T-Mobile & Verizon will both offer Samsung Gear S2
Samsung Gear S2 will soon be offered by both T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless and preorders for the much awaited wearable device will begin soon.
Verizon had already started to accept preorders for the Gear S2 and has a few pricing options. A two-year contract comes with a $299.99 or AU$413 option while an off-contract deal will be tied to a $349.99 or AU$482 option, said Tech Times. The Gear S2 deal with Verizon also makes monthly data, text and calls possible.
For T-Mobile, however, preorders haven’t started as of yet. But T-Mobile subscribers can begin to sign-up to obtain more data about Gear S2. T-Mobile is offering the device at $359.99 or AU$495.78 as its full retail price.
Those that don’t want to get the device via retail can avail of the carrier's monthly payment plan at $15 or AU$20.66 for 23 months. The 24th month, which is the final month, will only see a $14.99 or AU$20.64 payment.
T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless also offer a $5 or AU$6.89 monthly contract for users who already have an existing plan with them.
"For just $5 per month, T-Mobile customers can call, tweet, and email on the go with unlimited talk, text, and data -- all directly from your wrist -- while on our network, up to 500 MB of high speed data," T-Mobile stated.
Since Gear S2 is already available with Verizon, their customers can already begin to buy the device online. Plus, Gear S2 will also be physically available in stores on November 6. Tech users under T-Mobile, meanwhile, can get the unit starting on November 15, according to Phandroid.
Gear S2 is compatible with devices running on Android 4.4 and later OS updates. It’s recommended that the smartwach be used with Samsung's Galaxy devices for better results.
