MetroPCS Now Selling Samsung Galaxy S 4


Attention, MetroPCS customers. If you're in the market for a new Android smartphone, we have good news.

The no-contract wireless carrier on Monday added the Samsung Galaxy S 4 to its 4G smartphone lineup. The popular phone is available through MetroPCS in select cities for $549 and can be paired with any of the carrier's no-annual-contract 4G service plans, which start at $40 per month for unlimited data, talk, and text.

At this point it looks like MetroPCS is only offering the phone in its brick-and-mortar stores in Atlanta; Boston; Dallas - Ft. Worth; Hartford, Conn.; Las Vegas; New York; Philadelphia; and San Francisco. Additional markets and online availability will be announced "soon," the company said.

"Providing choice and flexibility for consumers means offering premium smartphones without the costly service and a long-term contract," Tom Keys, MetroPCS COO, said in a statement. "By combining the Galaxy S 4 and affordable nationwide 4G service plans ? we are truly enabling our customers to have it all."

Samsung's latest flagship smartphone boasts a 5-inch, 1080p Super AMOLED HD screen with 441 pixels per inch and 1,920-by-1,080 resolution. It runs an enhanced version of Google's Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with a 1.9-GHz quad-core processor. Other specs include a 13-megapixel rear camera, 2-megapixel front camera, and HSPA+/LTE connectivity where coverage is available.

Regional carrier C Spire will also begin offering the Galaxy S 4 today for $199.99 with a two-year contract.

In other mobile news, Samsung has struck a deal with Wi-Fi provider Boingo to offer one year of free Wi-Fi access in North America to Galaxy Tab 3 and Galaxy Note 8 Wi-Fi users. Those who purchase one of these tablets can access Boingo's more than 35,000 hotspots in the United States, Canada, and Mexico by registering for Samsung's Galaxy Perks program.
