Most major cell service providers require you to sign a multiyear contract, so choosing the right one is a big decision. You’ll want to consider factors like the coverage in your area and how many lines you’re looking to add, but most carriers also offer some serious deals that could sway your decision. And there are some excellent T-Mobile deals you can take advantage of right now that make it a pretty competitive pick — especially for Apple fans looking to upgrade.

T-Mobile has some bargains up for grabs, including free lines and streaming services. But one highlight is the chance to snag yourself the top-rated iPhone 16 Pro for free. The language on some of these offers can be a little confusing, so we’ve broken down how T-Mobile’s current deals work below. Note that there aren’t any set expirations for these offers, so they could vanish at any moment. We wouldn’t wait too long if you’re hoping to take advantage of these savings.

Why these deals matter

You more or less need a phone with reliable coverage these days, but costs can add up quickly. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your mobile device or shopping for the best family plans, these T-Mobile deals can help save you some serious cash each month.

Amazon has used drones to deliver packages, but according to an internal report cited by The Information, the retailer is planning to test out more human-like autonomous delivery methods. Namely, robots that would walk right up to your door to deliver items.

The company is reportedly finishing work on a San Francisco-based obstacle park to work on the technology. It’s unclear how soon the technology might be developed or used for real-world deliveries.

Amazon has been touting its work in robotics for the home and for warehouse work, but this is the first time the company has made an explicit push into using human-like robotics for package delivery, which could replace human workers. The robots would use some of the same AI technology that the company is rolling across other areas of its business.

Along with delivery robots, Amazon is working on humanoid robots that would work in its warehouses, according to Reuters, reporting on an event at Amazon’s Lab126 research facility.

In a post on its X account, Amazon pointed to a story about how it’s using agentic AI across several fronts: «We’re developing foundation models that will allow fulfillment center robots to understand and act on natural language commands. Imagine saying ‘Pick up that yellow tote’ and having a robot do it instantly. The future of robotics is here, and it speaks your language.»

The company has hundreds of robotics-related job listings posted in the US, Canada, Germany and Luxembourg. 

 Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for information.

The Switch 2 is here, and I am as excited as I can be. I know a lot of people have preordered and more are lining up to buy one, but in the hustle and bustle of getting the console itself, you may have missed the need for some accessories. We know the Switch 2 has a cool USB-C camera, but standard accessories like cases and screen protectors may have flown under the radar.

I’ve spent some time finding as many Switch 2 accessories as I can, and while CNET has not had a chance to review them, they are all available for you to pick up for your new console sooner rather than later. 

While buying all new accessories for your new Switch 2 is a good idea, some of your Switch 1 accessories will still work with the Switch 2, so you may want to see what you already have to help reduce the cost. The Joy-Cons will still work, though they won’t clip to the console and the Switch Pro Controller will as well, though the new one will work better, of course.
