According to images shared by The Mobile Report , the insulated water bottles will be black with an inconspicuous T-Mobile "T" logo at the bottom and a splash of magenta at the top. There's even a pop-out integrated straw, but you can also open the spring-loaded lid and drink from the spout.
The bottle will likely arrive at stores later this month. | Image Credit - The Mobile Report
The capacity of the bottle is not known, but it looks to be the perfect size — neither so big that it will be difficult to carry around nor so small that it won't hold enough water. It's not clear when these will be available, but July 22, the Tuesday after the next, looks like a likely date. In any case, it will pop up in T-Life when the time comes, so keep an eye out and don't forget to claim it in the app.You'll have to go to a T-Mobile -owned store to grab your bottle. You may want to call ahead and inquire about availability, as stores tend to run out quickly.
Customers may not love everything that T-Mobile does, but it's gestures like these that help it to grow. T-Mobile Tuesdays is a pretty popular program, which explains why Verizon has decided to replicate it. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Starlink goes down mere hours after T-Mobile's service goes live
T-Mobile's long awaited satellite services — powered by SpaceX's Starlink network — went live yesterday, with the carrier making fun of 'rivals' scrambling to catch up. In an ironic twist of fate, however, the Starlink network suffered a very rare, major outage mere hours after the rollout of T-Mobile 's new claim to are assuming that this was due to a bad software update, a claim that is backed up by Starlink's own admission of key software components encountering a failure. Elon Musk also took to his platform — X, formerly Twitter — to promise that this issue would be addressed soon and will not happen again. The outage lasted for approximately 2.5 hours, during which tens of thousands of users were affected across the globe. Whatever the cause was seems to have been fixed, and most of the Starlink network is now back addition to a bad software update, it's too early to rule out the possibility of a coordinated attack on the network. If that is indeed what happened, then T-Mobile likely just unluckily got caught in the crossfire. Starlink is also in use by U.S. intelligence agencies, which seem like the intended target rather than T-Mobile . T-Mobile's partnership with Starlink aims to eliminate dead zones. | Image credit — T-Mobile The 'un-carrier' has been building up to the public release of its satellite-powered services for a long time. There have been beta rollouts prior, and users have generally reviewed the service quite positively. AT&T and Verizon won't be behind in this race for too long. Both carriers are partnering with AST SpaceMobile to bring users their own versions of satellite texting services. When the top three networks have rolled out their offerings, there shouldn't be any place in the U.S. that doesn't get cell reception. T-Mobile will be rolling out satellite-powered data plans later this year as well, a few months before its rivals announce their own competing services publicly. The Starlink outage is a very rare occurrence, and honestly not something I expected to ever happen. But, I suppose it serves as a strong reminder that even the most robust networks aren't prone to failures. Let's just hope something similar doesn't happen when a stranded user needs this service the most. Switch to a 2-month Total 5G or 5G+ plan with Total Wireless and score this foldable deal.

T-Mobile CEO Sievert reveals which of his rivals' customers he is gunning for
T-Mobile also raised its guidance for 2025, and that has led Wall Street to go, in the lingo of the pinstriped traders who work there, "Ape shit." Short sellers ran to cover, and combined with fresh buying, the stock soared over 6% by Thursday afternoon. T-Mobile shares are currently up $14 to $248 as I type this. No doubt that this market action pleases CEO Mike Sievert, who owns approximately 381,222 shares valued at more than $94 million. Today, the CEO has seen the value of his shares rise by more than $5 million. Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile. | Image credit-T-Mobile Speaking of T-Mobile 's top executive, during the company's earnings call on Wednesday, after the earnings report was released, the atmosphere was full of love and joy. Some of those good feelings were directed at T-Mobile customers. Sievert said, "The quality of our customers continues to improve at a rapid pace." And speaking of quality, the quality of the T-Mobile network was also discussed. With accolades heaped on T-Mobile 's network, most recently by Ookla with its Speedtest Connectivity Report for the U.S. during the first half of this year, Sievert knows exactly which of his rivals' customers he is going after. Read this and see if you can figure out the name of the T-Mobile competitor Sievert is talking about. "This represents an enormous runway for us. Network perception has now become a major focus for us for a simple reason. There's a massive opportunity from all those tens of millions of customers who went elsewhere in the 4G era, deliberately choosing what was then the best network. Well, there's a new best network in America and you'll be seeing us bring that message to consumers and businesses in really innovative ways. Our network lead continues to widen." -Mike Sievert, CEO, T-Mobile If you said AT&T, go to the corner and stand there, looking at the wall, for the rest of the day. The rival carrier Sievert is talking about is Verizon. And things will only improve for T-Mobile . On August 1st, T-Mobile will close on its acquisition of UScellular's nearly 4 million customers, its retail stores, and 30% of its spectrum in the 600 MHz, 700 MHz A Block, PCS, AWS, 2.5 GHz, and 24 GHz (mmWave) frequencies. The executive said that the T-Mobile network will get better after the deal closes. T-Mobile will pay $2.4 billion in cash and assume $2 billion of UScellular debt to acquire its assets. Sievert added that the new T-Satellite service is off to a great start. Over 250,000 emergency texts were sent during the floods in Texas. Speaking with Yahoo Finance, Sievert was asked why T-Mobile isn't taking advantage of its success by raising prices. He stated that T-Mobile customers are moving up to pricier rate plans on their own. He said, "The highest rate plans we offer that are packed with the most value for customers, have doubled in their popularity over the past year. I mean, that's amazing. In one year, they've doubled in their popularity." Before you T-Mobile customers get totally relaxed, Sievert isn't completely ruling out a rate hike. "We're open-minded about it over the long haul," he said, "But I'd much rather attract people up the rate card with fantastic value." He also said that in the past, consumers choosing a wireless carrier had to choose between choosing between the best network and the best value. He says that it is unprecedented that one company can offer both. Of course, he is talking about T-Mobile .

Google Pixel Watch 4 will reportedly debut a new side-mounted charging system
A new round of leaks suggests that Google is taking a different approach to charging with the Pixel Watch 4. According to a new report, the upcoming smartwatch will include a redesigned, side-mounted charging system that sets it apart from earlier Pixel Watch models. In this new system, Google has reportedly shifted the charging contacts from the back of the device to the left side, which is the opposite side of the digital crown. Renders show an indentation with two charging pins, and unlike past Pixel Watches, there will be no charging contacts on the back of the device. That space is now occupied by a new array of health sensors, similar to the ones found on the Pixel Watch 3. The design change could offer a more practical benefit. Since the watch will now rest on its side while charging, users will be able to check battery levels more easily when the watch is placed on a desk or nightstand. Reports also suggest that this new charging system may contribute to the Pixel Watch 4 's 25 percent faster charging speeds compared to the previous generation. Beyond convenience, the new side-mounted contacts may play a role in improving repairability. The Pixel Watch 4 is expected to be the first in the lineup to allow repairs, with technicians able to remove the back panel to access internal components. By removing the charging system from the rear casing, Google likely made that process easier to achieve. This new charging dock will reportedly be included in the box, although, consistent with past Pixel Watches, it will not come with a USB-C power adapter. Any standard 5W USB-C adapter will be compatible with the dock. Google is also expected to sell the dock separately on the Google Store, but pricing details have yet to be confirmed. Based on previous models, a starting price of $29.99 seems proprietary chargers often limit user convenience, I do appreciate the idea of a side-mounted dock. In the future, it would be great to see Google offer a dual-purpose charging cable, similar to OnePlus's SuperVOOC system, that can charge both the watch and a phone at once. The Google Pixel Watch 4 is expected to officially launch next month at the Made by Google event, which is taking place on August 20th.
