What is the point of T-Mobile's version of the Nexus 4?

On Sprint, does the ETF still apply if you brought your own phone started a new two-year contract?

It sure does.

Awesome, thanks for the quick answers guys.

T-Mobile only does 3 types of plans
1) Classic Plan. 2-year contract and subsidized phone.
2) Value Plan. 2-year contract and no subsidy. Cheaper monthly rates.
3) Prepaid. Month to month, no contract, no subsidy.

Truly unthrottled unlimited data is only available in #1 and #2. Prepaid has a 5GB throttle point on the highest plans. T-Mobile got rid of its postpaid no contract "Even More Plus" options at the start of 2012.

Sounds like the smart bet would be testing out the network with a prepaid plan for a month or two before switching over to a value plan if I am satisfied with the coverage. This should be easy enough right? Also, what is the ETF for the value plan option?

Yeah, this is probably the best option.

Nah, he's probably right. Both Verizon and AT&T allow you to sign up without a contract as long as you do not get phone subsidy. T-Mo used to do this but since they consider their plan "subsidized" they require the 2 year contract. Sprint OTOH is just a bunch of a-holes who want money so they require a 2 year contract and give you nothing for it if you bring your own phone.

I've learned something new today!
