T-Mobile One, Unlimited Voice, Text and Data.

T-Mobile One

T-Mobile:

The first line is $70 a month, the second is $50 a month, and additional lines are only $20 a month up to 8 lines with auto pay. And it’s just $5 more a month per line without auto pay.

Most T-Mobile are paying under $70 per-month for 1-3 GB data.

You can also add your tablet to T-Mobile ONE for just $20 a tablet per month and get Unlimited LTE data on that device too. That’s the nation’s first and only unlimited LTE data offer for tablets!

For $20, T-Mobile customers don’t have to worry about running up their data. It’s $10 more than what they pay for MatchPhoneData Up to 5GB.

T-Mobile ONE will unleash unlimited on September 6 at T-Mobile stores nationwide and t-mobile.com for postpaid customers.

Somehow that date is really close to an Apple Event.

Tencent acquires Supercell, makers of Clash of Clans.

Clash of Clans

Reuters:

China’s biggest gaming group Tencent Holdings Ltd (0700.HK) is to buy a majority stake in ‘Clash of Clans’ mobile game maker Supercell from SoftBank Group Corp (9984.T) in a deal valued at roughly $8.6 billion.

That’s impressive.

According to Supercell’s blog:

The total equity value of $10.2 billion dollars also recognizes the value of the phenomenal company that our people have built.

Whether it is $8.6 billion or $10.2 billion, Supercell has become one of the major developers of mobile gaming. As of  June 21, 2016, Supercell has 2 games on U.S. iTunes App Store Top Grossing Apps, Clash of Clans and Clash Royale at number 4 and 6, respectively.

What’s really interesting from Supercell’s blog:

Tencent’s people seem to love games as much as we do. In fact, in one of my meetings with Martin (their President), he had just dropped out from Clash Royale global top-100 players

The President of Tencent likes Supercell games so much, he acquires the company.

Currently Supercell has four games:

  • Clash of Clans
  • Hay Day
  • Boom Beach
  • Clash Royale

watchOS 3: Find My Apple Watch

Find My Apple Watch

I don’t remember if “Find My Apple Watch” was mentioned during the WWDC 2016 Keynote.

The first generation of Apple Watch has Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for connectivity, that means for “Find My Apple Watch” to work, it has to be within the Bluetooth proximity and/or connected to known Wi-Fi.
