U.S. Cellular is offering deals on its Android-powered devices just in time for graduation, so families can stay in touch when their star students head off to college or enter the job market. Through June 9, customers can pick up the new Samsung Gem for free after mail-in-rebate or the sleek Samsung Galaxy Tab for $199.99 after mail-in-rebate with a $54.99 monthly data plan.
These cutting-edge devices are backed by the carrier’s unique benefits, like faster phone upgrades without signing new contracts. In addition, a family of four who switches to U.S. Cellular’s Premium Plus family plan can save more than $1,000 a year and join the happiest customers in wireless.
The Samsung Gem features Android 2.2 (Froyo) technology, a 3.2-inch full touch screen and a 3.2 megapixel camera and camcorder that makes it easy to post photos, videos and messages to popular social networking sites. The Samsung Galaxy Tab, with its front and rear facing cameras, can connect families and friends through video chatting. With its vibrant 7-inch screen, the Galaxy Tab is portable enough to carry with one hand, but also big enough to watch movies or read books from anywhere.
“Our Android-powered devices help customers stay organized on-the-go by making it easy to synchronize multiple calendars and keep in touch via text message and e-mail,” said David Kimbell, vice president of marketing for U.S. Cellular. “At U.S. Cellular, we have the phones and plans you want that keep you connected to the people and information that are most important to you, all backed by our high-speed nationwide network that has the highest call quality and network satisfaction of any national carrier.”
Also through June 9, smartphone fans can choose from U.S. Cellular’s array of feature-packed Android-powered devices. The LG Optimus U is $29.99 and the Samsung Mesmerize (a Galaxy S phone) is $149.99 after mail-in-rebates. Both phones feature Swype technology for blazing fast text messaging.
U.S. Cellular’s messaging phones, like the LG Saber, are designed for quick and easy communication with family, friends and coworkers. The LG Saber sports a full QWERTY keypad and is just a penny.
