T-Mobile is extending Simple Global, the scheme that pretends to offer you free unlimited data when travelling, to 210 countries – up from the previous 140.
We say ‘pretends’ as what you actually get free of charge is 2G data, which is pretty much unusable. But it will now offer a chargeable option for LTE data …
Right on the heels of the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, T-Mobile’s LG G6 is now receiving the Android 8.0 Oreo update.
Oreo has been slowly rolling out to various Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge variants over the last several months, and now it’s T-Mobile’s turn. But this update involves more than just a firmware update, it also includes support for RCS Universal Profile 1.0, allowing for richer communications between carriers.
Google’s Android One program had a slow start, but this year we’ve seen a bunch of new Android One models launch in various markets around the world. Now, it seems like LG is about to jump on board with a new variant of its previously-announced LG Q7.
After its unveiling earlier this month, pre-orders for LG’s latest flagship, the G7 ThinQ, have now officially opened up at multiple US carriers. Here’s what you need to know.
Android’s monthly security updates have done a great job in helping keep devices secure from the plethora of bugs that pop up from time to time. However, some are pretty slow about rolling them out. Today, T-Mobile and Samsung are rolling out May’s security patch to some devices.
T-Mobile and Sprint officially confirmed today that they will be joining forces to become a single carrier, according to a press release from the new combined company.

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 8 is shaping up to be a very fine phone, but it’s also an extremely expensive phone. The device costs a whopping $930 if purchased outright, and while it is one of the most powerful Android smartphones of the year, that’s still an awfully large chunk of change to part with for a new gadget. Thankfully, T-Mobile is making the Note 8 a lot more affordable with its latest promotion.

Over the past few days, there’s been a heap of leaks and rumors regarding T-Mobile’s carrier-exclusive REVVL T1 smartphone. Following hands-on photos that made an appearance yesterday afternoon, T-Mobile has officially announced the phone a day ahead of its launch.
A few days ago, Evan Blass took to Twitter to outline all of the specifications for the upcoming T-Mobile REVVL T1 smartphone. These specifications and previous renders for the phone already gave us a pretty good idea of what to expect from the handset, but we now have an even better look at it thanks to new hands-on photos.
Back in May, we reported that T-Mobile was working on its first carrier-exclusive phone with the REVVL T1. We had a pretty good idea for everything the REVVL would come equipped with, but thanks to yet another leak, we now have pricing and availability info for the handset.
We see exclusive devices on every carrier, but it’s been a little while since US carriers have experimented with their own, self-branded smartphones. A few months ago we heard about the T-Mobile REVVL and today, we’re getting details on another smartphone the ‘Uncarrier’ is developing — the T-Mobile Alchemy.
One of T-Mobile’s biggest weaknesses over the years has been its performance inside buildings. The “un-carrier” is looking to change that, though, with the addition of 600MHz spectrum that it has been talking about for a while. Recently, T-Mobile’s CTO confirmed that two major Android OEMs will offer support for that spectrum in upcoming devices.
