Verizon Mobile Protect has your phone covered against everyday mishaps

Accidents happen — it’s a fact of life that doesn’t actually make it any easier to swallow when the accident involves a nice, shiny and new smartphone meeting an untimely fate. Then it gets  worse when you’re  faced with the bill for a new phone to replace a phone you might still be paying off. Verizon doesn’t think it should be this way, and its Verizon Mobile Protect* can help you soften the blow if bad things happen. 

Important things deserve protection. Cars get insured, our bodies get insured, and homes get insured. Now you can make sure your smartphone gets insured, too.

Verizon Mobile Protect is an affordable protection option for your smartphone or other eligible devices that can cover you for accidents big and small. It includes features you can use everyday as well as those you want to have ready should the worst happen.

If your smartphone’s screen is cracked, Verizon Mobile Protect will help get it  fixed for only a $29 deductible per claim**  instead of paying full retail price to replace it.. Not only that, you can get the repair done promptly, so you’re not stuck without a phone for a lengthy period of time. If your damaged phone is beyond saving and you decide to upgrade, Verizon Mobile Protect provides same-day delivery and setup*** for new devices purchased on verizon.com, to get you up and running on a new phone in no time.

Verizon Mobile Protect isn’t just about taking care of your smartphone physically. It also includes services you’ll be able to use more regularly. You can get help securing and optimizing your phone’s performance with 24/7 Tech Coach support and 24/7 Security Advisor****. Verizon Mobile Protect also can help protect you with ID theft monitoring and call screening to block spam callers using the included Tech Coach, Digital Secure, and Call Filter apps*****. 

You can get Verizon Mobile Protect for a single line with an eligible device or if you have a larger account,  you can get Verizon Mobile Protect Multi-Device . Single line coverage will add $17/month or $14/month, depending on device type to your monthly Verizon bill. For accounts with 3-10 lines with eligible devices, the plan is $50/month and provides you the ability to protect  up to 3 registered devices on your account every 12 months

You can enroll in Verizon Mobile Protect when you activate a new device or Bring Your Own Device (requires a new line of service) or within 30 days of that activation. However, you can also enroll right now during Verizon’s special open enrollment period running through April 13. This special period provides a rare opportunity to get Verizon Mobile Protect, or any other device protection option, on an eligible device you’re already using as long as your device is in good working order, doesn’t have damage and is free of defects.

And that’s not all that they offer. Verizon’s entire suite of device protection options are available to ensure you peace of mind. To learn more about Verizon Mobile Protect, or any other protection options,  you can visit their page to sign up today.

The latest Apple TV 4K test lets you watch four sports streams at once

Apple is trying something new with the latest beta version of tvOS 16.5: the option to watch up to four simultaneous streams at once. Right now it's limited to live sports streamed through the Apple TV app on the Apple TV 4K , specifically MLB Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass. A multi-view option was spotted in the tvOS software last month, but the code was hidden and not enabled. MacRumors reported that the feature would be enabled this weekend, and beta testers have since been able to use it. As yet multi-view hasn't been officially announced by Apple, but it's expected that tvOS 16.5 is going to be pushed out in its final form within the next month or so. WWDC 2023 is around the corner as well, when we should be hearing about the next major updates for Apple's various operating systems – including tvOS 17. How it works Over at 9to5Mac there's a hands-on demonstrating how the multi-view feature works, and it's pretty much as you would expe...

Quantum computers are fast becoming cheaper and smaller — and they could be coming to a data center near you very soon

IonQ claims we’re closer to widespread enterprise quantum computing deployment as it lifted the lid on two rack-mounted models that can be deployed on-premises.   The startup has built the fourth-generation #AQ35 IonQ Forte Enterprise and fifth-generation #AQ64 IonQ Tempo, both of which are designed to be deployed in enterprise and government data centers. It’s also said it is deploying two quantum computers to the US Air Force.  While revealing these two models, IonQ co-founder and CTO Jungsang Kim said quantum computers are already in use by enterprises to churn through machine learning workloads. This, he added, suggests we’re much closer to readily available and affordable machines. Priming enterprises for a quantum future “We believe in the enterprise-grade quantum computing, which is where it can be something of value for enterprises, can happen in the next few years as we build powerful enough quantum computers that can actually do things that classical computers w...

Nvidia RTX 4080 GPU could get cheaper with a new version – but don’t get your hopes up

Nvidia’s RTX 4080 is purportedly getting a new spin on the GPU which could reduce the cost, but any price reduction will likely be very minor, sadly, if it happens at all. Tom’s Hardware flagged up this rumor – and treat it with caution, as with anything from the ever-spinning mill – that originated from HKEPC (a tech site in Hong Kong), claiming that while the current RTX 4080 graphics card is built on the AD103-300 chip, Nvidia is going to use a slightly different GPU in the future, namely AD103-301. There’s now more evidence this is actually happening, Tom’s points out, courtesy of a graphics card maker, Galax, which under its RTX 4080 product details lists the GPU as ‘AD103-300/301’. Furthermore, VideoCardz , which also picked up on this, informs us that Gainward, another card maker, has also listed the updated GPU variant AD103-301 in its product specs. With two separate third-party graphics card makers mentioning this new spin on the GPU in their specs, it seems pret...
