It’s finally time to upgrade that trusty old phone if you rely on T-Mobile’s Wi-Fi Calling 1.0<\/p>\n As technology progresses at the speed of light, that means carriers and phone makers can only do so much to continue supporting older devices. We’ve seen a renewed commitment<\/a> by the likes of Samsung and Google to support phones for at least three years, which is a far cry from the days of only seeing one major software update and few security updates.<\/p>\n Today, T-Mobile announced<\/a> a few casualties as the Uncarrier moves away from Wi-Fi Calling 1.0, which launched in 2015. Owners of select devices began receiving text messages from T-Mobile stating that as of May 31st, Wi-Fi calling would no longer be supported. This move comes as no surprise as all of the latest and best T-Mobile phones<\/a> use newer versions of Wi-Fi Calling, so T-Mobile is deprecating the old version.<\/p>\n The list of affected devices is not very long, as it currently stands at 13 devices and includes the likes of the Nexus 6, Galaxy S III LTE, and even the Microsoft Lumia 640.<\/p>\n T-Mobile was quick to note that these devices would continue to function and are still compatible with the network. However, Wi-Fi Calling will no longer be available starting on May 31st. Instead, T-Mobile suggests that it’s time to take advantage of some of the carrier’s current deals to upgrade to one of the latest and best Android phones<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n $1,200 at T-Mobile<\/a><\/p>\n Get the latest and greatest Samsung Galaxy from T-Mobile.<\/p>\n The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra is easily the best phone now available through T-Mobile.
