You may not be able to buy it from T-Mobile, but the BlackBerry Leap might be worth your consideration if you’re one of the few people who actually likes BB OS10 on an all-touch device. It’s compatible with T-Mo’s band 2 and 4 LTE networks and you can buy it unlocked from ShopBlackBerry.com for $275 in dark grey or white. I’ve reviewed it for ... [read full article]

Although we’re still not 100% on exactly when it’s happening, T-Mobile is going to start selling the Microsoft Lumia 640 very soon. The budget Windows Phone device is expected to cost around $130 (if Cricket pricing is anything to go by) and will feature the latest Windows Phone operating system, complete with Lumia Denim. I’ve been able to spend some ... [read full article]

Last year, I was fortunate enough to attend LG’s G3 launch event to see if the company could come up with a device bold enough and powerful enough to beat its flagship rivals. Sadly, despite having great specs on paper, the overall performance for me [read full article]

Yesterday I let you know that Alcatel OneTouch was ending its promotional pre-order price of $199, with the promise that I’d share the unboxing video with you as soon as it was finished.

One of the most curious aspects of today’s Android market is how Sony hasn’t quite managed to crack it. For the past few years it’s unveiled a series of fantastic phones, and yet – for one reason or another – they don’t catch on. Could it be lack of effort in marketing? Low interest from the major U.S. carriers? Lack of ambition? Perhaps ... [read full article]

I use “phablet” in quotation marks for one reason: While a year or two back, the term could be used for a specific area of the smartphone market, in 2014 that’s not so easy to do. Where there was once a line of size distinction, it’s now blurred. Device screen sizes range from 4.5-inches to 5.7-inches, and many of today’s flagships ... [read full article]

“Never Settle”, a phrase which OnePlus has taken as its vague inspiration for a device that it wants to kill the flagship phones.

Some of you who follow me on Twitter will know I’ve been running a series of retro phone reviews over on PhoneDog’s YouTube channel. Today was one of particular interest to TmoNews readers and T-Mo fans alike. So I though I’d share it with you. Having originally launched in 2002, the T-Mobile Sidekick became of the most instantly-recognizable phones on the market. Its iconic 180-degree rotating display and awesome physical keyboard made it stand out in a ... [read full article]

With Samsung pretty much cleaning up on the Android market, you could be forgiven for ignoring its Korean competitor up until last year. The LG G2 turned heads. Its odd, rear-placed power and volume buttons as well as its super-slim bezels made it something of a milestone for LG. And then the ridiculously huge, curved G Flex ensured no one could ignore the company again. ... [read full article]
