The 4GEE Mobile Broadband plans now include data allowances increased by around 60%, with no rise in monthly fee. The 2GB plan now becomes a 3GB allowance, with the 3GB plan increasing to 5GB, and the 5GB allowance now extending to 8GB. All existing 4GEE customers will be automatically upgraded to the new data allowances, with no increase in their monthly fee, allowing them to get more out of superfast 4G at no extra cost.
EE is also launching a range of new 4GEE Mobile Broadband plans to offer customers greater choice. A new one month SIM only plan offers 5GB of data for £15.99, with the first month free for customers signing up before 23rd December. Customers wishing to include a 4GEE Dongle or Mobile Wi-Fi device can choose from 30 day plans, or 18 and 24 month plans, starting at £12.99 per month for 1GB.

EE reveals 4G pricing: UK LTE from £36/mo
EE’s consumer plans are based on a 24-month contract; if you’d rather go for a 12-month contract, it will cost an extra £10 per month. All subscribers get access to BT WiFi hotspots in addition to their mobile data allowance; if you run out of mobile data, you can add on more directly from the phone, priced at 50MB for £3, 500MB for £6, 2GB for £15, and 4GB for £20. Users will get an alert on their phone when they’ve used up 80-percent of their monthly allowance, and both tethering and VoIP use are permitted.

Sprint vs T-Mobile USA - two unlimited data options comparision
Conclusion. On a financial basis, T-Mobile wins at every tier, and offers an even better deal if you're willing to bring in your own phone and forgo a contract.
T-Mobile also addresses the lack of an iPhone with its own Micro SIM card and ability to serve unlocked iPhones, but that's likely too much of a hassle for most customers. Sprint has a superior lineup, even if its phones can't yet take full advantage of the fastest possible network.
Of course, coverage is the real wild card. Customers in the few Sprint LTE markets that are up will have a superior experience. Coverage on either carrier will vary greatly depending on location, time, interference, and local wireless traffic. By the numbers, T-Mobile offers the best deal, but you should do your homework before committing to either unlimited data option.

European LTE operators look to new pricing strategies
The new stady by Wireless Intelligence show that 4G/LTE data costs US$2.50 per GB on average in Europe, around half the global average of US$4.86.
The most competitive LTE market in Europe is identified as Sweden where all four of the country’s mobile operators have launched the next-generation technology. The Swedish market-leader TeliaSonera had an estimated 170,000 LTE connections in Q2, accounting for almost 3 percent of its total subscriber base, while rivals 3 Sweden, Telenor and Tele2 have also launched LTE services (the latter two via a network-sharing joint-venture known as Net4Mobility). As a result, a Swedish 4G data contract can cost as little as $0.63 per GB per month (at both Tele2 and 3 Sweden). By comparison, the best value 4G data tariff at the world’s largest LTE operator, US market-leader Verizon Wireless, works out at $7.50 per GB.
The study found that operators in Europe have used the deployment of LTE to overhaul their mobile broadband pricing models. In particular, many operators struggling with overloaded networks have taken the opportunity to phase out unlimited data deals in favour of speed-based offerings tied to data allowances in an effort to more effectively monetise mobile data.
The model is typically used by European operators to price mobile broadband offerings regardless of the underlying technology used; typical advertised maximum speeds are 7.2 Mb/s, 14.4 Mb/s (HSPA), 42.2 Mb/s (HSPA+) and 100 Mb/s (LTE), though several operators market more realistic speeds rather than the theoretical top speeds.
Tariffs are then priced in line with the advertised speeds. At 7.2 Mb/s, a 10 GB monthly allowance costs $23 on average, rising to $44 for an 80 Mb/s service (the highest speed at which a 10 GB plan is available). At the other end of the scale, an unlimited plan costs $35 at 7.2 Mb/s rising to $70 at 80 Mb/s.
Conversely, at a per GB level, the average price of data decreases as network speeds increase. The average cost per GB at 7.2 Mb/s in Europe is calculated at $6.20, dropping to around $1.15 per GB at 80 Mb/s (LTE). This is because the maximum speed rates for mobile broadband tend to be packaged with the largest monthly data allowances.
The new pricing strategies used for LTE in Europe has meant that LTE has usually been marketed as a standalone ‘4G’ service. This is in contrast to markets such as the US where LTE is usually offered as part of a wider mobile broadband package that typically includes 3G connectivity.
