With the new changes, the company says there is no longer a cap on how much wireless high-speed data you can use in a month. The previous Unlimited Elite plan allowed for 100 GB of high-speed data every month before you were at risk of having your data slowed if you were in an area where the network was “busy.” 

The older Unlimited Elite plan also capped mobile video streams to HD resolution and allowed for 30GB of high-speed hotspot data. As mentioned, the new plan ups the mobile video streaming to allow for watching in 4K and now allows for 40GB per month of high-speed hotspot data.

The new features will be automatically added to existing Unlimited Elite subscribers, with AT&T stressing that there will be no changes in monthly pricing. 

The switch will start going into effect on Wednesday, July 14. The company is not, however, making any adjustments to its other unlimited wireless plans, known as Unlimited Extra and Unlimited Starter.

AT&T’s Unlimited Elite upgrade comes amid increased competition between the major wireless carriers for premium unlimited subscribers. In February T-Mobile updated its top plan, now called Magenta Max, to allow for 4K video streaming and removed its high-speed data caps. The carrier also boosted the amount of high-speed mobile hotspot data it allowed to 40GB in a month.
