We’ve been informed by our ever-reliable group of sources that T-Mobile’s popular 4 for $100 (2.5GB per line) offer and the 2 for $100 (unlimited 4G LTE data) promotion are coming to an end. Our favorite carrier is planning to pull the promotion off the market on June 27th. In other words, that will be the last day you’ll be able to order either of the plans.

When we were told that T-Mobile was about to increase tethering allowances for some of its customers, our source told us that grandfathered users wouldn’t be included.

Thankfully, it turns out that’s not … [read full article]
We’ve been informed by a couple of our sources that T-Mobile has something big planned for the small LG G Pad tablet this month, just in time for Father’s Day. T-Mobile told its employees a few days back that the G Pad F 8.0 will launch on June 17th. What it hasn’t shared in the online community (as far as we know) … [read full article]
In his latest vlog published just a few hours ago, John Legere pleads with American wireless consumers not to let AT&T and Verizon (Dumb and Dumber) get in the way of a competitive low-band spectrum auction.

UPDATE: We got an email yesterday from T-Mobile to confirm that this is in fact just part of the story. T-Mo is the first carrier in the world which will support Continuity over a cellular network. So you can leave your phone anywhere, and still receive and send SMS messages or make/receive phone calls. Sweet deal.

Fairly recently, T-Mobile announced that the Android 5.0 update for its LG G3 was available to download. Or at least, the carrier would begin a staggered rollout. It didn’t last long though. T-Mo stopped the rollout pretty soon afterwards. Thankfully, it’s about to begin again (or is already beginning). Des Smith announced on Twitter just a short while ago that T-Mobile has approved … [read full article]
