NTT Docomo announced a "Data Increase Trial Campaign" to begin on 1 August 2026. The promotion raises the monthly data allowance for its ahamo plan from 30 GB to 40 GB and expands the docomo mini tiers, moving the 4 GB tier to 6 GB and the 10 GB tier to 12 GB. The increase is applied automatically to both new and existing subscribers without a separate sign‑up, and the campaign has no fixed end date; usage will revert to the original limits when the subscription ends.

Docomo said the trial is intended to observe how larger data caps affect user behavior and to collect feedback through surveys, using the insights to shape future services. The move follows recent competitive pricing actions by rival carriers UQ mobile and Y!mobile, suggesting a strategic effort to strengthen its sub‑brand offerings.
