Hot Deal: Grab a 5G Line for Just $40 and Score a Free Phone With This Metro By T-Mobile Plan
We all use our phones for nearly everything -- texting, browsing, directions, even ordering food -- which makes it essential to have a reliable phone plan. The problem? Phone plans, especially those from big carriers, are rarely cheap. Most start at over $50 for a single line, and jump even higher when you factor in extra fees and fine print. If you feel like you're paying more than you should, you are not alone. Thankfully, this can change today with Metro by T-Mobile's Starter Plus plan, which gets you unlimited 5G data, talk and text for a flat $40 a month when you bring your own number and sign up in-store. This price is locked in for five years. Even better, you can currently score a free 5G phone when you activate in-store -- that's quite rare. Basically, what you sign up for is what you'll keep paying for the next five years. The plan also includes some useful extras like Scam Shield, which helps block robocalls and spam texts before they even reach your phone. You will also get access to T-Mobile Tuesdays, which is a weekly program that gives you some freebies and discounts on things like food, gas and more. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. The speeds offered by the Starter Plus plan range between 79–357 Mbps, depending on your area. If you use less than 35GB of data per month, you likely won't experience any slowdowns. Plus, if at any point you need more than one line, there's a discount on that too. You can get four lines for $100 total, which breaks down to $25 per person. Why this deal matters Phone plans with additional perks rarely come cheap. This limited-time offer gets you unlimited 5G, locked-in pricing and much more for just $40, which makes it hard to beat. Just note that you'll need to swing by a store to claim the offer.

Right now you can get the Motorola Razr 2025 for free: No long-term commitment required
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Get a new Motorola Razr 2025 for free. The only catch? You'll need to pay for 3 months of Total upfront. After the 3 months are up, the Motorola Razr 2025 will be unlocked and can be taken to another carrier. The new Motorola Razr 2025 is almost here, officially launching later this week. It's already relatively affordable at $700, but what if you could get it for free? That's exactly what Total Wireless is offering right now. Even better, there is no long-term commitment required, unlike typical free phone deals from major carriers. So, what's the catch? Okay, you do need to technically make a commitment here, but it's only for 3 months! You'll have to sign up for a new 3-month Total 5G or 5G Plus plan and port your number over. Once the three months are up, not only can you stick with Total if you're happy, but your phone will automatically be unlocked, and so you're free to switch carriers if you prefer. Your upfront cost will depend on which plan you choose, but the base Total 5G plan comes to $152.60 total, or about $50.88 per month. Just note that this doesn't include taxes. All in all, this is a phenomenal deal. While we haven't published our full review of the Motorola Razr 2025 yet, our early impressions suggest it is very similar to its predecessor. That makes it a tougher sell at full price, especially with the Motorola Razr 2024 frequently on sale. But the fact that Total is offering the newer model for effectively free changes the equation entirely. For those needing a quick refresher: the Motorola Razr 2025 is a mid-range foldable powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 7400X and equipped with 8GB of RAM. It also offers 256GB of storage, a 6.9-inch OLED main display, a 3.6-inch outer display, and a camera system consisting of a 50MP main sensor and a 13MP ultrawide shooter. Rounding things out is a solid 4,500mAh battery. It's not going to outperform flagship phones with Snapdragon's top-tier chips, but it should offer a smooth, capable experience. Sure, it's not perfect,t but when you're getting a stylish foldable for free, it's hard to complain. Head over to Total Wireless to pick up the Razr 2025 for free now! Got a tip? Talk to us!

T-Mobile will give you a free phone with a trade-in, regardless of its condition or your plan
Ryan Whitwam / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile is offering the Moto Edge 2024 for free with any trade-in, including damaged phones. This deal works with all plans without requiring any changes, including older legacy ones, though you'll need to pay a $35 connection fee. Is it worth it? Mostly. While the Moto Edge 2024 has solid performance and fast charging, it comes with limited software support and some bloatware. Looking for a free phone on T-Mobile's network? While there are plenty of promotions out there that do just that, many require newer (and often higher-end) plans to qualify. The good news is that if you want a free phone that works with any plans, including legacy plans, you may just be in luck. A verified T-Mobile employee on Reddit has revealed that the Moto Edge 2024 is currently available for any plans with any trade-in. Even better, the phone's condition or model doesn't matter either. That means cracked phones or those with other issues will still be accepted as long as the IMEI can be verified. Be aware that the phone might be free, but you will be required to pay a $35 connection charge. Beyond that, there doesn't seem to be any other catches. No plan changes required. The bigger question is whether or not the Moto Edge is worth it. Android Authority had lots of positive things to say about the device in our official Moto Edge 2024 review. The phone has decent performance, excellent fast charging, IP68 resistance, and plenty of other stand-out features. You may not find the very fastest processor here, but the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 is more than capable of delivering a solid experience. On the flipside, the Edge also only gives you three years of security updates and two years of OS updates. You'll also find quite a bit of bloatware here. Still, if you don't plan on leaving T-Mobile and need a new device? You could certainly do much worse. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .
