On the heels of T-Mobile’s announcement that you can now stream 100 different services via Binge On and Music Freedom without them counting against your data, the carrier is now giving you a chance to get a connected tablet at an amazing price.

Starting tomorrow, if you purchase a flagship smartphone from either Apple, Samsung, or LG, you can also grab a tablet from the same brand at 50 percent off or a discount of $200, whichever is greater.

For phones, you have your choice of any iPhone, Samsung’s Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge Plus, S7, S7 Edge, Note 4, or Note 5, and LG’s V10.

If you purchase an iPhone, you’ll get $200 off any iPad. A few examples are the 12.9-inch iPad Pro 128GB for $880 (reg $1080), 9.7-inch iPad Pro 128GB for $680 (reg $880), iPad Air 2 64GB for $430 (reg $630), or the iPad Mini 4 64GB for $430 (reg $630).

Choose a Samsung phone and get the Galaxy Tab A 8.0 for $160 (reg. $320) or the Tab S2 for $450 (reg $650). Lastly, if you choose the LG V10, you can grab the G Pad F 8.0 for only $120 (reg $240).

This is a very good deal, but there are a few caveats. The first is that you’ll need to sign up for the equipment installment plan (EIP), which means you will pay off both devices over 24 monthly payments. Also, in order to get the unlimited data streaming from the Binge On service on your tablet, you’ll need to sign up for the 6GB per month plan, which costs $35 a month. Lastly, you won’t receive your savings right away. It’ll come in the form of a prepaid card that will take up to eight weeks to arrive in the mail.

If you’re not already a customer of T-Mobile and need a little more enticement, the carrier also announced a new family plan in which you can grab four lines with unlimited talk, text, and up to 10GB of LTE data per line (no sharing) for only $35 per month. You can also opt for the unlimited plan, which will run $50 per month per line for the same family of four.

These deals will be offered for a limited time, but T-Mobile didn’t specify an end date. They are available at T-Mobile stores, authorized dealers, 1-800-T-Mobile, and through T-Mobile Care. Later in April, they will be available on T-Mobile.com.

Don’t buy a Galaxy S24 Ultra or iPhone 15 Pro Max. Do this instead

“Do I need all that?” That’s the question on the mind of shoppers before they splurge a now-standard $1,000 asking price for a top-tier phone in 2024. Ideally, that dilemma should be there. The likes of Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro Max have won laurels for a handful of standout features they offer. But you might not need those standout features at all.

I’ve been on that road, and more frequently than I have the temerity to admit. For some reason, regret comes as part of the $1,200 flagship parcel. That's unless your phone is a part of your creative or work process, or you just don’t care and only want the latest and greatest for the vanity of it. A segment like that certainly exists, but that affluent user base doesn’t dictate the journey of a product.

I’m a lifelong iPhone user. Here’s what I think about the Samsung Galaxy S24

Samsung and Apple typically release new smartphones at different times of the year. Samsung usually does it early in the year, while Apple waits until the fall ahead of the holiday shopping season. As always, Apple tends to release new iPhones that outdo the ones Samsung released earlier, and then when the calendar changes, Samsung comes back with something to better compete with Apple, and so forth.

Samsung has recently announced its Galaxy S24 series, which has sparked the curiosity of iPhone owners like myself. Many of us are currently exploring the features of these phones and seeing which ones aren't available on our iPhones, myself included. Some are entirely new, while others have been introduced on previous Samsung Galaxy S models. Although many seem promising, some may not be as appealing to iPhone users. Here are a few of the Galaxy S24 features I like — and a few I don't.

You won’t believe how I improved my phone’s battery life

Sorry for using that tired old clickbait headline, but in a roundabout way, it’s true. You genuinely won’t believe that I’m about to tell you something so headbangingly obvious about smartphone batteries.
