T-Mobile is currently offering a free Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 7 tablet to customers who take out a new tablet plan, as part of its back to school promotion. All you will have to pay is the cost of the data plan and the sales tax on the tablet.

The OneTouch PIXI 7 is an entry level tablet, but is perfectly suitable for day to day tasks. The tablet comes with a 7-inch LCD display with 1024×600 resolution, a 1.2GHz dual-core MediaTek MT8117 SoC, 1GB of RAM, 2840mAh battery and two VGA resolution cameras, one on the front and one on the back. The PIXI 7 also features a rather limited 8GB of internal storage, but comes with a microSD card slot which can expand the storage by a further 32GB.

To make use of your new data plan, the PIXI 7 also supports 4G LTE data speeds. The tablet usually retails with a price tag of $168.

The deal is an exclusive for existing T-Mobile customers from today and will be open to new customers starting on August 19th. The offer will continue to run until T-Mobile runs out of stock.
