Does Verizon offer free phones to new customers?

You bet, but temper your expectations. While Verizon’s new customer deals and sign-up offers are a good way to score a more basic phone for free (like the 2020 iPhone SE or one of the Samsung Galaxy A-series devices, to name just a couple of popular examples), you’ll still have to pay for newer, more expensive phones like the iPhone 15 Pro.

That’s not to say there aren’t cheap Verizon deals on those phones, though. Carrier sign-up discounts like these Verizon new customer deals are arguably the best and most straightforward way to snag one of those new flagships for a low price. These markdowns usually come in the form of bill credits and are only offered with unlimited plans, requiring you to buy the phone first and then get a discount on your bill. That might not sound as enticing as a standalone price cut, but that’s just psychological — you’re still getting the savings. You’ll notice those savings as you rack them up with each (discounted) monthly payment. There are even some deals, like the trade-in offer for the Samsung Galaxy S23 , that still technically come as monthly discounts, but will completely cover the cost of the phone. That means the phone will be completely free as long as you stay with Verizon for a few years.

Motorola’s wide foldable just leaked, and it could fix the Galaxy Z Fold 8’s biggest problem
Here's your first real look at Motorola's next big foldable, sketches and all.
Electrical Device, Switch, Electronics

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, the company’s first wide foldable, became a sleeper hit that no one saw coming. It was quite obvious Samsung made the wide fold in a preemptive attempt to compete with the upcoming iPhone Ultra, but it struck gold. The phone is selling so well now that the company is facing severe component shortages. 

It seems other companies have seen Fold 8’s success and are taking their own stab at making a wide foldable. According to a new report from Android Headlines, Motorola is working on a wide foldable phone, and we just got our first real look at it. An anonymous source shared exclusive sketches with the outlet, giving us a solid idea of the device's design before Motorola has said a word.

Your next charger might judge how slowly your phone is charging
Vention has brought a 140W GaN charger to IFA 2026 with a quirky display that uses animated faces to show exactly how fast your gadgets are charging.
Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

Chargers usually don't have much personality. Plug something in, maybe glance at a tiny LED, and hope your phone or laptop is getting power as quickly as it should. Vention's latest charger has a slightly more entertaining way of keeping you informed: It makes faces at you.

Unveiled at IFA 2026, the Vention Dash Pro is a 140W GaN charger with four ports and a small display that uses animated, color-coded faces to show what's happening. Alongside it, Vention has introduced the H Series, a remarkably thin magnetic power bank that puts considerably more emphasis on design than the chunky battery packs we're used to carrying around. Both are part of Vention's bigger push into the US and European markets, but they tackle portable charging in very different ways.

Tecno made a Tonino Lamborghini edition smartphone and it looks pretty stunning 
The rear panel lights up when the phone boots, and the camera island has its own animated display
TECNO POVA 8 Pro 5G Tonino Lamborghini Limited Edition launched at IFA 2026

At IFA 2026, Tecno came with a packed slate of hardware, revealing the MEGABOOK T15 360 as its first 360-degree hinge laptop, a Bezel-less Concept Phone, and the sleek TECNO CAMON Slim 5G smartphone. The limelight, however, was stolen by the TECNO POVA 8 Pro 5G Tonino Lamborghini Limited Edition smartphone.

Yes, the name is quite a mouthful, but the device is extremely stunning to look at. The device adopts an eye-catching black-and-red palette with lovely hexagon patterns on the back. Running vertically across the rear shell is what Tecno refers to as the Pulse Line that plays a key role in the aesthetics. It lights up every time you boot up the phone.
