Visible by Verizon just launched a new plan that will have you considering whether it’s time to switch carriers or not. The average person pays roughly $150 a month for their phone bill, but what if you could drop that down to as little as $25 per line while keeping unlimited data, spam detection, and so much more? It would be hard to pass up, and that’s exactly what Visible has planned.

Visible by Verizon offers lower-cost alternatives to traditional phone plans. It has three options, starting at $25 per month for the Visible tier, $35 for the Visible+ tier, and $45 for the Visible+ Pro tier. All three plans offer unlimited data, talk, and text on 5G networks, automatic spam detection, and even smartwatch service for an extra $10 per month. Each plan also includes unlimited hotspot data, international calls to the US and Mexico, and several other perks.

The newest addition to the lineup is the Visible+ Pro plan, and it’s kind of mind-blowing. It includes smartwatch service as part of its standard lineup, so you don’t have to pay extra for that. You can also stream video up to 4K on the go, and your hotspot is three times faster than the Visible plan.

It also includes calling to 85 different countries and texting to more than 200 countries at no added cost, two Global Pass days per month, and $10/month savings on Verizon Home Internet.

On top of all of that, you have 24/7 access to actual humans through the customer care team, and if you lose your job, the plan will cover up to three months of your bill while you search for a job. These perks are tough to match on traditional phone plans, and when you can pay $450 for an annual subscription ($90 less than paying monthly), the savings just continue to add up.

With the release of the iPhone 16 models recently, you may think Apple is all done with new releases for a while. Perhaps not, as attention is now shifting to the upcoming year, and we may get another new iPhone sooner than you think. Apple's first new handset, expected in early 2025, will likely be the iPhone SE 4. We now have a clearer idea of when this phone might be launched.

According to Korea's Ajunews (via MacRumors), component manufacturer LG Innotek is expected to begin mass production of a camera module that will potentially be used in the iPhone SE4 as early as next month. The company will supply the front camera module for the budget-friendly phone. The report also stated camera production often starts about three months before the final phone arrives on the market. A spring 2025 release for the iPhone SE 4 has long been rumored, and the report seems to back this up.
