Of America’s big four carriers, T-Mobile has had by far the closest relationship with Alcatel parent TCL over the past few years, sparking hope of an eventual BlackBerry KEYone launch on Magenta.
In the meantime however, T-Mo has put the oh-so-promising but ultimately unsuccessful Windows 10-powered Alcatel Idol 4S to eternal sleep, with little to no hope of a sequel. In case you didn’t notice, that brings the brand’s device count available on the nation’s leading “Un-Carrier” down to zero, as last year’s dirt-cheap Pop 7 LTE tablet was also discreetly nixed.
