Phone plans start at $55 with 2GB of data, tablets start at $15 for 250MB
AT&T has just announced that its separately-branded prepaid service called Aio Wireless will expand to be available nationwide starting in mid-September. The service, which is currently only available to customers in Florida, Texas, Metro-Atlanta and Chicago, will expand to cover customers across the country at an unspecified date in September. Not to be confused with AT&T's self-branded GoPhone prepaid brand, Aio Wireless offers lower levels of service and cheaper prices than GoPhone but also offers a wide range of handsets and BYOD options.
Aio Wireless offers a few different mid-range Android devices like the Samsung Galaxy Express and ZTE Prelude, but we're going to assume most will use these plans with their own device and a standalone $9.99 SIM card from the carrier. There are just two simple smart phone plans to choose from in either case — unlimited talk, text and data with 2GB of high-speed data for $55, or 7GB of high-speed data for $70 per month.
Following along with GoPhone's recent upgrade, Aio Wireless is now offering LTE data speeds to customers as well, which is a big upgrade for prepaid customers. The phone plan terms explicitly cap data speeds at 8mbps, however, which is not the case on GoPhone's plans in our experience.
