With commercial 5G networks set to go live in the United States next year, carriers and smartphone manufacturers are now gearing up to launch devices which will be able to leverage the next-generation mobile network. Sprint and LG have announced their intention to bring the “1st 5G smartphone in the U.S.” They’re aiming to do that in the first half of next year.

The Essential Phone was the first non-Pixel smartphone to receive the Android 9 Pie update. Google released the update earlier this month and the Pixel handsets were the first to get it in addition to the Essential Phone, the device made by the company founded by the co-founder of Android. It was the unlocked variant that got it first and it’s now being rolled out for the Sprint variant.

We’re sure that many were pretty impressed with what Samsung had in store for us when they officially announced the Galaxy Note 9. If it was good enough to impress you to the point where you would buy it, then you’ll be pleased to learn that the handset is now available for pre-order from carriers or directly through Samsung.

Samsung has officially unveiled the Galaxy Note 9 at an event in New York City. The leaks keep on coming, though. The latest reveals the Sprint Galaxy Note 9 pre-order incentives. Samsung and its partners routinely offer incentives to customers who pre-order its latest flagship devices so it’s not a surprise to see that they’re doing this for the Galaxy Note 9 as well.

Sprint has announced that it’s splitting its unlimited data plan into two tiers with each having its own data allotment and restrictions. The company will continue to sell these as “unlimited” plans even though they can’t be classified as providing a truly unlimited experience for mobile data.

The Samsung Galaxy A6 and A6+ are a pair of mid-range phones that was launched last month. However according to the details provided at launch, the phones seemed to be destined for Europe, Asia, and Latin America with no word on whether it would be finding its way to US markets.

With 5G networks set to be commercialized by next year, it’s only a matter of time before 5G computers are widely available and Intel wants to make sure that it’s there when that happens. The company announced at Computex 2018 today that it has teamed up with Sprint to start selling 5G PCs in the carrier’s stores from 2019. Sprint customers will be able to purchase 5G PCs powered by […]

While we see a lot of products and services that are generally aimed at a younger crowd, it seems that Sprint has decided to go the other direction with the launch of the company’s new Unlimited 55+ plan. In case it wasn’t already obvious, this is a phone plan aimed at those who are 55 and older.

Towards the end of last year and early this year, we saw a bunch of new laptops launched that were powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chipset. We’re talking about devices such as the ASUS NovaGo, the HP Envy x2, and the Lenovo Miix 630. One of the advertised features of such computers is being able to go online anywhere at anytime.

After years of will they, won’t they, T-Mobile and Sprint today officially announced that they’re going to merge. The third and fourth largest mobile carriers in the United States have decided to join forces and compete in this very competitive mobile market. The two companies have officially announced their intention to merge today but the deal is subject to approval from regulators and shareholders.

T-Mobile and Sprint have been involved in merger talks for the past few years but a deal was never reached. The talks always fell through due to one reason or another and yet not too long ago, it was reported that the companies were talking about a merger yet again. Things appear to be quite far along already because a new report suggests that this $26 billion deal might be […]

Sprint subscribers have had access to a fully integrated Google Voice experience since 2011 as a result of a partnership between the two companies. It enabled subscribers to make calls with their Sprint number and get access to Google Voice features such as voicemail transcription, call forwarding to multiple numbers, call recording, and more. Even after Google relaunched Voice in 2017 the integration continued to work but it has now […]

A will they, won’t they story if there ever was one in the telecom industry. According to a new report, T-Mobile and Sprint have once again started talks related to a possible merger. This is the third time in four years that the third and fourth largest mobile carriers in the United States respectively are mulling a possible merger. The latest round has been started merely five months after the […]

The LG V30 received its Android 8.0 Oreo update on Verizon over a week ago and now Sprint has started rolling out said update on its network. Verizon released Android 8.0 Oreo for the LG V30 on March 11th and Sprint is doing that today. The carrier is rolling out the update over-the-air so users should expect to get an update notification on their handsets in the near future.
