full and not reported lost or stolen. Universally unlocked phones from manufacturer’s such as Motorola and Samsung are also compatible.
