Comcast is changing its Xfinity plans nationwide to make them simpler \u2014 and it\u2019s dropping data caps so that the plans have truly unlimited data.<\/p>\n
The company announced today<\/a> that it will now offer four plans \u2014 300 Mbps, 500 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 2 Gbps \u2014 across three different pricing tiers: an \u201cEveryday Price\u201d paid per month without a price guarantee, a lower price per month with a one-year price guarantee, and a price per month with a five-year price guarantee that\u2019s slightly more expensive than the one-year option.<\/p>\n The plans will include unlimited data with no data caps, spokesperson Joel Shadle confirms to The Verge. They\u2019ll also come with an Xfinity WiFi Gateway and a free line of Xfinity Mobile cellular service for one year. If you\u2019re currently on an Xfinity plan that\u2019s not one of the four tiers, you can stay on it until you repackage your plan, spokesperson Rachel Zabinski Williams says. <\/p>\n These updates follow Comcast\u2019s announcement of the five-year price lock option in April<\/a>. Comcast also recently started rolling out \u201cultra-low lag\u201d technology<\/a> in certain cities that could lower latency when using things like FaceTime or Nvidia\u2019s GeForce Now.<\/p>\n (Disclosure: Comcast is an investor in Vox Media, The Verge\u2019s parent company.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Comcast is changing its Xfinity plans nationwide to make them simpler \u2014 and it\u2019s dropping data caps so…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":43292,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[18422,712,50,242,158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-43291","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-internet","8":"tag-comcast","9":"tag-internet","10":"tag-news","11":"tag-tech","12":"tag-technology","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114806170776216332","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43291"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43291\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43292"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
