Are you looking to grab a shiny new iPhone 6S tomorrow? Well T-Mobile just might have the best deal around if you have an iPhone or another Android phone to trade in.

Right now you can get the iPhone 6S 16GB for only $5 per month if you trade-in an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus and sign up with the Jump On Demand program. If the iPhone 6S Plus 16GB is more your thing, it’s only $9 per month. Switching from Android? No problem, T-Mobile will give you the same deal if you trade-in a Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, Galaxy S6 Edge Plus, or a Galaxy Note 5.

T-Mobile CEO John Legere launched this deal to celebrate the surge in iPhone pre-orders over last year. Legere thinks this surge is not necessarily because more people are wanting to buy a new iPhone, but instead, more people are choosing T-Mobile because it doesn’t offer all the BS that other carriers do.

Jump On Demand allows you to spread out most of the full retail cost of your new phone over 18 monthly installments with a balloon payment at the end if you wish to keep your phone. The kicker is that you’re allowed to upgrade your device up to 3 times per year by simply trading in your existing phone.

If you don’t have another phone to trade, you can still grab the iPhone 6S 16GB for $20 per month or the iPhone 6S Plus for only $24 per month. The total cost for the iPhone 6S 16GB would be $360 for the 18 months plus a $164 balloon payment at the end if you want to keep the phone. That’s only $524, well below the cost that other carriers are selling the phone for.

While the 16GB versions of the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus are by far the best deals, T-Mobile is also offering reduced pricing on the other models. You can even trade in an older phone, too. Here’s the full pricing breakdown.

I tried 4 of the best earbud and phone combos. Here’s which one you should use
The OnePlus Nord 4 and OnePlus Buds Pro 3, Google Pixel 9 Pro and Google Pixel Buds 3, Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max with Airpods Pro 2, and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro.

When you buy a smartphone from Apple, Samsung, Google, or OnePlus, there’s always going to be the temptation to get a matching set of wireless earbuds to go along with it, as each manufacturer makes its own pair. But what exactly does it mean when you stay loyal to the brand, and is it worth it?

I’ve used the latest phones and earbuds from each manufacturer to find out. Here's what you need to know — and which pair is the best.
What have I tested?

This may be our first look at the iPhone 17 Pro’s massive redesign
Back of the iPhone 16 Pro next to the Pixel 9 Pro

The iPhone 17 has been the subject of quite a few leaks so far, but we might have just gotten our first look at its redesign. Spoiler alert: it's a big one. If this design is accurate, then Apple has completely shifted the way it positions cameras on the back of devices by opting for a horizontal side-by-side placement that makes the iPhone 17 look a lot like a Pixel device.

The suggested appearance was first leaked on Weibo, then noticed and shared on X by known tipster Jukanlosreve. The post shows what looks to be a frame, said to be part of the iPhone 17 supply chain. According to the Weibo post, the bar places the ultrawide angle lens in the middle to make room for the "front structured light." We assume this means FaceID. The post has been translated from Chinese to English, so a few details were lost in translation.

If you have an iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 16 Pro Max, updated to iOS 18.2, and regularly use the Voice Memos app, then your phone just got even better if you're a musician. Originally teased in September’s iPhone 16 event, Layered Recordings is now available in the Voice Memos app with the iOS 18.2 update.

What exactly are Layered Recordings? Basically, you can now add a vocal track layer on top of any existing instrumental recording without the need for headphones. In the iOS 18.2 update, users are now able to play original instrument ideas through the iPhone’s built-in speakers while simultaneously recording vocals with the studio-quality microphone on the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max.
