Have a carrier in mind or just looking for a cheap plan? Here are the cheapest plans you can get from each one. If you want to save money on your phone plan, there are more options than ever from new ways to save on the major carriers or going with an MVNO. MVNOs (mobile virtual network operators) or alternative carriers, lease coverage from the larger networks and resell it for less. That being said, depending on your usage and needs, a plan from one of the Big Four might be your least expensive option. Here we go. Before choosing a plan Before you choose a carrier and/or a wireless plan, it's best to first determine your needs and usage habits. If this is your first smartphone, I'd like to first welcome you to the 21st Century and secondly encourage you to try out your options without getting yourself into any yearly or multi-year contracts. If this ain't your first rodeo, then reflect on your phone habits from the past. How much data have you actually used in an average month... […]

Don't miss The Bronze Bomber take on The Gypsy King in an epic rematch WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder and lineal champion Tyson Fury will settle their "Unfinished Business" when they meet in the ring at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday for their highly anticipated rematch. Back in December of 2018, Wilder and Fury fought a 12-round split-decision draw in arguably one of the best heavyweight fights in years which saw Wilder retain his WBC title. During the fight, Wilder was able to drop Fury to the mat twice, once in the eighth round and once in the 12th round, but the "Gypsy King" was able to get back up both times and finish the round. Since their first meeting, both fighters have won two fights each. Wilder defeated Dominic Breazeale by first-round KO in May and then six months later "The Bronze Bomber" stopped Luis Ortiz during round seven of their 2018 rematch. Fury meanwhile defeated Tom Schwarz in just two rounds in June and then he triumphed over... […]

Sick of committing to annual contracts? Enjoy the flexibility of a prepaid wireless plan. The days of being locked into a lengthy wireless contract are over, as there are a plethora of prepaid options that allow you to pay for your phone service on a month-to-month basis. We've taken the liberty of breaking down the top prepaid wireless options for you in this handy guide. Check your coverage One of the first things you should consider when deciding on a prepaid carrier is the coverage provided in your area. Prepaid carriers often have a smaller coverage map than postpaid carriers because of their limited roaming agreements, so it's good to re-check your area, even if you've used the carrier before. Here are the coverage maps for the carriers we will be looking at: Metro by T-Mobile AT&T Prepaid Boost Mobile T-Mobile Prepaid Mint Mobile Republic Wireless Consumer Cellular Straight Talk Cricket Wireless US Mobile Verizon Prepaid Visible Simple Mobile Metro by T-Mobile ...

The Super Bowl is well behind us, which means that the 2019 NFL season has officially concluded. If that just wasn't enough football for you, you'll be pleased to know that the XFL season has kicked off. It started on February 8 and will last 10 weeks. There will be two games on Saturday and two games on Sunday as the teams battle through the 2020 XFL season to see who will come out on top. The first week of the 2020 season brought in over 3.3 million viewers on ABC, so it's clear that people wanted to see what it was all about. The second week was quite similar in overall viewers. Last year the Alliance of American Football (AAF) drew in 2.9 million viewers in the first week, but it quickly fell off after that. It will be interesting to see how performance continues for the remainder of this season. What is the XFL? The XFL is a winter and spring football league that was started by Vince McMahon, the CEO of the WWE wrestingly organization. It originally debuted back in 2001 and m... […]

It's big and badass, but it's $1,400 so I know I'm not buying one. So why do I really, really want to do it? Like everyone expected, Samsung showed off a set of new phones that are downright amazing and somehow even better than the downright amazing models it showed us last time. I've not touched any of them, but I'm confident that any of the Galaxy S20 models would be an awesome phone that would make any smartphone lover pretty happy. That Galaxy S20 Ultra though. It's beautiful. But one stands head and shoulders above the rest: the Galaxy S20 Ultra. It's one big bold phone with all the bells and whistles you expect from a Galaxy phone plus a few more, like a 100X Space Zoom camera and a model with 16 GB of RAM. It's even a 5G phone that appears to be able (based on the network specs of the T-Mobile model) to work everywhere so you can run around and look for places with a 5G connection as a hobby, if that's your thing. But it's also $1,400 dollars, so I know I'll never be b... […]

Huawei's latest phones are considered "uncertified" for Google Play Protect. What you need to know In a new post, Google's Legal Director for Android and Google Play warned users against sideloading Google's apps on Huawei's latest phones. He noted that Huawei's latest phones were not Play Protect certified, and sideloading Google Mobile Services could pose a security threat. Huawei phones launched before May 16, 2019 will continue to be supported, however. Following its addition to the U.S. Entity List, Huawei's partnership with Google for its phones all but ended. As a result, the Chinese smartphone maker could no longer ship its phones with Google's app store or the company's tailored suite of apps, such as Gmail, YouTube, and Maps, collectively known as Google Mobile Services (GMS). The lack of these services has made Huawei's phones all but unrecommendable outside of China and dealt a significant blow to the company's aspirations of becoming the largest smartphone maker. ...
