Samsung’s flagship Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone is being offered with steep discounts from carriers and online retailers. Check out the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals on the device.
Amazon is offering the Galaxy S5 for $1 with 2-year contract with any wireless carrier. Best Buy, Radio Shack and Walmart are also offering similar deals for $1 and free device with the contract. Consumers looking for an off-contract device can purchase it from Sprint and T-Mobile under monthly installment.
Sprint’s Easy Pay program allows consumers to purchase the Galaxy S5 by paying $18.75 for 24 months and the rugged Galaxy S5 can also be availed at the same price. T-Mobile’s program allow consumers to avail the device by paying $21.20 for 24 months. Consumers opting for prepaid connection, can opt for AT&T’s Cricket Wireless to get the device for only $295 instead of the $589.99 price tag.
Target is offering the Galaxy S5 for one cent with a 2-year contract and the deals from most retailers run through Nov. 29. The deals are available in online and retail stores.
Earlier the Galaxy S5 was offered for $199 with two year contract and the $1 deal is definitely worth buying. The premium smartphone comes with a 5.1-inch full HD display, 16MP rear camera and 2MP secondary camera and did not catch up with consumers mainly due to its plastic build. The device is powered by a 2.5GHz Quad-core processor with 2GB RAM and is backed by a 2800mAh battery.
Consumers looking for a premium handset at an affordable price can opt for the Samsung Galaxy S5 or the rugged version for those interested in water sports, this holiday season.
$1 is misleading and it is not the real cost. You are paying the carrier a higher cost for line with the $1 phone and you are stuck for 2 years.
