T-Mobile’s new family plan provides four people with unlimited data for $150

Add as a preferred source on Google

It’s a good time to be a family of four. T-Mobile has just announced the latest in a series of promotions that’ll get you and three others unlimited data for just $150. Heralding this offer as the “best-ever pricing for families,” the price is pretty sweet for boundless LTE for your smartphones. And better still, families and small businesses alike can add up to eight additional lines for $30 each. So if you’re constantly finding yourself on the losing end of your data plan, it may be time to consider a switch.

If unlimited data seems like too much data, you could also consider getting four lines of 10 GB per line (remember, T-Mobile doesn’t share, so every one of those 10 GBs are yours), for $120 per month. This translates to just $30 a month, which certainly sounds like a deal. And if you don’t have a large family, you can opt for two lines of 10 GB each for $100. Sure, at $50 per line, it’s a bit steeper, so you might as well grab a couple friends and make an ad-hoc family.

“Over the past year alone, we’ve more than doubled the reach of our LTE coverage, so more people than ever can now ride America’s fastest 4G LTE network,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile in a statement. “Last year, I told you we’d massively expand our LTE coverage, and we did. I promised we’d compete nearly everywhere with Verizon’s LTE network, and win. And that’s exactly what real-time, crowd-sourced studies are now confirming.”

The Un-carrier, which claims to be “America’s fastest 4G LTE network,” boasts that a record number of customers have been switching over for both the low prices and the additional benefits of being part of the T-Mobile family. And while one of their most frequently touted new programs, Binge-On, has received some negative attention in recent weeks, with prices like these, T-Mobile seems confident in its ability to attract new business.

Snapseed Camera now lets Android users save original photos and add geotags
Google updates Snapseed Camera with geotag support and non-destructive photo editing
Snapseed App

Google appears to be quietly turning Snapseed into something more than just a photo editing app. Over the past few weeks, the company has been steadily adding new capabilities to Snapseed Camera, its standalone camera app for Android. The latest update introduces two practical features that many smartphone users have come to expect from modern camera apps: the ability to save an untouched copy of every image for future editing and support for embedding location data directly into photos.

Neither feature is flashy, but together they make Snapseed Camera a more capable photography tool, particularly for users who like experimenting with filters without permanently altering their original shots. According to a report by 9to5Google, the features are rolling out with Snapseed Camera version 4.1.1.x on Android.

Samsung unveils Galaxy credit card ahead of Galaxy Unpacked
Samsung launches Galaxy Card with cashback on Galaxy purchases
Galaxy credit card

For years, Samsung has worked to turn Galaxy into more than a smartphone brand. Today, the company's ecosystem stretches across foldables, smartwatches, televisions, home appliances, smart home products and digital services. Now, it's adding another piece to that puzzle, one that has little to do with hardware.

Samsung has officially introduced the Samsung Galaxy Card, its first branded credit card in the U.S. Designed in partnership with Barclays US Consumer Bank and operating on the Visa network, the card rewards users for everyday spending while offering significantly higher cashback on purchases made directly through Samsung.

I found an iPhone app that builds a skincare routine from a 30-second face scan
A 30-second face scan is all this iPhone app needs to suggest a skincare routine
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

Indie developers have been behind some unusually specific apps across Apple’s platforms lately. Glaze can turn every Mac window into a CRT fever dream, while Screen Test can help expose monitor defects before the return window closes. I recently came across another one called Sharp, an iPhone app that uses a face scan to build and adjust a skincare routine.

Sharp was created by Esat, a student and solo developer from Germany who says his own skin problems inspired the project. The app is primarily aimed at people who want to start a routine but have little idea which products to use or what areas of their skin need attention.
