Bottom line

On starting price, US Mobile is the cheaper entry point ($17.50/mo vs $40/mo). One is a budget brand (MVNO) that rents a major network, which usually means a lower price with the trade-off of slower speeds when the network is busy. The right pick depends on your data needs, how many lines you have, and coverage at your address, which is where a generic ranking stops being useful.
