Sprint prepaid carrier Boost Mobile announced that its double data promotion, which was set to expire yesterday, will be extended for a limited time. With the promotion, not only will customers get double the data, but they will get the bonus at a cheaper price. The promotion slashes the data plan offerings by $5 while doubling the data and giving customers unlimited talk and text.
Under the promotion, the $40 plan that normally would give you unlimited talk, text, and 500 MB of data would cost just $35 for unlimited talk and text while adding 1 GB of data. There are three tiers in the prepaid plan structure. A $45 plan would give you 5 GB rather than $50 for 2.5 GB before and the new $55 plan would give users 10 GB of data per month to use rather than 5 GB for $60 previously.
Boost hasn't disclosed how long the limited time promotion will end this time around, though CNET's Roger Cheng is reporting that the deal will now expire January 5.
The prepaid carrier offers some recently released phones, including the Sharp AQUOS and the iPhone 6.
Have you taken advantage of the new promotional double data offerings from Boost? Let us know.

Boost Mobile extends discounted double data offer
Good deal just needs a better phone selection but it works for me and family
From my Note 3 to thee
I agree. newer android phones would be nice. or even if they started selling older flagships, like the first gen moto x. I noticed they sell new apple products rite away like the new iPhone 6's.

Sprint prepaid has pretty much the same pricing and you can have access to Roaming.
I use a Sprint MVNO on GS3 called FreedomPop. Cheaper pricing and I already had my BYOD Sprint phone in a drawer. ($20 a month for unlimited calls and text plus 1GB of data)

The phone selection is abysmal, either ridiculously expensive Apple crap or the lowest of the low end.
Middle of the road guys! Come on!
My friend got a refurbished HTC One SV for $80 from the boost website. It's not a high end HTC One but it's a great phone for the price she paid.

I have a Moto G on Boost. I pay $52 a month for unlimited talk & text, 5GB of data and insurance.
I came to the G from the Nexus 4 and can hardly tell the difference. There is a tad more lag and it fits better in my hand, but those are the only real differences.
I have a rooted Samsung S3 on Boost and love it. I have been on the $55 10GB plan since it was announced. Works good for me without getting throttled. I hope this plan continues.

Does Boost and other Sprint prepaids have the same exact coverage as sprint including roaming on other carrier's towers?

I believe so sprint owns them

Sprint native only. No roaming.
Boost does not support Roaming on other carriers.
