Digital wireless service provider Visible has announced upgrades to its premium Visible+ phone plan. The highlight is a new Global Pass feature that allows Visible customers to use their phones in 140 countries worldwide.

The Visible Global Pass offers unlimited talk and text services, along with 2GB of high-speed data, for a flat rate of $10 per day. Visible+ members can also enjoy a free Global Pass usage day every month. The activation process can be done through the Visible app.

Visible customers will also now be able to enjoy unlimited data while roaming in Canada and Mexico. This means that they can enjoy full-speed roaming data of up to 2GB per day, after which they can continue to use data at unlimited 3G speeds.

Visible+ plan members can also now take advantage of an improved mobile hotspot feature, which offers doubled speeds of up to 10Mbps. It’s still not mind-blowing speed, but any improvement is welcome.

Visible has also announced that it will now offer its Connection Protection plan as a standard feature to all Visible members. This unique program ensures that Visible customers who face layoffs receive service credits of $25 per month for up to three months. The Visible+ plan now includes smartwatch connectivity as well.

In announcing the new features, Jeremy Bolton, managing director of Visible, said: “Our upgrades to the Visible+ plan — including a wireless plan that travels with you, more data and connectivity, and increased speeds — are a testament to delivering exceptional and transparent service, making Visible the most accessible, responsive, and innovative wireless carrier, all while maintaining affordability.”

Visible+ starts at $45 per month and includes the company’s fastest 5G speeds, 50GB premium data, global talk and text, and more. New customers can choose to bring their current devices or buy new ones from Visible, including popular models like the iPhone 15 Pro Max and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Your next phone could get a huge 5G upgrade, thanks to AI
Qualcomm Snapdragon X80 Modem-RF chip.

It’s that time of year again when Qualcomm ushers in its next generation of 5G modem technology. Announced at Mobile World Congress (MWC ) 2024, this year’s Snapdragon X80 5G Modem-RF system is the successor to last year’s Snapdragon X75, and it builds on the 5G Advanced foundation laid last year with more raw power and new AI features.

While the Snapdragon X75 moved the needle by adding support for the latest 5G Advanced standards, we’re still in that fourth phase of 5G technology, otherwise known as 3GPP Release 18 — and most carrier networks are still catching up. So, with no new standards to embrace, Qualcomm has focused on improving the inside of the Snapdragon X80 to take even fuller advantage of these cutting-edge 5G technologies.

This tiny dongle will change 5G connectivity forever

TCL is having a busy start to 2024. First, it announced a staggering number of new smartphones and two new tablets at CES, and now it’s unveiling something else at MWC 2024 — one of the world’s first 5G dongles that takes advantage of the latest power-efficient 5G standards.

TCL Mobile’s Linkkey IK511 is a pocketable new 5G adapter that’s powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X35 5G Modem-RF system, which debuted last year as the first 5G modem to support the new NR-Light “RedCap” standard.

T-Mobile just set another 5G speed record

T-Mobile’s rivals may be nipping at its heels in the 5G race, but the Uncarrier is determined to stay ahead of the game. It not only boasts the fastest and most expansive 5G network in the U.S., but it’s actively working on technologies that will help it reach even greater peak speeds.

Two years ago, T-Mobile used a relatively new technique known as 5G Carrier Aggregation (5G CA) to achieve the kind of 3Gbps download speeds on midband frequencies that had previously been the exclusive domain of extremely high (and extremely short-range) mmWave technologies. Now, it’s chalked up another 5G first by taking advantage of the latest developments to shatter the traditional cap on upload speeds over sub-6GHz frequencies.
