Another handset is burrowing its way into the pre-paid market and customers are certainly ready to flock over. Big ‘ole Walmart and the nation’s fourth-largest carrier, T-Mobile, announced this afternoon that customers with cost in mind (aren’t we all) will be able to pick up the Galaxy S II off-contract for only $299. As for a plan to accompany the year-old handset, customers will be able to get 100 minutes of talk, unlimited texts and 5GB of T-Mobile’s 4G data for only $30 a month. Of course, being off-contract means no monthly fees, which is certainly welcomed. However, if you are not held down too much by cost, we suggest you hit up the Galaxy Nexus directly from Google and go with T-Mobile’s up coming $30 a month plan that features unlimited data. You will definitely get a better phone. If a month-to-month plan sounds better, nothing should stop you from going after Walmart’s latest offering. Check out the full press release below:
Today, T-Mobile and Walmart announced a national retail exclusive of the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S™ II as a no annual contract kitted option, providing a premium smartphone experience at a discounted price for no annual contract customers. Now available, the Galaxy S II costs $299.00 when paired with a T-Mobile Monthly4G no annual contract plan of $30 per month or higher.
The Monthly4G $30 per month plan offers unlimited Web, with the first 5 GB at up to 4G speeds; unlimited text; and 100 minutes of talk, with 10 cents per minute after the first 100 minutes. In addition, Monthly4G plans require no annual contract, no credit check and no deposit, offering great value and flexibility to customers.
With the addition of the Galaxy S II to the lineup of no annual contract devices offered at Walmart, customers have access to premium devices, fast nationwide 4G network speeds and affordable service plan prices – all without an annual contract.
The Galaxy S II is also available through Walmart’s Family Mobile service, a monthly, no-annual-contract wireless plan powered by T-Mobile’s nationwide network. The Walmart Family Mobile Unlimited Talk, Text and Web plan is $45 per month for the first line and $35 per month for additional lines, and provides unlimited access to Web surfing, data and social media for all lines on the account (base plan includes the first 250MB per month at up to 3G speeds). Available at Walmart stores nationwide and on Walmart.com, Walmart Family Mobile was designed with families in mind and is one of the best value options available on any national carrier.
