T-Mobile 5G Ultra Capacity offering limited edition Lite-Brite in partnership with Hasbro
T-Mobile is rapidly implementing its ultra-capacity 5G nationwide and has recently reached the “nationwide” coverage target of 200 million customers. To celebrate, T-Mobile is offering a limited edition Lite-Brite in partnership with Hasbro.
The Light-Bright is a classic toy from 1967 and probably a fond memory for generations. The T-Mobile version has 184 magenta-colored light pegs. It also comes with 4 wireless-themed design templates and a variety of color pegs.
In addition, some lucky buyers (1 in 1000 chance) win a “Magenta Ticket” that can be redeemed for a “5G experience of light-time” (via-XDA). This includes a full-cost-paid trip to two of the winning selection event in one of the three T-Mobile branded properties. These include the T-Mobile Park in Seattle, the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, and the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Winners will also receive a “T-Mobile 5G Prize Pack” that includes two brand new 5G phones and one year of free Magenta Max service, as well as HD TV and one year of T-Mobile home internet service.
T-Mobile’s 5G Ultra capability mainly refers to its mid-band n41, which was acquired from Sprint in the merger. It provides a “sweet spot” between the coverage range and the speed, which often touches the download speed of 600+ Mbps.
If you are interested in purchasing T-Mobile Lite-Bright Limited Time, you can purchase it on the T-Mobile website. Hurry up though, there are at least 1,800 units left as of the publication of this article!

So finally, here’s a sneak peek at the Samsung Galaxy S25 design (renders). Steve (Onleaks/X) unquestionably made this weekend outstanding, giving us a “nearly” final idea of what Samsung’s next bold flagship will look like.
All four sides of the Galaxy S25 Ultra are flat, replicating the Pixel 9’s design, which followed the iPhone approach. The smartphone is said to be nearly 13 grams lighter than the Galaxy S24 Ultra and 8 grams lighter than the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
The smartphone seemingly features Galaxy Z Fold 6-inspired camera rings. The outer ring thick circular design, which matches the Z Fold 6. It will look a lot better in real graphics than the CAD-based renders leaked today.
What to expect?
Samsung could launch the Galaxy S25 series in early next year. The lineup will include three models: Standard, Plus, and Ultra. Most of the Samsung fans are excited for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which would introduce breakthrough innovation.
The company is considering using the Snapdragon chipset internationally. We could see the Galaxy S23 series as a processor strategy in the S25 series. Regardless of the region, the flagships would utilize Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset.
Galaxy AI suite will also be upgraded with new artificial tricks and magics. The Korean tech giant won’t leave any stone unturned in upgrading the user experience. We are excited to hear more about the upcoming phones throughout the launch.

At It’s Glowtime event, Apple launched new colors of old AirPods Max product. The gadget now comes in Midnight, Starlight, Blue, Purple, and Orange, and offers USB-C charging for more convenience.
AirPods Max is an over-the-ear headphones offered by Apple. The company debuted five new colors of the product at the It’s Glowtime event yesterday. It isn’t the only old item, which refreshed, as the Watch Ultra 2 also got a new color hue.
Apple announced the new colors of AirPods Max cost $549 and went on pre-order yesterday. Shoppers will start receiving their orders starting September 20 as announced by the iPhone maker at yesterday’s It’s Glowtime event.
AirPods Max features a breathable knit mesh canopy, distributing weight to reduce on-head pressure. The noise control button easily switches between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode.
Pushing its own ecosystem, Apple says AirPods Max users will support all features if connected with an iPhone. Similar to Wear OS exclusivity to Android, Apple is continuing its approach of accentuating feature limitations.
Apple’s decision to unveil new colors of AirPods Max is a strategic move. The company doesn’t require a dedicated launch event to announce the color refresh of products. However, it’s great to utilize a stage to introduce multiple products.
There’s no heavy outrage over the lack of innovation of lazy design movements. Other vendors like Samsung and Google face immense criticism across the internet. Anyways, consumers should be aware and get the best service for the money they are spending.
No Watch Ultra 3: Apple refreshes Watch Ultra 2 against Galaxy Watch Ultra
Samsung didn’t miss the opportunity to troll Apple during the iPhone 16 launch. While the company was introducing its new iPhone models, Samsung repeated a question it asked two years back.
The hype created for iPhone 16 and Apple Intelligence backfired as it can’t crush the Samsung Galaxy AI lead. The Korean tech giant trolled Apple over remaining foldable free. Limited features and availability of Apple Intelligence also came on Samsung’s radar.
Samsung Mobile US used its X handle to poke fun at Apple’s iPhone 16 and Intelligence suite. The mindful attacks show the self-confidence the company has to reiterate its edge over the Cupertino-based company.
In a pair of strategic tweets, Samsung managed to capture attention and spark conversation. The first tweet quotes a two-year-old tweet asking “Let us know when it folds 💁♀️” with a refreshed caption “Still waiting……”
Still waiting…… https://t.co/s6SFaLTk3b

The second tweet followed with:
“You know… we may have set your AI expectations too high. 🤔”
Here, Samsung subtly suggested that Galaxy AI might have set a standard that Apple’s latest device struggled to meet. Galaxy AI is far ahead of Apple Intelligence in many aspects. It not only contains a suite of useful features but also covers a wider audience.
You know… we may have set your AI expectations too high. 🤔

Apple is Samsung’s biggest enemy in the smartphone market. Both companies fight to lead the global smartphone market. Apple dominates the US market, while Samsung gives pretty fierce competition with its flagship offerings.
Next year, Samsung is bringing the Galaxy S25 series phones. The lineup will pack pro-grade hardware and significant functional refinements. Some incremental attacks like Galaxy Z Fold SE and Galaxy S24 FE are also coming this October.
