What is the difference between cellular data being used on my phone and cellular data being used on my notebook? Data is data.

Get Google fi if it’s available. Very consumer friendly. Actually let me rephrase that. More consumer friendly than most other cell providers. But it’s still Google.
At least all the pricing and features are straight forward and they don’t lock any features (like Hotspot) behind paywalls.
Every time the ATT sales people bug me at stores I tell them what I’m paying and that I get unlimited hotspot and they usually say “oh, you’re good.”
Add to this that Fi actually allows you to add data only SIMS at no cost.
Yeah, even using a hotspot internationally it’s the same price, with the same data limits.
And with data-SIMs, it’s possible to share that data with a few other devices, still at no extra cost.
Those features are often overlooked when people ask why it’s more expensive than e.g. Mint.
Yeah. I haven’t used mint, but the apps, account management and overall ease of use and transparency is legendary with Google fi. Those things are also easy to overlook. It’s just so easy and doesn’t get in my way when I want to manage something like all other carriers.
It’s too expensive. Visible is cheaper and unlimited everything, even hot spot, and no soft data cap.

I know I know, Reddit post. But there is in fact a soft data cap. The guy who made the post was torrenting and received an email for reaching the data abuse threshold.
If you’re using FI, and you set the device your using the phone hotspot for to metered connection you’re not too terribly likely to reach the data cap on pretty much any of the unlimited fi plans. I do this for work.
lol… 30 terabytes?! Okay. I’m sure even Google Fi has a cap like that. Most people would struggle to even come close to that. It’s 30x the cap of even a home internet provider like Comcast, which usually limits you to 1 terabyte. Most people would have a really hard time hitting even that on their mobile.
The other thing to consider is Visible is cheaper than Google FI too. And most people aren’t going to use anywhere near 30 terabytes.
