The Pixel 6 and 6 Pro are outstanding all-around smartphones, but are they a good fit for people who use Mint Mobile? In a lot of ways, Google hit a home run with the Pixel 6 series. Both phones have top-notch cameras, snappy performance, and some of the best software the Android market has to offer. They aren't perfect, but at $599 for the Pixel 6 and $899 for the 6 Pro, they're among the best values currently available.
As with any phone, however, there's a big factor to consider before buying: carrier support. It doesn't matter if a smartphone has the very best display, processor, and camera system if it doesn't work with the carrier you get your wireless service from. Carrier compatibility is usually well-advertised for the big names like AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon. When it comes to smaller providers, though, that's where things get a little tricky.
Such is the case with Mint Mobile. Mint Mobile isn't nearly as big as the AT&Ts or Verizons of the world, yet it stands out as one of the better carrier options available. It has fast 5G speeds, flexible plan options, and delivers all of that at reasonable prices. The good news? Both the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro work flawlessly on Mint Mobile. Simply buy either phone unlocked from the Google Store, Best Buy, or Amazon. Order a Mint Mobile SIM card for the Pixel 6, pop it in, and your service should be up and running without a problem. You can also buy the 'Pixel 6 Bundle' directly from Mint Mobile and get a wireless plan purchased alongside it.
Best Mint Mobile Plans For The Pixel 6
If someone already has a Mint plan they like and is just upgrading their phone, there's not too much to consider. Buy the Pixel 6, insert your SIM card, and that's all there is to it. If you're new to Mint Mobile or looking to change your Mint plan, there are a few great options to choose from.
For someone who is often near Wi-Fi and doesn't use much mobile data, Mint Mobile's 4GB plan might be the best fit. It includes unlimited talk and text, 4GB of 5G/LTE data, mobile hotspot access, and free calling to Mexico and Canada — all for just $15/month. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Mint Mobile also has a killer unlimited plan. For just $30/month, the unlimited plan includes all of the same perks plus unlimited data. Regardless if you choose the 4GB plan, unlimited plan, or something in between, you can rest assured the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro will work just fine.
