You don’t have to tell your date that you won’t be breaking the bank to take him or her to both dinner and the movies. In fact, with all the money T-Mobile will help you save, you might even encourage that order of dessert or extra popcorn. Thanks to the Uncarrier’s exclusive partnership with 20th Century Fox, T-Mobile customers will soon be able to score $4 tickets to five of the most highly anticipated films of the year. It all began on Tuesday, January 23, when subscribers to the mobile service provider were given the opportunity to score cheap tickets to the opening of Maze Runner: The Death Cure. And now in February, the movie in question is Red Sparrow, starring Jennifer Lawrence.

On Monday, February 12, T-Mobile President and CEO John Legere debuted 90-second video sneak peek of the upcoming film, and on Tuesday, folks can enter to win a so-called “secret agent” VIP trip to Washington, D.C. The giveaway includes three nights in D.C. for the winner and a guest, as well as a tour of the International Spy Museum and a private tour of D.C.’s “espionage hot spots with a former CIA agent.” And next Tuesday, February 27, Un-carrier customers will be able to grab a $4 ticket to Red Sparrow and redeem it through the Atom Tickets app beginning March 2.

Throughout the rest of the year, you’ll be able to look forward to more $4 tickets to Deadpool 2, Alita: Battle Angel, and X-Men: Dark Phoenix.

These aren’t unprecedented offers for Un-carrier customers. In 2017, T-Mobile also teamed up with both 20th Century Fox and Atom Tickets to give customers discounted entry to War for the Planet of the Apes in theaters. This offer proved to be such a success among T-Mobile Tuesdays fans that the company is expanding its partnership with both the film studio and the ticket service. Indeed, T-Mobile noted, movies are the most popular deals on its giveaway app.

“In 2017, we served up over 63 million awesome freebies and deals to Un-carrier customers through T-Mobile Tuesdays,” Legere said in a statement. “Now, we are bringing this year’s biggest blockbuster movies from Twentieth Century Fox Film just to say, ‘Thank you for being a customer.’”

Google Play is copying one of the Nintendo Switch’s handiest features
Sidekick can now save the previous 30 seconds of an Android game after something worth recording has already happened

Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.

Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.

Samsung’s Galaxy throttling scandal is back from the dead with a $15 million fine
Four years after Galaxy owners uncovered hidden gaming limits, Samsung faces a major penalty over performance claims it says weren’t deceptive
The Galaxy S21 Ultra from the back, held in a hand.

Samsung’s scandal over its Game Optimizing Service, or GOS, has returned with a bill attached. South Korea’s Fair Trade Commission has tentatively fined the company 20.1 billion won, or about $15.1 million, over gaming claims made for the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S22, and Tab S8.

The regulator says Samsung promoted the devices as gaming powerhouses without disclosing that GOS placed preset CPU and GPU limits on certain demanding games. Samsung disputes that conclusion, calling GOS a legitimate way to manage heat.

Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

Apple's next cheaper iPhone could get a brand-new processor while keeping its most stubborn display compromise. Digital Chat Station tips the iPhone 18e for a 2027 release with a 2nm A20 chip and a 6.12-inch OLED screen still limited to 60Hz.

The rumored camera setup includes a single 48MP rear camera and a possible 24MP selfie camera. There's new hardware to consider, but buyers hoping Apple would extend that upgrade generosity to smoother scrolling could be disappointed.
