AT&T today announced the ZTE Mobley, a mobile hotspot for cars that connects via the OBD-II port.
The Mobley is compatible with most cars model year 1996 and later and turns on automatically whenever the car is on. It can support up to five connected devices in the car via WiFi.
The Mobley costs $100 with no commitment, and is also available for $0 down with a two-year commitment. AT&T says it can be added to Mobile Share Value plans for a $10 monthly access charge. Data Connect plans are available, too, which cost $20 for 1GB of LTE 4G data or $30 for 3GB.
The Mobley is a simple hotspot and doesn’t offer advanced support functions, such as roadside assistance, like those available via the Verizon Hum.
