    Accessories Best S5 extended battery case

    Anybody have any thoughts on S5 extended battery cases? I used to have a ZeroLemon battery case on my S3 that worked flawlessly. I have read many different things on the 2 versions for the S5 however. I'm especially not crazy how there is no back speaker opening on them. That and I'm afraid the...

    T-Mobile domestic data roaming

    So me and my wife both have phones through T-Mobile's Unlimited 2 Line/100 dollar plan. It says supposedly there's international data roaming and text included in this plan. But I haven't seen anything about domestic roaming? Does anybody know if this is included with their unlimited plans?

    Metro PCS 30 dollar plan

    So I went into a Metro dealer yesterday and asked him if I could activate my Samsung Galaxy Light phone under their 30 dollar plan and he said no. He told me that the 30 dollar plan is only available with certain phones and this isn't one of them. Is that true? That seems a little bogus to me...

    What should I do...

    So I'm currently using a T-Mobile branded S3 on Metro PCS. I get the exact same coverage as I did with T-Mobile. I was thinking about signing back up with T-Mobile to get a Galaxy Note 4 under zero down. Being so expensive though... Is it really worth it? Also considering how much higher...

    I was thinking about getting the S5 for T-Mobile... It says on their website though that it comes with Android 4.4.2... And I hear there's lots if issues with that. Is that just the stock version and can I update to a newer version once I get the phone?
