Apple’s 4-inch iPhone SE is about to hit stores on March 31 — and with pre-orders hitting 3.4 million in China alone — T-Mobile is jumping on the hype with a buy one get one half off deal.

The deal doesn’t just apply to the iPhone SE. In fact, if you buy any new iPhone from T-Mobile’s offerings, you can get another one half off — but you have to add a line to your plan. The deal works for the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus, 6, 6 Plus, the 5S, 5C, and of course, the iPhone SE. If you have already pre-ordered an iPhone SE, you can still participate in the offer.

If you take the Un-carrier’s offer, you’ll get half of the money back from the second “iPhone device of equal or lesser value” through a prepaid Mastercard.

The magenta Un-carrier hasn’t been shy with these types of deals for big device launches — it had a buy one get one free offer when Samsung’s Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge launched earlier this month.

To qualify for the plan, you have to enroll in an equipment installment plan for both devices, meaning you’ll have to pay them off in monthly payments, rather than upfront. The line you add for the second device will also have to stay active until October 15 of 2016.

T-Mobile’s BOGO half off deal in celebration of the iPhone SE’s launch is limited to stock, and kicks off on March 31. It’s unknown how long it will last, but if you want to get an iPhone for a good price, it’s a good idea to jump on the deal. You can check out all the details on T-Mobile’s website.

iPhone 17 series could finally end Apple’s stingy era of slow screens

Apple has played a relatively slow innovation game when it comes to display upgrades on its phones. The company took its own sweet time embracing OLED screens, then did the same with getting rid of the ugly notch, and still has a lot of ground to cover at adopting high refresh rate panels.

The status could finally change next year. According to Korea-based ET News, which cites an industry source, Apple will fit an LTPO (low-temperature polycrystalline oxide) screen across the entire iPhone 17 series, including the rumored slim version and the entry-point model.

Over the past few months, multiple reports have popped up on Reddit and Apple’s official product forum regarding an iPhone 14 Plus issue that renders a black screen instead of a frame preview in the camera app. It seems Apple has finally caught wind of the complaints and has launched a servicing program to help affected owners.

“Apple has determined that the rear camera on a very small percentage of iPhone 14 Plus devices may exhibit no preview. Affected devices were manufactured between April 10, 2023, to April 28, 2024,” says the company.
