"Among the measures being modelled behind closed doors are the throttling of data speeds, restricting access during periods of high demand, and charging customers a premium at peak times, a move that would mark a significant departure from the all-you-can-eat tariffs that have dominated the British mobile market for more than a decade."

"Wireless bills have gotten way too complicated and way too expensive. With UnBig Your Bill, Optimum Mobile is putting transparency and affordability front and center. Customers bring us their bill, we do the math together, and either they save with us or we give them $150. It's that simple."

The Honor 600 features a 6.57-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1264x2728, a 120Hz refresh rate, and an 8,000-nit peak brightness, powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC.

The $30 Mobile Select plan covers the main basics, including 50GB of 'premium' full-speed data; Global Travel Pass to cover yourself when traveling in 215 different countries; and Xfinity's Wi-Fi PowerBoost.

Right now when you activate a qualifying Tablet Unlimited Plus plan, you'll get the latest iPad for $99, down from the usual price of $499.

The Poco M8s 5G sports a 6.9-inch LCD display that offers a Full-HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of up to 144Hz, providing an immersive viewing experience.

A total of 289.7 million devices were shipped in the first three months of 2026, representing a 4.1% decline compared to the same period last year.

The age of smartphones that were traded in reached a record high during the 2025 upgrade cycle, according to a new report from Circana and B-Stock. Most of the devices traded in were at least three generations old, yet even older phones are in high demand on a global basis. As of October 2025, nearly 11% of U.S. consumers own a pre-owned smartphone, with almost one-third (30%) of those being certified pre-owned (CPO) models.

Consumers are not passively renewing mobile plans. They are actively evaluating them, comparing value, scrutinizing pricing, and reassessing providers more frequently. Mobile is evolving from a static utility into a dynamic service relationship, and the next era will belong to those who reduce complexity, communicate transparently, and activate seamlessly.

The top-of-the-line Galaxy S26 Ultra is currently available with a £170 discount on the 512GB and 1TB variants. The device is powered by the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chipset and introduces Samsung's new Privacy Display feature, along with a few other minor upgrades.

The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is $300 off at the moment, which makes it cheaper than the Samsung foldable at equal storage levels. The Pixel is down on performance (Tensor G5 vs. Snapdragon 8 Elite), but it does have more RAM than most Z Fold7 configurations (only the 1TB model has 16GB of RAM). The main 48MP camera on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has a disappointingly small 1/2.0" sensor, which looks insufficient next to the 200MP 1/1.3" sensor of the Galaxy.

While Amazon UK's smartphone deals section doesn't feature any standout offers at the moment, there are still some solid discounts available on select devices.

Although that's not much, it's still a decent deal.
