T-Mobile<\/a> and Verizon<\/a> have been offering free network trials for a couple of years at this point; now, AT&T has finally introduced<\/a> a trial program of its own. It\u2019s a no-commitment way to give the AT&T network a try while still holding on to your current carrier, number, and device. Pretty cool! But you\u2019ll need an unlocked phone, which might disqualify a lot of people who are still paying off their current device \u2014 though the FCC is trying to do something<\/a> about that.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

AT&T calls its program Try AT&T, and at the moment, it\u2019s iOS only; the carrier\u2019s blog post states that Android support will be introduced in 2025. The trial makes use of eSIM, which allows you to use a secondary line on your phone without ditching your primary number. Likewise, you\u2019ll need an eSIM-compatible device \u2014 iPhone XR or newer \u2014 to take part. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There\u2019s no credit card or commitment required, you just need to head to the Try AT&T website<\/a> or download the myAT&T app to get started. The program runs for 30 days and includes 100GB of data plus 25GB of hotspot data. Oh, and you can\u2019t be a current AT&T customer, but that one seems obvious.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To take advantage of any of these programs, you\u2019ll need one important thing: an unlocked phone. If your phone is financed through a carrier installment plan then it might be locked to your current carrier. T-Mobile and AT&T won\u2019t unlock a phone until it\u2019s paid off<\/a>; only Verizon will unlock a phone<\/a> with an outstanding balance. It\u2019s confusing at the very least, but the FCC introduced a proposal<\/a> this year to simplify things by requiring all carriers to automatically unlock a device 60 days after it\u2019s been activated. That proposal is still a long way from becoming law, but if that does happen, then comparison shopping between carriers could become a lot easier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
