T-Mobile Music Freedom ups the ante with a slew of new Music Services

T-Mobile is called the “Uncarrier” for a reason as they like to shake things up. They’ve done just that several times this year, and today they really kicked things up a notch with a huge new T-Mobile Music Freedom update.
T-Mob has done a lot of cool things for their customers this year. This includes raising the trade-in prices on devices, offering new plans, and a little something called T-Mobile Music Freedom. The service was rolled out earlier in the year as a way to let users’ stream music without affecting their data cap. At the time, there were several services missing, but that has been remedied today.
The new T-Mobile Music Freedom update brings a whopping 14 new music services into the fold. Folks with Freedom on Magenta will now be able to use Google Play Music, SoundCloud, RadioTunes, Xbox Music, Digitally Imported, Mad Genius Radio, Live365, JazzRadio, Fresca Radio, Fit Radio, radioPup, Saavn, RockRadio, and radio.com. Those new streamers join the rest of the gang on Music Freedom, which already includes Rhapsody, Spotify, Slacker, Pandora, AccuRadio, Songza, Rdio, Black Planet, Grooveshark, iTunes Radio, iHeart Radio, Milk Music and Radio Paradise.
If you love music and are thinking about switching carriers, the T-Mobile Music Freedom Promo is well worth making the jump. Streaming music can take a big hit on your data cap, and Magenta’s program covers most major services. The update adding Google Play Music is a big deal, and a move that’s going to make a lot of folks happy.
Would you make the jump to T-Mob if your favorite music streaming service was included?

Apple’s RED App campaign brings Ida’s RED Dream to Monument Valley

As we mentioned this morning, December 1^st is World AIDS Day, and Apple is doing their part with their RED app promotion on iTunes. A slew of games are getting Product RED updates, and one of our favorites is in on the action. Monument Valley is part of the RED app promo, and along with it comes the Ida’s RED Dream stage.
Monument Valley is one of the more interesting mobile games you’re likely to play, and the Ida’s RED Dream stage comes on the heels of the Forgotten Shores expansion pack. The iOS RED app promo takes gamers through the trippy world of Monument Valley one more time, and it’s only going to set you back $0.99 if you already own the game. It is also completely separate from the Forgotten Shores add-on, so you don’t have to buy it to play Ida’s RED Dream.
We already told you about the FIFA 15 RED update and the Clash of Clans app update for RED as well. In addition to those games and Monument Valley, you can get RED content from Angry Birds, CSR Racing, Puzzle & Dragons and dozens more. You can even get BEATS RED Solo 2 headphones in the Kim Kardashian Hollywood app or RED items in the Sims FreePlay.
The Apps for RED promotion is now live and will be active for the next two weeks. There are 25 different apps with new RED content to choose from, and ALL proceeds will go directly to the Global Fund to fight AIDS. You can check out the full selection of apps or read more about the promotion from the link below.

The OnePlus 2 to stay Cheap and offer more Customization Options

Despite various mishaps, the OnePlus One was still one of the cooler handsets this year and it showed consumers they don’t have to shell out $500 bucks to pick up a top-tier handset. The OnePlus 2 is a lock to arrive sometime next year, and today we’ve learned a few new details about the upcoming device.
Business Insider has the scoop on the new OnePlus, and it is said to be called the OnePlus 2. According to a source that’s “familiar with the situation” there will be more StyleSwap covers this time around, and they will be available at launch. They did manage to get a few covers out this year, but as you’d expect, they had issues with those. Hopefully that won’t be the case with the OnePlus 2.
The OnePlus 2 is also said to have some “surprises” in store with the hardware on the upcoming handset. The original had solid specs across the board, so it may be hard to top them depending on when the phone is actually released. If we’re going to speculate, a Snapdragon 805/810, 3GB of RAM and 32/64GB sounds about right. The “surprise” could be a new fingerprint scanner or possibly a QHD display.
Last but not least, the rumor mill says the company will keep things cheap with the OnePlus 2. This isn’t really a surprise as the whole reason people wanted the original was due to its price and specs. If they keep the hardware upgrade minimal, they could definitely keep the price under $400 bucks again. If not, they will likely have a hard time as they are going to have more competition on the “Flagship Killer” front in 2015.
Are you excited to see what OnePlus does with the sequel or do you think they should concentrate on manufacturing and PR issues?

Garfield Kart Fast & Furry zooms onto mobiles

Kart racing games are plentiful on the app stores, but good free kart racing games are not easy to come by. Garfield Kart made some friends when it arrived for mobiles, and now a free follow up has touched down for Android and iOS with Garfield Kart Fast & Furry.

Most of the population under a certain age has played Mario Kart, and Kart Racing games on mobiles can be a match made in heaven. Garfield Kart Fast & Furry is the latest game to take things to the track, and its set in the world of Garfield, Odie and the rest of the gang. Hopefully Sheldon will make an appearance, but we haven’t seen him yet.

As with any Kart Racer, the goal of the game is to get around the track and take out your opponents with fun things like pies. Garfield Kart Fast & Furry gives users a couple of different control styles to work with, and there are various game modes and challenges to take on as well.

The ZTE K70 Dual-SIM Tablet gets FCC certification

ZTE is one of the few Chinese manufacturers making an effort to take their handsets global, and we’ve seen a number of their devices arrive in the states this year. What we haven’t seen, is a dual-SIM tablet in the US, but it looks like we’re getting one with the ZTE K70 tablet.
ZTE launched the ZTE MAX on Magenta back in September, and several other handsets are expected to arrive in the US over the next year. The ZTE K70 tablet is an oddity with its dual-SIM configuration, and according to a recent FCC filing, it’s soon bound for the states.
FCC filings generally don’t tell us much, and the ZTE K70 listing shows a tablet that looks to be around 7.5-inches long and 4.5-inches wide. You can clearly see a sensor and camera on the front along with some buttons on the sides, but that’s about it. We won’t speculate on the ZTE K70 specs, but you’re probably looking at a mid-range device. That said, it’s a mid-ranger with WCDMA and GSM support.
It remains to be seen where the ZTE K70 tablet will land or exactly how much it will cost when it arrives. T-Mob seems like a good fit for the slate and we expect the price to be under $300 bucks whenever it touches down in the states.
