Calculating the cost of a smartphone is an expensive affair. Do you dig deep into your pockets and buy one of the best phones on the market or opt for a cheaper model? There’s a lot to consider, but what isn’t always taken into account when choosing new hardware is the carrier’s plan. Whether you pay off your phone monthly or rely on the call minutes or fast 5G data, every modern user and every phone needs a plan.

We are spoiled for choice when it comes to phone plans in 2024, but one thing is certain: nobody wants to spend more than they really need to. With this in mind, we want to know how much you spend each month on your personal phone plan. We are only interested in personal plans for a single usernot those that cover multiple users or families. How much You per month? Be sure to let us know by taking our survey below.

We’re well aware that many of the feature-rich plans cost over $15. Limited data and other drawbacks often hinder those who pay less. After all, not all of us can afford unlimited plans. Switching to a postpaid plan is often a more attractive solution, especially if you don’t need a new cell phone. There are several plans in this price range or below that are worth your consideration, as detailed in our guide to the best prepaid deals for $15 or less.

The last time we conducted this survey in 2022, most users were paying $40 or more, with the $10 to $19.99 range proving quite popular as well. Importantly, we did not exclude family plans from this particular survey, but it will be interesting to see how inflation and other financial trends have changed users’ willingness or ability to spend.

Of course, our comments are always open. Be sure to provide more details about your specific plan in the comments, including provider, data and other limits, and how they treated you.
