Before I switched from Verizon, the most I used was 60gb in a month, broke my local stores record for data used on unlimited. I don't have a full month on T-Mobile yet but I'm hoping to top that. :D

I finally hit over 75GB of data usage with no wifi. This is the most data I have ever used on a phone in my life, and I'm glad I got to do it with a Nexus 5:victory:

150mb/month :(

I would use more but there's basically no good plans in Australia under $25/month. I have WiFi at work & home so it's not too bad.

I'm always around 100gb a month on sprint. When I'm not working or at school I'm constantly tethering my PC watching how I met your mother and playing Minecraft. A few times I'm doing homework too :p

There is WiFI pretty much everywhere I go, so not much, but if I had an unlimited data plan I would probably never use WiFi. Over WiFi, I'll use maybe 3-4 gigs a month.

I was using ~2GB/mo with VZW, have only had Tmo for a couple weeks and have so far used about 4GB.

I still don't abuse it on purpose, and still use WiFi when available. Abusing the network in the name of fun is kind of stupid, and it just going to get them to start imposing restrictions.

My data is almost all streaming music from slacker/google.

mobiledata caps at 500mb so I stay below that each month, bandwidth management in chrome sure helps here, got a pretty good wifi both at home and work so that helps, on wifi i've used 9gb already this month :)

    How many speed tests do you do a day to get to 3 GB of usage?

    Well that seems stupid
    Yup, and your post just oozes of intelligence.

    So the past 30 days I have been really enjoying my unlimited data plan. I finally hit over 75GB of data usage and the journey has been awesome for me. It's so much fun having an Unlimited Everything T-Mobile Data Plan with blazing fast 4G LTE Speeds and never using WIFI :victory: By the end of 2014 I want to try to hit over 100GB of data usage in 1 month ;) I know it's alot of data but I know there are other data hungry Nexus 5 users out there.
    Then I was wondering how much data everybody else has used so far.:confused:
    My top 5 apps that are data hogs are YouTube, Tethering, Speedtest, Soundcloud, and Dropbox.

    So my fellow Nexus 5 users, how much data do you use on a monthly basis? And also what top 3 to 5 apps do you use the most data on? :cool:

    Edit: Thanks for the feedback you guys. Nice to see some of you really getting your money's worth for the data you are paying for. Hopefully one day cell phone providers will go back to just leaving data unlimited that way we don't have to think about going over limits as overage charges or getting throttled is no fun. For those not using data to save money on your cell phone plan I applaud your ability to control your data usage on a regular basis.
    As for me and others in here who use a lot of data I hope you guys are enjoying your unlimited data plans. Feels great not having to use wifi anymore especially with blazing fast LTE data speeds.

    These are the top LTE speeds I have been able to get in Los Angeles so far so that is part of the reason why I use so much data. And yes I do a lot of speedtest on a regular basis as it turns me on in a technological way to see it perform so well. :victory:
