- Device Farm offers two pricing models: Paying **per device minute** is useful for small usage levels or for situations where it‘s hard to predict usage amount. **Unmetered plans** are useful in situations where active usage is expected from the beginning. - Device Farm offers two pricing models: Paying **per device minute** is useful for small usage levels or for situations where it‘s hard to predict usage amount. **Unmetered plans** are useful in situations where active usage is expected from the beginning.
- To minimize waiting time for device availability, one approach is to create several device pools with different devices, then randomly choose one of the unused device pools on every run.
