Best Freedom Mobile Phone Plans for 2024: Data, talk, & text from $19/month

When Freedom Mobile launched (originally as Wind Mobile), it disrupted the wireless industry by offering significantly more data than competitors for a lot less. Our current best Freedom Mobile plan picks are no exception:

• The 5G Unlimited CA-US 100GB plan takes the top spot thanks to its 100GB of 5G data for just $50/month.    
• The 5G Unlimited CA-US 50GB offers excellent value at just $34/month when you bring your own phone.
• The $29 4G LTE plan is one of the best basic plans in the country, with unlimited talk and text and 6GB of 4G LTE data.

To maximize your experience with Freedom Mobile, you’ll need to stay within the Freedom coverage area most of the time. Otherwise, you’ll be stuck with slow connections to partner networks if you've exceeded your nationwide data.

Read on to find the best Freedom Mobile cell phone plans right now.

Best Freedom Mobile
Premium Smartphone plan

5G Unlimited CA-US 100GB | $50/month

• Pros: Tons of in-network data, large phone selection, 5G speeds
• Cons: Expensive monthly payment, limited network

Freedom Mobile is now offering 5G speeds, thanks to their partnership with VIdeotron. The 5G Unlimited CA-US Plan is the best of their 5G plans, offering 100GB of full-speed 5G data for just $50/month. If you're a post-secondary student, you can get it even cheaper, at just $40/month.

You can finance any phone that Freedom offers on this plan, including top-of-the-line models like the Apple iPhone 15 and the Google Pixel 8. If you've got a decent device lying around at home, you can also bring your own phone to this plan and save some money in the process, though you'll miss out on that large data bonus.       

There are tradeoffs when signing up for Freedom, however. The network's infrastructure isn't as strong as the "Big Three" of Rogers, Bell, and Telus. Freedom's mobile coverage is strong in major Canadian cities like Toronto and Calgary but is spotty at best in many other places.

Best Freedom Mobile
Moderate Data Plan

5G Unlimited CA-US 50GB | $34/month

• Pros: Generous in-network data allotment, includes nationwide data
• Cons: Minimal nationwide data, limited-time offer

Freedom's moderate plans offer more than many of their competitors' high-end deals. We recommend bringing your own device to most plans, considering most people have perfectly serviceable phones lying around at home. But Freedom makes the decision a no-brainer, giving you a BYOD discount that knocks this excellent plan down to just $34/month.  

Don't have a device at home? You can finance almost every phone that Freedom offers on this plan, so you can leverage your fast 5G to the max with a new device, like the iPhone 13, Google Pixel 7, and the Samsung Galaxy S24. If you're interested in trading in a phone, you can save up to $300 on the price of a new device.

No matter how much data you have, it’s important to keep track of how much you’ve used. Read our guide to avoid overage fees and slowed speeds. 

Best Freedom Mobile Plans
for Basic Use

4G LTE Plan | $29/month

• Pros: Cheap, bring-your-own-phone discount
• Cons: Minimal data, no nationwide data

Freedom's known for its generous in-network data allotments, but it also has plans for more basic users. This plan offers 6GB of data on the Freedom network, along with unlimited Canada-wide calling and international texting, for $29/month. Freedom also offers varying amounts of bonus data with this plan depending on when you activate.

You can finance a handful of devices with this plan, including the iPhone 12 and the Samsung Galaxy A14 5G, but it doesn't include any nationwide data. Before signing up, you'll need to be certain that the price is worth the tradeoff of having limited connectivity outside of major cities.

4G LTE Starter Plan | $19/month

• Pros: Cheap monthly payment, unlimited talk and text
• Cons: Small data allotment

This plan is perfect for seniors or students on a budget, offering unlimited Canada-wide minutes, unlimited messages, and 1GB of 4G LTE data on the Freedom Network for just $19/month. The plan also offers the opportunity to pick up a brand new cheap smartphone, like the Samsung Galaxy A03s or the Motorola Moto G Pure, though the biggest savings come for those who BYOD.

While the data allotment on this is rather low, it's still better than many prepaid plans in Canada. Even better, with this Freedom plan, you'll never be charged an overage fee if you exceed 250MB: Freedom will throttle your speed, but you'll still be able to use your phone for basic functions, like browsing the web.

Methodology: How WhistleOut rates cell phone plans

WhistleOut evaluates phone plans based on the following criteria:

• Price & value: Not all cheap plans are “bad,” and not all expensive plans are worth it. We look at everything a plan includes and compare it to other plans from the same carrier as well as similar plans from competitors in the market, to determine whether the value is consistent with the price.
• High-speed data: Also called “premium” data, this is how much data you get at full 4G/5G speeds before they can or will slow down. The more guaranteed high-speed data the plan includes, the better experience you’ll generally have—but there’s also usually a limit to how much you actually need, and we ensure that you’re not overpaying for data that will go unused.
• Coverage & network reliability: The breadth of each carrier’s 4G LTE and 5G networks determines your reception and service. Particularly in the case of 5G, some carriers offer far more robust coverage than others, which affects how their phone plans perform in different parts of the country.
• Plan extras and perks: In addition to the basics—talk, text, and data—some plans throw in freebies like hotspot allowances, cloud storage, entertainment subscriptions, or service discounts.

Our mobile experts leveraged proprietary data and real-world customer feedback to evaluate the best Freedom Mobile plans. We considered plan-specific elements, including perks, and premium data allowances. After performing hands-on testing and extensive research, including customer feedback, we picked the Freedom plans we feel meet the needs of most people.
