Xfinity Mobile has launched two new wireless plans—Mobile Plus and Mobile Select—designed to deliver premium features without the complexity, hidden fees, or high costs typically associated with major carriers. Announced on April 22, 2026, the new offerings represent the company’s most significant expansion to date and reflect a broader push to redefine what customers should expect from mobile service.

At a time when many consumers feel locked into expensive plans or forced to pay extra for essential features, Xfinity Mobile is positioning these new plans as a simpler, more transparent alternative. Both Mobile Plus and Mobile Select combine competitive pricing with bundled features, leveraging the company’s network of more than 23 million WiFi hotspots alongside one of the nation’s most reliable 5G networks.

A Shift Toward Simplicity and Value

The introduction of these plans addresses a growing demand among mobile users for straightforward pricing and fewer add-ons. Traditionally, premium features like device protection, international access, and upgrade flexibility come with additional fees. Xfinity Mobile is attempting to change that model by bundling these benefits directly into its plans.

“For too long, wireless customers have had to choose between paying more for premium features or settling for less; that's exactly what Mobile Plus and Mobile Select are here to change,” said Kohposh Kuda, SVP, Consumer Product Marketing at Comcast’s Xfinity. “We created these plans to give customers greater simplicity and flexibility. And with Mobile Plus, we are bundling the features customers value most like Lifetime Device Protection, Device Upgrades anytime for eligible customers, and global travel pass all in one monthly price, so they can have true peace of mind and save up to 50% on their mobile bill.”

Mobile Plus: A New Premium Standard

Mobile Plus is positioned as a first-of-its-kind premium wireless plan, primarily because it includes Lifetime Device Protection at no extra cost. This coverage applies to phones, tablets, and smartwatches and protects against damage, loss, and theft—benefits that most carriers typically sell separately.

Another standout feature is Device Upgrades Anytime. Eligible customers can upgrade their devices without needing to trade in or undergo inspections, making it easier to stay current with new technology. This flexibility removes one of the most common frustrations in wireless contracts, where upgrade cycles are often restricted.

In addition to these features, Mobile Plus includes:

  • Unlimited talk, text, and premium data
  • 4K streaming
  • Global Travel Pass for international connectivity
  • WiFi PowerBoost for speeds up to 1 Gbps on WiFi networks

The plan is priced at $45 per month per line, offering what Xfinity Mobile describes as a comprehensive premium experience in a single, predictable monthly cost.

Mobile Select: Essential Features at a Lower Price

For customers seeking a more budget-friendly option, Mobile Select delivers core features without sacrificing performance. The plan includes:

  • Unlimited talk and text
  • 50 GB of premium data
  • High-definition streaming
  • Global Travel Pass
  • WiFi PowerBoost

At $30 per month per line, Mobile Select is designed for users who want reliable connectivity and essential features without paying for extras they may not need.

Network Performance and Connectivity

Both plans benefit from Xfinity Mobile’s hybrid network approach, combining nationwide 5G coverage with an extensive network of WiFi hotspots. This “converged network” allows devices to automatically connect to the best available signal, improving performance and reducing data strain on cellular networks.

WiFi PowerBoost is a key differentiator, enabling speeds of up to 1 Gbps when connected to Xfinity WiFi. This feature is particularly valuable for activities like streaming, gaming, and large downloads, offering near home-broadband performance on mobile devices.

Global Travel Without Extra Fees

International travel is another area where Xfinity Mobile aims to simplify the experience. Both Mobile Plus and Mobile Select include a Global Travel Pass, allowing customers to stay connected in more than 215 destinations worldwide without purchasing additional plans or worrying about unexpected roaming charges.

Cost Savings and Availability

One of the most compelling aspects of the new plans is potential savings. According to Xfinity Mobile, customers switching from the three largest U.S. wireless carriers can reduce their monthly bills by up to 50%. Additionally, eligible Xfinity Internet customers may qualify for a free line under the Mobile Select plan.

The new plans are available immediately to both new and existing customers. Current users can switch through the Xfinity app, while new customers can sign up online.

A Broader Industry Impact

With Mobile Plus and Mobile Select, Xfinity Mobile is challenging traditional wireless pricing structures by bundling features that competitors often charge for separately. If successful, this approach could influence how other carriers package and price their services in the future.

For consumers, the appeal is clear: fewer decisions, fewer hidden costs, and more value built directly into the plan. Whether customers prioritize premium features or affordability, Xfinity Mobile’s latest offerings aim to provide a streamlined alternative in an increasingly complex wireless market.
