Back during MWC 2014, Samsung unveiled Galaxy Gifts. Described as a way for Galaxy S5 owners to receive free premium content, the total value of content included in the package was over $500. Whether Galaxy S5 owners appreciated the freebies lends itself to a subjective answer, but even so, they were still freebies. Sony will look to do the same with its own set of freebies destined for Xperia Z1, Z1s, and Z2 owners.

Here is what’s included in the package:

  • Garmin, Full Suite
  • Full version of OfficeSuite Pro
  • 50GB of Box storage until the end of time
  • Three-month subscription to Evernote Premium
  • Three-month 1TB Bitcasa storage
  • 10 Xperia themes
  • One-month subscription to Social Live Premium
  • Three additional games and apps

Sony implied that not all of these services will roll out to Z1 and Z1s owners, though Z2 owners can benefit from all of the offered services. According to Sony, it made sure that “many” of these services would be available for Z1 and Z1s owners. If you own any of the three mentioned Xperia handsets, you have until July 31 to take advantage of the free services, which are available through the Xperia Lounge app. The Social Live Premium offer, specifically, will be available from June 1 – 30.

AT&T just made it a lot easier to upgrade your phone
AT&T Storefront with logo.

Do you want to upgrade your phone more than once a year? What about three times a year? Are you on AT&T? If you answered yes to those questions, then AT&T’s new “Next Up Anytime” early upgrade program is made for you. With this add-on, you’ll be able to upgrade your phone three times a year for just $10 extra every month. It will be available starting July 16.

Currently, AT&T has its “Next Up” add-on, which has been available for the past several years. This program costs $6 extra per month and lets you upgrade by trading in your existing phone after at least half of it is paid off. But the new Next Up Anytime option gives you some more flexibility.

The Nokia 3210 is the worst phone I’ve used in 2024

Where do I even start with the Nokia 3210? Not the original, which was one of the coolest phones to own back in a time when Star Wars: Episode 1 -- The Phantom Menace wasn’t even a thing, but the latest 2024 reissue that has come along to save us all from digital overload, the horror of social media, and the endless distraction that is the modern smartphone.

Except behind this facade of marketing-friendly do-goodery hides a weapon of torture, a device so foul that I’d rather sit through multiple showings of Jar Jar Binks and the gang hopelessly trying to bring back the magic of A New Hope than use it.
The Nokia 3210 really is that bad
