Launched nearly a year ago, Google’s cellphone service, Project Fi, required an invitation in order to use it. Recently, Google announced that they are finally ready to make Project Fi available to most Americans which were previously not allowed to use the service. Now, anyone in the United States can sign up for the simpler, data-centric wireless service without needing an invitation. So if you’re tired of your existing carrier charging more for your data usage than you think is necessary, there is now a new option in the market.

Project Fi runs on either T-Mobile or Sprint networks depending on which one offers better reception in a given area. Google promises to deliver fast wireless service with the flexibility to use it wherever you want (even internationally). Most customers that use the Fi service are more likely to travel and there are 120+ countries that support the service. Google also offers WiFi Assistant, a tool that automatically connects to high-quality hotspots and helps secure a connection. Other perks of using this service include an application for your data usage, even indicating when you may get a refund back for unused data, and customer support with quick response times. To use the service, customers are responsible for paying a base fee of $20 per month and then an additional $10 per GB of data. If you overpay for your data in a given month, Fi simply refunds you the difference.

In order to use Project Fi, you will need a Fi friendly smartphone (the Nexus 5X, 6, or 6P) or tablet (the Nexus 9, newer iPads, or the Galaxy Tab S) for it to work. If you don’t already have one of those devices, Google is sweetening the deal by discounting the Nexus 5X to as low as $199 (which is $150 off of its current retail price) if you purchase the device at the same time you activate the Fi service. That sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me if you’re in the market for a mid-range Android phone. Project Fi is still in early stages so there are still improvements to be made but Google is eager to welcome the next wave of customers and growing and improving together.
