- It includes five phone lines and no access fees.
- The lines start with unlimited talk and text, as well as 100MB of shared 4G LTE data for free.
- Each line can pay $65 per month for unlimited data.

- The wireless service also makes it so that customers will automatically connect to Comcast Wi-Fi hot spots.
- These options are available to all of the lines so that families can mix and match plans based on their data needs.
Comcast Xfinity Mobile isn't available yet, but the company says it will launch in the near future. When it does, customers will be able to use smartphones from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL ), Samsung Electronics Co Ltd (OTCMKTS: SSNLF ) and LG on the wireless service.
