Phone plan research help? (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for a cheap plan for two unlocked phones that I already have. I'd like a plan that has 5-10 gigs per line, works with T-Mobile or Verizon, and available in Ohio.

Once upon a time, there was a lovely website that would easily and clearly compare cell phone plans from any provider who had service in a given area. It has since been filled with ads, featured partners and compares only introductory rates.

Is there another site that compiles and compares real world information on data plans and stuff? Do I have to just poke around on multiple different websites and compile information myself?

As someone who A/B tested mint and T-Mobile. They are virtually the same (mint is owned by T-Mobile) but in the middle of no where Kansas T-Mobile had full data but mint only had voice/text. I'm 98% sure that's because it was a dead zone for T-Mobile so you defaulted to roaming on a locally owned tower. So keep that in mind if you travel a lot to sparsely populated areas.

We decided to stick with T-Mobile in the end just because both the W and I got big pay bumps but if we hadn't I would have strongly considered switching.
