Some T-Mobile stores receive dummy units of the T-Mobile myTouch, myTouch Q and LG Doubleplay

Posted on Oct 17, 2011 by MG1

T-Mobile has three new Android handsets scheduled for launch on November 2nd. The T-Mobile myTouch, T-Mobile myTouch Q and the LG Doubleplay are all mid-range models with appropriate specs. The T-Mobile myTouch and myTouch Q are both being marketed at first time smartphone buyers, as we reported. Both models have a "Set-up Wizard" and a "Tips" widget that makes setting up either unit as easy as following directions. While the myTouch has a 3.8 inch screen, a virtual QWERTY and Swype, the myTouch Q offers a smaller 3.5 inch screen and a physical QWERTY keyboard.

FCC: AT&T failed to address how proposed T-Mobile merger will add jobs

FCC: AT&T failed to address how proposed T-Mobile merger will add jobs

Posted on Oct 14, 2011 by MG1

Filed in: T-MobileAT&T

Rick Kaplan, chief of the Federal Communication Commission’s Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, sent a letter to AT&T on Thursday asking the carrier to clarify just how the proposed merger with T-Mobile USA will add jobs in the United States. “Our review of the information currently in our record suggests that AT&T’s responses on this issue remain incomplete,” Kaplan said. The FCC is giving AT&T until October 31st to address fully “all plans, analyses and reports discussing the creation or loss of jobs” if the merger is approved. AT&T must also disclose how many T-Mobile USA jobs will be eliminated and show how the merger will affect employment inside and outside of the United States during...

Samsung Galaxy W to be Exhibit II 4G on T-Mobile

Samsung Galaxy W to be Exhibit II 4G on T-Mobile

Posted on Oct 13, 2011 by MG1

The Samsung Galaxy W has surfaced and looks to be heading to T-Mobile as the Exhibit II 4G. The handset was first revealed back in August, when Samsung unveiled its new naming scheme for its smartphone product lines. The “S” series, as in the Galaxy S, represented its flagship line followed by R, W, M, and Y series in descending order, which marks the Samsung Galaxy W, or Exhibit II 4G, to be a mid-range device.
The Exhibit II 4G, whose name was revealed today by TmoNews, has also been codenamed Ancora in some markets and is expected to feature a 3.7-inch WVGA screen, a 1.4GHz single-core processor, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, and a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera. Those are pretty d...

Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Amaze 4G on sale at T-Mobile

Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Amaze 4G on sale at T-Mobile

Posted on Oct 13, 2011 by MG1

Sure, we knew this day was coming, but now the wait is finally over. Now the main question for T-Mobile customers at the end of their contract is whether to pick up the Samsung Galaxy S II or HTC Amaze 4G. Both handsets are now on sale from the carrier, running $229 and $259, respectively (plus plan, post-rebate, naturally). Thankfully, we've got a full review of the 4.52-inch Galaxy S II magenta edition and a hands-on with the 4.3-inch Amaze 4G, which should help make the deciding a bit easier.

T-Mobile slices the upgrade price of the BlackBerry Bold 9900 starting today

Posted on Oct 13, 2011 by MG1

According to some photographs of T-Mobile pricing documents, the mobile operator is cutting the 2-year upgrade price of the BlackBerry Bold 9900 from $299.99 to $249.99 starting today. The nation's fourth largest carrier had given the handset the highest price out of the three major U.S. carriers offering the model. Following the price cut, T-Mobile's price will match the $249.99 subsidized price Verizon is asking for the CDMA variant of the phone, the BlackBerry Bold 9930. That still is $50 more than the $199.99 that Sprint is charging for the BlackBerry Bold 9930.
The BlackBerry Bold 9900 offers a combination of a physical QWERTY keyboard-considered by many to be the best physical QWERTY e...

T-Mobile sits quietly out of the picture during Apple's event

T-Mobile sits quietly out of the picture during Apple's event

Posted on Oct 05, 2011 by MG1

Filed in: AppleT-Mobile

Poor T-Mobile, they were sadly left behind as Apple announced today that the iPhone 4S will be coming to the top three wireless carriers in the country starting on October 14th. We’ve seen them mock the iPhone on several occasions in various commercial spots, but now they can keep on doing the same thing since they weren’t mentioned once during the entire presentation today.
Still, it begs the question whether or not they’ll be negatively impacted mainly because they’re simply out of the picture when it comes to the latest iPhone model. Of course, we’ve already seen how T-Mobile is trying to lure iPhone users to its grasp, which is evident from the microSIM cards they’re selling for the iPho...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 coming to T-Mobile October 26

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 coming to T-Mobile October 26

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

Some internal T-Mobile documents are indicating their version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be going on sale October 26 (barring any delays). T-Mobile will be joining multiple retailers here in the US who currently offer the popular razor-thin slate.
This is pretty awesome news for the T-Mo faithful, especially given the legal troubles that Samsung and Apple are currently entangled in around the world. Right now, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is seeing injunctions in Australia and Germany. Honestly, consumers living in the United States should probably be feeling a bit fortunate that they are still able to get their hands on this beautiful piece of hardware without any problems. Really, we feel ...

T-Mobile joins Samsung in court fight against Apple

T-Mobile joins Samsung in court fight against Apple

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

According to a recent court filing, T-Mobile has taken sides with Samsung in the company's court battle with Apple. T-Mobile contends that an injunction against the sale of Samsung products in the U.S. would harm the carrier and its customers.
T-Mobile's primary concern is with holiday sales, as it claims that "at this late date, T-Mobile could not find comparable replacement products for the 2011 holiday season." T-Mobile's holiday marketing campaigns prominently feature the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S II smartphone and Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet, both of which are in danger of being banned in the U.S. if Apple is awarded an injunction.
T-Mobile is the second carrier to take sides with Samsung, f...

T-Mobile to launch Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 on October 26th and rollout 6 devices on November 2nd

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

T-Mobile reps have a ton of work ahead of them this month and next. A leaked calendar shows all of the things that employees of the nation's fourth largest carrier have to do in October. The first thing, not even mentioned in any of the leaked documents, is to answer calls from angry customers calling to find out why the carrier is the only one of the top four mobile operators in the U.S. not to offer the Apple iPhone. Earlier Saturday, we showed you Radio Shack's inventory system which displayed versions of the iPhone 5 for Verizon, AT&T and Sprint.

T-Mobile Germany starts prepping for Nokia Windows Phone

T-Mobile Germany starts prepping for Nokia Windows Phone

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

Some marketing materials from T-Mobile Germany have given us a few details on what to expect from Nokia’s first Windows Phone. It’ll be running the recently-released Mango update, have a 3.7-inch convex AMOLED touchscreen, and include a navigation app with 3D rendering and voice control. Most of that we’ve already heard in previous Sea Ray leaks, which suggest the device will also have a 5 megapixel camera, and a chassis roughly equivalent to Nokia’s one and only Meego handset, the N9.

A look at the Android page on T-Mobile's web site reveals a little mistake made by someone in the marketing department at the nation's fourth largest carrier. The phone that is labeled as the HTC Revolution 4G is obviously not that device. Checking out the elements for the page using Google Chrome reveals it to be one of two unannounced LG myTouch models.

T-Mobile supports Samsung in Apple patent battle

T-Mobile supports Samsung in Apple patent battle

Posted on Sep 29, 2011 by MG15

T-Mobile has filed with the federal courts to oppose Apple’s request for a preliminary US injunction on Samsung’s Galaxy products. The move is similar to what Verizon did last week, when it, too, sided with Samsung and filed with the courts to oppose the injunction request, citing possible negative effects to its 4G LTE network deployment. T-Mobile claims that an injunction on Samsung’s Galaxy products in the US would “unnecessarily harm” its business and its customers, especially since it is relying on the Samsung Galaxy S II and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 as two of its major product launches for this holiday season. The carrier further argues that there isn’t enough time to find comparabl...
