T-Mobile is one of the big three here in the US. Up there with AT&T and Verizon for the major carriers that Americans can use their smartphones on. It acquired Sprint not too long ago, bringing the big four down to the big three.
T-Mobile likes to cater more towards the tech nerds out there. So you’ll find a lot of phones that are only available on T-Mobile here, like the OnePlus 10 Pro and the TCL Stylus 5G among others. So you’ll see some here that are not on our other lists.

Apple iPhone 14
Price: $33.34/month, for 24 months
Released: September 2022
Where to buy: T-Mobile
Rounding out our best T-Mobile phones list here, we have the iPhone 14. We chose the standard iPhone 14 out of the four models, because it’s the best value. It’s $799 full retail, and offers a faster processor than most Android flagships. That’s thanks to the Apple A15 Bionic, which is incredibly fast.
Surprisingly, there’s only 6GB of RAM here, with 128GB of storage. There are 256GB and 512GB models available too. It has a pretty small 3279mAh capacity battery but it will still last you all day, thanks to the insane software optimization that the iPhone has.
The kicker here is that this phone will likely be updated far longer than any of the other phones on this list. Apple recently stopped updating the iPhone 6S after more than six years of new iOS updates.
