T-Mobile today announced the launch of new streaming service options that include TVision LIVE, VIBE, and CHANNELS, all of which work with a new TVision Hub.
TVision LIVE is priced between $40 and $60 per month and offers up live news, sports, and other content along with on-demand TV shows and 100 hours of cloud DVR. Full details on all of the available channels can be found on T-Mobile's website.
TVision VIBE is priced at $10 per month and offers over 30 channels from the "most-watched networks on TV" with thousands of shows on demand. TVision Channels allows users to create their own unique mix of channels by subscribing to existing services through T-Mobile at prices starting at $5.99 per month, with support for STARZ, SHOWTIME, and EPIX at launch.
According to T-Mobile, TVision is available exclusively to T-Mobile postpaid customers, with TVision content available on Apple and Android mobile devices, Apple TV, smart TVs, and the TVision HUB, T-Mobile's version of a TV dongle complete with remote.
As a perk for TVision subscribers, T-Mobile is offering customers who sign up for the TVision Live TV+ or Live Zone options ($50 and $60 per month, respectively) a free year's subscription of Apple TV+ along with an option to purchase an Apple TV 4K for $99, which is an $80 savings after a rebate.
TVision launches on November 1, and the Apple TV+ deal is available starting on that date through December 31.

With the iPhone 15 series, I did an experiment and kept my iPhone's Charge Limit set at 80 percent for an entire year. It provided an interesting look at the impact of charge limits on battery longevity, so I decided to repeat it for the iPhone 16 line.
Since September 2024, my iPhone 16 Pro Max has been limited to an 80 percent charge, with no cheating. As of today, my battery's maximum...

Excellent! I was just thinking about the lack of steaming services and how we need more companies in this space. I'm not yet able to spend $300 per month!
Competition is good... give the cable monopoly a run for their money
Unfortunately they’re offering basically the same thing as the cable company, with pricing starting in the $30-$40 range, for something you want, bundled with a lot of crap you don’t. If they’d offer a la carte and let me get just a couple of channels I do want (not sports, not premium) for $10-$20, I might be interested. Until that becomes a possibility these are all just a rehash of cable services, which many of us left for a reason.
