If you need the higher speed, then just pay for it.
Agreed. I imagine T-Mo will match Google Fi's faster data with fee but likely not before I leave I'd rather not switch - but for sig faster speed it is worth paying a few bucks a month. Remember with T-Mo you actually pay for up to (as in up to 3GB). If you don't use it, you still paid for it. With Google you pay for what you use. So in actuality (in my case) I'll be lowering my bill AND getting faster internet internationally.

.15 Mbps up/down. Pretty slow according to that - but definitely significantly faster than 2G in S Korea a few days prior. I can use Google Maps with ease and even surf the web.
