Not every phone is a hit. The news cycles are full of high-end, flagship handsets these days, and it's good to see companies seeing plenty of attention with them, but it always hasn't been that way...

What made you, or someone you know, switch to T-Mobile?

I hate limiting my phone usage to save battery life

When you go outside, around people, do you tend to check out which phone they're using? I do. All the time. I try to figure out which iPhone they're using, or which Galaxy S model they've adopted as...

How much will you spend for a bigger iPhone?

Word on the street is that September 9 is going to be a pretty busy day. Apple's going to announce not just one new iPhone, but two. Two! A 4.7- and 5.5-inch iPhone 6. And, in two fell swoops, going...

What's the most data you've ever used in a month?

Ever since T-Mobile started doing their "uncarrier" operations, we've seen the other wireless carriers try to shake things up on their own, as much as they can. For Sprint, that eventually meant the...

It feels like it's been forever since we first started hearing about a Samsung-branded smartphone with a metal . . . something or other, and now, in the middle of 2014, we finally have it. Is it...

Siri needs features to match the competition

I've been seeing a lot of the same commercial as of late. It's a pretty straightforward piece of advertising, with an iPhone 5s on the left, and a Windows Phone-based handset on the right. It's a...
