Last-minute Christmas shoppers can once again BOGO Samsung Galaxy phones at T-Mobile

Never to be outdone by AT&T, T-Mobile follows up its recent DIRECTV Now promotion and One Plus add-on upgrades with another BOGO deal of its own. As straightforward and advantageous as always, this lets you score a free Samsung Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, S6, S6 Edge, Edge+, Note 5 or J7 upon purchasing a Galaxy phone of equal or greater value.

You just need to activate two separate T-Mobile One lines of service, and get at least one of the Android devices on an eligible Equipment Installment Plan. After taking care of any down payment (which you’ll also be credited for), a mail-in rebate in the form of a prepaid MasterCard card will be promptly sent your way.

It’s that easy, and if you hurry, you can procure a pair of awesome tech Christmas gifts for a super-low combined price right at the eleventh hour. Oh, yeah, and the “Un-Carrier” still offers to cover your remaining device payments and early termination fees with the competition (up to $650 per line) if you choose to switch networks.

Last but not least, the Samsung Galaxy On5 continues to cost $0 down and $0 a month with a T-Mobile One “plan.” And still, John Legere insists there’s something even cooler around the corner.

Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) renders, 360-degree video and key specs divulged

As always, Samsung likes to carefully plan ahead when it comes to both high and mid-end smartphone releases, cooking up plenty of 2017 choices especially for budget-minded mobile device consumers uninterested in the Galaxy S8.

Along with at least three new premium-looking but non-flagship A-series phones, and a modest J3 Emerge Sprint will reportedly carry shortly after the holidays, it shouldn’t come as a big surprise that a Galaxy J7 (2017) is also decidedly around the corner.

This middling 5.5-incher’s predecessor only saw daylight back in spring of 2016, so it’s entirely possible we’ll have to wait until March or even April for a formal introduction here. But we already know almost everything about it, starting with incremental updates in the screen resolution, processing power and RAM departments.

Yes, the 2017 edition of the Samsung Galaxy J7 shall sport a Full HD, not just HD, 5.5-inch display, 3GB random-access memory, and unspecified but likely Exynos 7870 and Snapdragon 617-beating octa-core SoC.

Android 7.0 Nougat will purportedly run the software show instead of the aging Marshmallow variant, with average features like 13 and 5MP cameras, 16GB internal storage and micro-USB connectivity probably staying in place. There’s no fingerprint reader in tow either, but at least today’s leaked renders and 360-degree CAD video hint at a slightly snazzier design, metallic rear shooter strip and all.

T-Mobile Black Friday 2016 deals tipped to include free LG G5 and iPad mini 4

Flipkart spills the beans on upcoming sub-$250 Samsung Galaxy On8

No longer able (or willing) to keep up with Samsung’s constantly ballooning, increasingly convoluted mid-range smartphone family? That’s where we come in, helping you understand the place of the soon-to-be-launched Galaxy On8, for instance, on both the general Android totem pope and within the Galaxy food chain.While the name suggests this India-only, Flipkart-exclusive 5.5-incher has some sort of an edge over the recently released China-targeted Galaxy On7 (2016), the fact of the matter is ...

T-Mobile drops mic on rival carriers with free Galaxy phones for every family member

The “Uncarrier” is not one to shy away from pompous metaphors describing its special offers, service rates and network reliability, so you won’t be surprised to hear CEO John Legere bill the newest time-limited T-Mobile promo as “our best deal ever”, and a “lifeline for the carriers’ long-abused customers.”Said mistreated customers can get up to 6GB LTE data per line per month for $30 each on T-Mo’s Simple Choice plans, paying just $20 for the addition of a new line starting with the fifth. Even better, “absolutely everyone in the family” will receive a

Leaked T-Mobile docs preview May 18 launch for Galaxy J7 and LG K10

Galaxy J7 (2016) and J5 (2016) start cropping up on European Samsung websites

Unlike the Galaxy A family, last year’s J series managed to easily set itself apart from Samsung’s flagship models, with appreciably lower-end specs, inferior build materials and palatable price tags. As a consequence of especially that last part, the first-gen J5 and J7 achieved sleeper hit status, helping the OEM retain its domination over all other smartphone manufacturers even in emerging markets.The two’s somewhat unexpected success also warranted premature sequels,

Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) and Galaxy J5 (2016) unveiled in China at last

Samsung Galaxy J3 for AT&T, J7 for 2016 leaked

Mid-rangers have been the filler for this part of the month, but they’re pretty important bread and butter in terms of making money for their manufacturers.
