Samsung made a phone for chaos and T-Mobile just made it free (for some)

Just a month after Samsung launched the Galaxy XCover 7 Pro, it is now officially available at T-Mobile. Designed for those who deal with chaos head-on, the XCover 7 Pro brings serious durability and performance for emergency teams, field workers and frontline professionals. Starting May 15, T-Mobile customers can grab the Galaxy XCover 7 Pro, which is fully certified for T-Mobile 's T-Priority – a special 5G solution made to keep first responders connected when everything else might be breaking down. This means faster speeds, less lag and network priority when it matters most. Here is what T-Mobile is offering for public safety agencies, emergency teams and business users: Get the Galaxy XCover 7 Pro for free (or up to $600 off an eligible Samsung device) with a new line on Business Unlimited Advanced — no trade-in required. Get it free (or up to $800 off an eligible device) when you trade in an eligible device on an eligible Business Unlimited plan as an existing customer. – Mo Katibeh, Chief Marketing Officer, T-Mobile Business Group, May 2025 The XCover 7 Pro isn't about flashy specs – it is all about getting the job done no matter the conditions. It is IP68 rated for water and dust resistance, MIL-STD-810H certified for durability and protected by Gorilla Glass Victus Plus. The rugged build can handle drops, shocks, extreme temps, and more. It even has pogo pins if you need an alternative charging setup. You also get a glove-friendly touchscreen and push-to-talk (PTT) support for instant communication. Combine that with T-Priority's 5G network slice and you are looking at a device that stays connected when others might struggle. The XCover 7 Pro is the latest in Samsung's rugged series. | Image credit – Samsung While it is not aiming to be a spec monster, the XCover 7 Pro does see a solid upgrade over the standard model: Chipset : Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 (a big jump from the Dimensity 6100 Plus in the non-Pro version) : Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 (a big jump from the Dimensity 6100 Plus in the non-Pro version) Display : 6.6-inch TFT LCD with a waterdrop notch : 6.6-inch TFT LCD with a waterdrop notch RAM/Storage : 6 GB + 128 GB (expandable to 2TB) : 6 GB + 128 GB (expandable to 2TB) Battery : 4,350mAh removable battery : 4,350mAh removable battery Cameras : 50 MP main + 8 MP ultrawide + 13 MP selfie It ships with Android 15 out of the box and is promised seven years of OS and security updates. That is a major boost compared to other XCover phones. So if your job throws you into chaotic situations where staying connected is non-negotiable, the Galaxy XCover 7 Pro could be the perfect fit. But if you are exploring other options, it is worth checking out the best rugged phones available right now to see what suits your needs. For example, if you are on Verizon instead of T-Mobile , the carrier's exclusive Kyocera DuraForce PRO 3 is a solid alternative – it is MIL-STD-810H certified and built to handle drops from up to 5 feet onto concrete without breaking a sweat.

T-Mobile 5G Powers Lilo & Stitch Production for Disney Studios StudioLAB & Launches Campaign Celebrating the All-New Movie, in Theaters This May

America's largest and fastest 5G network helped bring Disney's upcoming live-action Lilo & Stitch to life BELLEVUE, Wash., April 03, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Since first announcing their partnership in 2022, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) and Disney Studios StudioLAB have collaborated to push the boundaries of how 5G-connected technology can enhance storytelling. And soon, millions will see the results come to life on the big screen when Disney's Lilo & Stitch lands in theaters May 23. Using T-Mobile 5G, crews seamlessly transported cinema-quality scenes from the upcoming live-action film straight from Hawaii sets to producers in Burbank, Calif., in near real time, unlocking significant improvements in the production process. And now, network slicing is opening even more possibilities, allowing filmmakers to transmit large amounts of high-resolution footage at ultra-fast speeds from nearly anywhere in the country to editors and directors wherever they are located. "When we shoot at any location, we have an expectation that we can get that footage back to Burbank right away," said Josh Haynie, VP of Production Technology, The Walt Disney Studios. "Our mission at the studio lab is to manufacture more time for the filmmaker and these solutions from T-Mobile help us achieve those goals." With T-Mobile's nationwide 5G standalone network, filmmakers can get high speeds and ultra-low latency through network slicing, private networks and connected high-speed encoders. The result? Faster location scouting, easier set striking and a more efficient production process — without costly delays or miles of wired connections. And it's all thanks to the nation's largest, fastest and most awarded 5G network. For the filming of Lilo & Stitch, production crews knew that they could rely on T-Mobile's high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity to securely transmit footage from on location back to the studio while being able to collaborate and communicate with remote teams at various locations. Having the stable, high-speed connection meant that crews could focus on making magic and avoid building out expensive, time-consuming hard-wired infrastructure. "Until now, capturing content typically came with the burden of hard-wired connections, but T-Mobile's 5G network is changing that through our partnership with Disney Studios StudioLAB," said Mo Katibeh, Chief Marketing Officer, T-Mobile Business Group. "T-Mobile 5G and network slicing give production teams the ability to explore new, unique perspectives and film at locations that were previously unavailable. From remote filming locations in Hawaii to congested studio networks, T-Mobile 5G is reshaping the way video content can be captured." Today, T-Mobile is also launching a campaign featuring Stitch, celebrating the film and its groundbreaking production process before it heads to theaters May 23.
