At launch, subscribers can select a $99.99 annual eero Plus plan that includes 10 GB of backup data or a $199.99 eero Plus 100 plan with 100 GB of data. Both plans provide discounted pricing on the device at the time of purchase.
Eero says the device works with several major carriers, including AT&T and Verizon, and uses a built-in multi-carrier eSIM to connect to the best available network. The company plans to release a 5G version of the eero Signal for $199.99 later this year and extend support to eero Business plan customers.
