Twas the night before Christmas, smartphone in hand. A shiny new app? Well that would be grand!

If you’re an android user, keen to give Google Play Music a go, or if you just want to see what the music streaming buzz is all about, head to Google Play now!

Google is offering a three-month subscription to their music service for the holidays, for only one dollar! If you know someone who’s switching to android, or who’s receiving a shiny new android phone then this is the deal for them. Unfortunately only for new subscribers, the subscription comes with YouTube Red, for ad-free videos and background playback. Head over to Google Play to make sure your location is included, as the $1 deal is accessible only in certain countries!

Added to this offer, is the opportunity to get 75% off a movie rental, 50% off one album of your choice, and many other great deals including sales on games, books and apps! There’s no catches on the half price album, which covers the US, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Germany, France, Japan, Mexico, Russia, the UK and all genres from Classical to Metal! Be sure to take advantage before the 4th January 2016!

Also in Android news, Vodafone is offering Wifi-Calling to Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge users in the UK, so now if you have limited mobile signal, there’s no problem as the function can be done over Wifi! No doubt this great addition will continue to be rolled out gradually to other networks, but if you’re a Vodafone android user, text CALLING to 97888 to be opted in. Some handsets already have this feature enabled, so head over to EE for more information.
