Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR For a limited time, you can get Mint Mobile’s Unlimited plan for 50% off. You’ll have to pay $180 upfront, but that works out to just $15 a month. Overall, this is a solid deal, but there are a few drawbacks, like lower network priority and no in-store customer service. Mint Mobile is known for its annual plans that offer access to T-Mobile’s network at a fraction of the price of postpaid, but its latest promotion is on a whole other level. The T-Mo

Could 5G Home Internet Be Your Household Broadband Solution?

T-Mobile’s US Cellular acquistion has been approved: What happened, and what’s next?

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR The DOJ and FCC have both approved T-Mobile’s $4.4 billion acquisition of most of US Cellular, with no major conditions or safeguards imposed. T-Mobile will gain US Cellular’s customers, stores, and spectrum, while US Cellular will keep its towers and focus on leasing them out. Critics worry the merger could reduce competition, especially in rural areas, but US Cellular customers shouldn’t see immediate changes at least. Last year, T-Mobile announced plan
