Typically, the cheapest Comcast Xfinity internet plan is its 50 Mbps plan. You'll see in the table above that it costs $20 a month in the Western US, and that rings true for pretty much anywhere you can get Xfinity.
Still, you might be surprised that its fastest plan, Gigabit or Gigabit Extra, tends to offer the best price for the speed you get.
So while it might be easy to pinpoint which internet package has the lowest cost per month, finding the best bang for your buck is another story. But if you're looking to save as much money as possible, Xfinity has internet plans ranging from $20–$50 per month.
Xfinity internet prices depend on where you live, but if you dig deep enough, you’ll find some high-value plans that won't have you overpaying for extra speed. Let's dig into the pricing, internet download speeds, and price per Mbps for Xfinity internet plans available across the US.

Is Xfinity internet good?
Xfinity is one of the best known internet service providers (ISPs) in the US, and despite getting a lot of flak for its lackluster customer service, it provides pretty reliable and fast service.
We've subscribed to Xfinity internet for several years now, and for the most part haven't had any trouble with our internet speeds or WiFi. On top of that, Xfinity internet prices tend to start out pretty low—and you might get a friendly service rep to offer you that promotional price again when your contract is about to expire. (This happened to us once.)
But this internet provider also comes with some downsides (just like any ISP): The price you pay depends a lot on where you live, which can make selecting the cheapest plan confusing. Its customer service can make you want to pull your hair out. And Xfinity still caps your data at 1.2 TB—probably not a deal-breaker for most of us, but power users, beware.
Pros
Steady download speeds
Low promotional prices
Available almost everywhere 
Cons
No consistent pricing
Data capped at 1.2 TB
Contracts required Xfinity internet deals
On the lookout for other ways to save money on your Xfinity internet bill? These deals might help—plus we have more Comcast bill-wrangling tips to try.
Don't miss these freebies
Finding a good deal isn't the only way to save on Xfinity internet. You can also grab its Flex 4K streaming TV box for free and get access to Peacock Premium, no extra cash required.
This works even if you don't grab Xfinity's cable TV service. All you need to do is link your Xfinity account on the Peacock website or tell your Xfinity remote to "Show me Peacock."
Xfinity internet + mobile + streaming = big savings
When you add an Xfinity Mobile plan, you can get Xfinity Internet + streaming for only $30 a month.
Plus, this deal includes internet equipment, a 2-year price guarantee and doesn't require a contract.
Cheapest Xfinity plan: Northeastern US
For those looking to pay the lowest price without worrying about what download speed they get, the Xfinity Performance Pro plan is the cheapest in the Northeastern US.
Here’s a look at the promotional prices Xfinity charges if you live in the Northeastern US.

Cheapest plan in the Northeast
Data effective 02/17/2022. Offers and availability vary by location and are subject to change.
We recommend most families start with at least 100 Mbps download speeds, and although Xfinity's Performance plan ticks that box, we don't love the price. For about $84 a month, this is on the higher end of a lot of 100 Mbps plans we've seen.
But don't forget about the Performance Pro plan either. At just under $40 a month, this plan offers 300 Mbps download speeds. That’s still an exceptional deal, and those speeds are perfect for keeping even a larger family connected while everyone streams Netflix or games on the Xbox (no one wants slow WiFi).
The biggest downside is that your price almost doubles after the promo period ends. Performance Pro goes up to $98.95 a month after two years.
If you start breaking down the cost per Mbps, you’ll quickly find that Xfinity's slowest plan in the Northeast, Performance Starter, is the most expensive. The Gigabit plan, on the other hand, is the cheapest price per Mbps.

Our recommended cheap Xfinity internet plan: Performance Pro
The promotional price Xfinity's charging for its 300 Mbps plan is just too good to pass up. It costs almost half as much per Mbps as the Performance plan. And those download speeds should cover you even if you run a home office while your kiddos or partner enjoy some game time or stream Paw Patrol.
If you want to avoid the price hike after a year, we advise calling Xfinity just before your second year is up to see if the representative can offer you any new deals.

Cheapest Xfinity plan: Central US
Xfinity’s Connect is clearly the cheapest option in the Central US if you just want to pay the lowest price and don’t care for that much internet speed.
Here’s a list of the promotional prices you can expect for Comcast internet packages.

Our top pick: Central US

However, we’ll caution you that the Connect plan’s 50 Mbps download speeds probably won’t cut it if you need to work from home or share your internet with more than one person. The more people and devices that use your internet, the more download speed you need.
That's why the Connect More plan with 100 Mbps is our pick for the Xfinity plan with the best value here. Download speeds of 100 Mbps are a great place to start for most families and should support a few people streaming and gaming at the same time.
One thing to note: Your price for either of these plans goes up after your first year. The cost of Connect rises to $59 a month, and the cost of Connect More rises to $79 a month.
Take a look at the cost per Mbps, though, and you’ll see that the Connect and Connect More plans are actually the most costly.

The Gigabit Extra plan, on the other hand, offers the most value on a cost-per-Mbps basis. And its 1,200 Mbps speeds can keep a large family connected, plus keep your home security system, smart home hubs, and other devices online too.
But keep in mind that the Gigabit Extra plan requires a one-year contract, and it's the most costly plan out of all those Xfinity offers in the Central US. (And that price goes up to $100 a month during your second year.) If you don't need that much download speed, you might be better off grabbing a slower plan at a lower monthly cost.
Our recommended cheap Xfinity internet plan: Connect More
The promo price for the Connect More plan won't ring your budget dry. Plus, the 100 Mbps download speed is a great starting point for two or three internet users.
Just be aware that your monthly price goes up to $79 a month after one year.

Cheapest Xfinity plan: Western US
Xfinity’s Connect plan is the cheapest option in the Western US when you look at how much you’d pay per month.
Here’s a look at the promotional Comcast Xfinity internet prices you can expect in the western US.

The Connect plan comes with up to 50 Mbps download speeds, which is fast enough to keep one to two people comfortably streaming and gaming to their heart’s content. But we wouldn't recommend it for more people—even if you stream only on the weekends.
We'd point to the Connect More or Fast plans as better deals for most families since you get up to 100 or 300 Mbps download speeds. That's enough to support at least a few people and a handful of devices all using the Xfinity WiFi at the same time.
One thing to note about Xfinity internet plans is your price goes up after one year. With Connect, you'll pay $44.99 a month after a year, then $60.00 a month after two years.
But when you look at each plan’s cost per Mbps, the Connect plan stacks up as the most expensive. On the other hand, all of Xfinity’s internet plans for the West cost you less than 50 cents per Mbps.
The best value of them all is the Gigabit plan, which costs you less than 10 cents per Mbps.

Our recommended cheap Xfinity internet plan: Fast
Of course, if you’d rather not see your monthly bill creep close to or over $100 a month, the Fast plan rings at about $50 a month and comes with a low cost per Mbps. Plus it comes with decent download speeds of up to 300 Mbps too.

How much is Xfinity internet without a contract?
You can choose to get rid of your 1- or 2-year contract with some Xfinity internet plans—but it'll cost you a bit extra. Still, if you know you're going to move within the next year or two, the higher monthly price might be better than paying an early termination fee.
Here's a quick look at Xfinity internet plan prices with and without a contract for the Western US:

How can I get cheap Comcast Xfinity internet?
You might be able to get a cheaper Comcast Xfinity internet plan by following these steps:
- Get an Xfinity internet-only plan with no TV package.
- Decide what speed you need and choose a plan that offers the closest download speeds.
- Don't go over the 1.2 TB data cap—extra or unlimited data costs more with Xfinity.
- Don't rent the xFi Gateway modem-router combo and buy your own modem and router instead.
- Call in and see if you can negotiate your monthly cost even if you're already an Xfinity customer.
What's the best Xfinity deal?

How fast is Comcast Xfinity $10 internet?
Comcast's $10 a month Internet Essentials plan comes with 50 Mbps download speeds and 10 Mbps upload speeds.
Does Comcast have any deals for existing customers?
Comcast Xfinity offers a bunch of deals for new customers, and you might be able to negotiate one of those deals even if you're an existing customer. We recommend having an Xfinity rep call you so you can talk details, or pop into your local Xfinity store for some face-to-face time.
P.S. You can request a call from Xfinity through its app.
How can I get a better deal with Comcast?
We've had the best luck getting a better deal with Comcast by calling a representative. Surprisingly, the first time this happened we called about a technical issue with our router, and the rep noted that we could switch our plan up a bit to get a better deal.
Ideally you'll want to call a month or two before your price goes up, and you can request a call from and Xfinity rep through the Xfinity app.
