For the 12‑month column we take a full year of the published monthly lease, add the install price, and include any set‑up fee. If a company doesn't list its install price, the cell uses MADD's typical range (marked *); if it publishes nothing, the cell states that. A phone quote means the price is given to you when you call. For a rough guide, MADD's overall estimate runs $60 to $80 monthly and $70 to $150 to install, or about $790 to $1,110 over 12 months ($720 to $960 with a free install).
