10.5-inch premium tablet available this week
CHICAGO (Nov. 24, 2014) – U.S. Cellular (NYSE: USM) has announced that the Samsung Galaxy Tab® S 10.5 will be available tomorrow online and in stores. Samsung's premium tablet will be available in Titanium Bronze and Dazzling White, and qualified customers can add it to their Shared Connect plan for just $10 per month and pay no money down in store using U.S. Cellular’s retail installment option.
The Galaxy Tab S is Samsung’s thinnest and lightest tablet, and customers who purchase it from U.S. Cellular get national coverage and a high-quality network that works wherever they want to go. By the end of the year, more than 93 percent of U.S. Cellular customers will be covered by a 4G LTE network.
“As we enter the holiday season, this is a great device for keeping kids entertained while traveling to family gatherings or for multi-tasking to get your work done faster,” said Joe Settimi, vice president of marketing for U.S. Cellular. “We want to help families simplify their lives during this busy season, so we provide the best devices with a network that works where you live, work and play.”
The Galaxy Tab S combines its thin and light design with a Super AMOLEDTM display that has twice the pixels of an HDTV for the ultimate viewing experience. The 10.5-inch screen makes it a great tablet for multi-tasking, and with Multi WindowTM, you can have two apps open at the same time or simultaneously email and watch a video.
