Mint Mobile REALLY wants to give you 50% off your phone bill this Black Friday — here are three deals that make it happen

Your phone bill may not be top of mind when shopping for Black Friday deals, but Mint Mobile is attempting to change all of that with its new lineup of holiday offers. For a limited time, the T-Mobile-owned MVNO carrier is dropping ALL of its data plans to a mere $15 per month during your first three months of service ($45 upfront). Sign up for the Unlimited plan and you're looking at a straight 50% discount. 

And that's not the only Mint Mobile deal launching this holiday season. You can also bundle your purchase of wireless with a great Android phone and get 50% off an entire YEAR of Unlimited. Oh, and the carrier is carving up to 50% off the phones in question, just for kicks. Why is Mint Mobile offering so many half off deals right now? Who knows, but it's certainly making Black Friday 2024 more interesting.

Mint Mobile is an interesting carrier. Unlike other phone companies that bog you down with confusing contracts and hidden fees, Mint keeps it simple by selling T-Mobile-powered wireless in three, six, and 12-month increments of time. All of Mint's plans come with high-speed data on T-Mobile's legendary 5G network, plus you get a free mobile hotspot, calls to Mexico and Canada, and no confusing fine print. The carrier also supports most of the best Android phones, and there are typically loads of great Mint Mobile deals that can get you into the service for dirt cheap. 

Sure, there are some drawbacks with Mint Mobile, but they are mostly due to the carrier's simple business structure. Mint has no retail locations, for instance, and you must purchase a minimum of three months of service to join. The Unlimited plan also only gives you 10GB of mobile hotspot data each month, and you lose out on some of the premium international perks and entertainment benefits offered by certain larger carriers. 

With Mint, what you see is what you get, and right now I'm seeing some pretty outstanding Black Friday offers. If you're on the hunt for a new wireless carrier, that might be enough.
