Whenever I saw product shots of HTC’s Sensation 4G smartphone, which launches today on T-Mobile, I just didn’t get it. How could a phone this promising, with its dual-core processor and qHD display, look so weird?
That attitude changed as soon as I opened the box. The phone whose striped back panel looks looked like a lame attempt at …
If you converse with folks over age of 50, chances are you’ve heard the following argument at least once: What do I need a smartphone for?
On Saturday, in honor of Father’s Day, T-Mobile will make it really easy to come up with an answer. For one day, the wireless carrier will offer one year of free data to anyone who signs up for a …
T-Mobile’s leaked phone roadmap for 2011 has plenty of good news for Android and Blackberry fans, but no mention of Windows Phones or the iPhone.
You can check out the entire roadmap at This is My Next, including a bunch of unremarkable feature phones and dumbphones. Here are the hightlights:
June will likely bring HTC’s Sensation …
Okay, it’s true. We mentioned that T-Mobile unofficially reintroduced Wi-Fi calling along with a whole host of other features not too long ago. It’s also been confirmed by a T-Mobile rep, so enjoy and breathe with relief.
What’s the word?
T-Mobile is excited to expand our Wi-Fi Calling feature, a unique and valuable service

I should know better than to report on analyst predictions about the next iPhone — they’re often wrong — but the latest from Jefferies & Company analyst Peter Misek is irresistible.
Misek said in a research note that the iPhone 5 will actually be called the iPhone 4S, suggesting that it’ll be a minor upgrade similar to the iPhone …
Call it a win-win for T-Mobile, as Reuters is reporting that AT&T may have promised to slide T-Mo a cool $6 billion if the $39 billion mega-merger announced earlier this year doesn’t make it past regulatory approval.
Reuters quotes “two sources who asked not to be named,” so take this information with a spoonful of skeptic syrup if …
The cat’s out of the bag!
Screenshots of some internal T-Mobile documents released by TMoNews show the return of unlimited Wi-Fi. As of today, T-Mobile customers can make phone calls over Wi-Fi without using minutes from their plans. While it’s not a new feature, it’s only a free feature for those with Even More, Even More Plus …
BGR.com has what it claims to be photos of a prototype iPhone running on T-Mobile’s network. It looks like a standard—albeit white—iPhone 4 model, which BGR asserts may just be for “testing the new T-Mobile-friendly radio with its current iPhone 4 hardware, possibly in preparation for integration in a future device.”

I’m not big on this idea of selling tablets through wireless carriers, so when I heard the tablet would cost $750 unless purchased with a two-year service agreement, I didn’t have high hopes for it.
As it turns out, I actually like this tablet …
It’s begun, whoop-dee-doo. Yesterday, AT&T submitted its paperwork to the FCC for approval. That merger, you know the one that conglomerates AT&T and T-Mobile as a giant telecom monopoly, has finally kicked off.
The uber-long behemoth of a document, at 381 pages long, documents AT&T’s case for acquiring T-Mobile USA from Deutsche …
Not content with playing home to gazillions of your family barbecue photos or a megatrillion updates about cats, Facebook is branching out and taking on yet another aspect of social networking: old-fashioned voice calls.
The hitherto humble little Facebook chat window, which lurks unobtrusively at the bottom of your Facebook wall, now …
T-Mobile is angling for some new subscribers with a limited-time, $80-per-month service plan that includes unlimited voice minutes, unlimited text messages, and unlimited web surfing with a two-year contract.
Web usage is good for up to two gigabytes at normal data speeds—those going over two gigabytes “will still have access to …
