T-Mobile US are giving Away phones for Valentine’s Day: FREE!

What’s the catch?
Perhaps Cupid shot T-Mobile’s PR department in the backside?


Haha, whatever happened, T-Mobile have decided to make all of their phones free for February 11 and 12, as part of a Valentine’s Day deal. The offer applies to all phones, even their fastest 4G smartphones.


Wondering what the catch is? Too right, because T-Mobile would have to be crazy to give away smartphones and get nothing in return.  The catch, quite simply, is that you must ink a 2-year deal with the wireless carrier, which is something most smartphone buyers do anyway.
The goal of the promotion is to reach a larger market with their data plans.  Often, people may be able to afford the monthly fee but cannot afford the initial cost of the phone.
This could however, backfire, as people who can afford neither may opt for the free phone but may be unable to make the monthly payments.


T-Mobile is a German mobile wireless carrier and the 10th largest in the world.  Its smartphone offerings include the Android-powered T-Mobile G2, T-Mobile myTouch 4G, and Samsung Vibrant, the BlackBerry Curve, the HTC HD7, and many others.
Will you spread the love this year by getting your ‘free’ phone?!

If you want to share the love with T-Mobile on Valentine’s Day, you will have to marry them first.
