There is so much love out there for T-Mobile’s ‘Binge On Up’
Sure, it was just an April Fools’ prank, but a lot of people certainly had fun with it. Last April 1, T-Mobile introduced Binge On Up (together with Binge John), a headband that mobile users can use to mount their smartphones on, basically giving their hands all the freedom while letting them enjoy watching endless streaming of video content all day. As part of its Uncarrier 10 campaign, the announcement of the Binge On Up headband aimed to relieve T-Mobile subscribers suffering from injuries sustained as a result of “distracted walking, Netflix Neck and YouTubular Degeneration due to longer binge-watching sessions.”
And now, T-Mobile has compiled tweets of various people having fun with Binge On Up:
