BGR has partnered with The Points Guy for our coverage of credit card products. BGR and The Points Guy may receive a commission from card issuers.

Please note: the offers mentioned below are subject to change at any time and some may no longer be available.

One of the easiest ways for credit card issuers to grab your interest is by dangling a lucrative welcome bonus, one that promises the instant gratification of lots of rewards miles right up front, as well as points or some other perk as an immediate thank-you gift for signing up.

Of course, that shouldn’t necessarily be the main factor you consider when weighing all the different options for cards you’re confronted with. But sometimes the offers are so big, so near-unheard-of, that they demand attention all by themselves — and one such pair of sign-up bonuses (the biggest of 2018, in fact) is back, just in time for the end of this year. The cards we’re talking about are Capital One’s two Spark business cards: The Capital One® Spark® Miles for Business and Capital One® Spark® Cash for Business. If you’ve been on the fence about applying for one of these or even just for a new card in general, perhaps this might clear things up for you — one of those cards is offering a welcome bonus of up to 200,000 miles for signing up and hitting the requisite spending targets. Here’s everything you need to know.

There’s not going to be a ‘Back to the Future 4’

%name There’s not going to be a ‘Back to the Future 4’ by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The entertainment industry can create movies and TV shows unlike anything we’ve ever seen thanks to the incredible advancements of technology. But just as computers become smarter and more powerful, capable of generating complex action sequences and all sorts of special effects, we’re witnessing a rather annoying trend.

Too many ideas are rehashed and readapted, and we have too many sequels. That’s why Matrix and Ghostbusters were revived, why Disney turned several of its iconic animated movies into live-action films, and why Martin Scorsese is making the same mobster movie while criticizing superhero movie makers for repeating the same stunts over and over. And why the latest Star Wars trilogy might prove to be more fan service than innovative storytelling, at least if all those leaks turn out to be correct. With that in mind, I’m kind of thrilled to hear there’s not going to be a Back to the Future 4, as much as I’d have wanted one a few years ago.

5G was supposed to be a game-changer this year, but the truth is that 5G coverage remains effectively non-existent for the vast majority of mobile users in the United States. What’s more, the number of 5G-enabled phones even available for purchase isn’t exactly an extensive list.

But with 2020 right around the corner, we’re starting to see an uptick in 5G coverage from a number of carriers. AT&T, for example, launched 5G coverage across 10 U.S. cities today, a list which includes Milwaukee, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Birmingham, Indianapolis, Providence, Rochester, San Diego, San Francisco, and San Jose.

The Netflix original series The Crown is basically an awards-generating machine at this point for the streaming service. The lavishly-produced, compulsively watchable show about the lives and loves (and secrets) of the British royals has just helped Netflix garner a record haul of Golden Globes nods, with the current third season of The Crown pulling in four nominations announced earlier this week — more than the series earned during both previous seasons (three nominations in Season 1, and two in Season 2).

Samsung refutes its own executive’s claim of one million Galaxy Folds sold

Well, it seems there’s one more bit of news related to Samsung’s much-maligned Galaxy Fold handset that we’re likely going to end the year on. And for many of you who’ve followed along as Samsung made its first foray into foldable smartphones, this will seem like par for the course when it comes to how Samsung has handled the … well, let’s just say the bumpy rollout of the Galaxy Fold this year.

We told you just yesterday about Samsung Electronics president Young Sohn’s assertion at a TechCrunch event that Samsung has improbably managed to sell 1 million units of the Galaxy Fold so far — a massive achievement no matter how you look at it, considering the phone’s $1,980 price tag. Not to mention the botched launch, all the early flaws and design misfires that showed up in the first units, the surprising fragility of the device, and more. Except, not so fast! Just one day later, Samsung found itself in the unfortunate position of having to walk back that declaration of 1 million Galaxy Fold sales, with a company spokesman acknowledging that figure is not accurate.
