Mobile phone carrier T-Mobile has announced a new buy one get one promotion for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S7 and the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge need no help in shifting units, as the two upcoming Android handsets have already garnered plenty of attention on their own. The successors to last year's also highly successful smartphones the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, the two S7 devices offer 4GB of RAM paired with the Snapdragon 820 processor , 12 megapixel and 5 megapixel cameras and a microSD slot.
Outside of North America, the processor is the Exynos 8890 processor. The S7 Edge's display also has curved edges.
Soon, smartphone buyers will have even more of a reason to pick them up as T-Mobile is set to launch a buy one get one deal, PhoneArena reported. First, the buyer purchases a 32GB Samsung Galaxy S7 in either Onyx Black or Gold Platinum for $0 and a $27.92 a month line for 24 months or a 32GB Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge in Black Onyx, Silver Titanium or Gold Platinum for $59.99 down and $30 for 24 months.
Then, they can pick out another Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge handset and get the full retail price of the lower-priced device as a prepaid debit card via online rebate or the S7 Edge, if the buyer chooses to get two Edge handsets . The S7 and S7 Edge's retail prices are $669.99 and $779.99, respectively.
Moreover, those who pick up a Samsung Galaxy S7 on a "qualifying plan" will be able to get a Gear VR bundle that includes the headset and six games, and T-Mobile will also throw in a free year of Netflix too. The carrier estimates that this package is worth a $250 and it also says that the promotion "will last for a limited time, while supplies last".
The deal will certainly look appealing to those with a family member who is also looking to pick up the Samsung Galaxy S7, but others will hope that Samsung has enough units to cope with demand. The South Korean electronics company is set to produce 17.2 million units of S7 handsets over the next three months, according to Android Authority. It has yet to be seen whether that lofty number proves to be high enough.
