I confused why even possible to raise price. That is change in contract, right? Because price in contract.

So it legal to change contract from one party only? That seem like loophole.

They let you cancel that contract. You’re allowed to leave within a month or something after they change it.

Pretty sure the original contracts have all expired, and these are now month-to-month renewals. IOW, when the current contract expires at the end of the month, it will not be renewed by T-Mobile. They are offering a similar, slightly modified version (at a higher price) if you would like to take them up on it.
