  • Verizon will hike prices for its smartwatch plans by 50% starting June 3.
  • Smartwatch data plans now cost $15/month instead of the previous $10 price.
  • If your watch lines include a discount, it will be applied to the new pricing.

Verizon has announced yet another price hike. This time, the carrier is increasing prices for its smartwatch data plans from $10 to $15 per month — a 50% hike that’s taken users by surprise. Don’t forget you must also pay additional taxes on the increased price, just like you were paying on your previous plan.
