The Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G T-Mobile price and release date details have gone live after the carrier announced its upcoming availability. Said to be a T-Mobile exclusive, the smartphone is the latest addition to the network provider’s Galaxy S lineup.
The device will set potential users back by $149.99 following a $50 mail-in rebate as well as new 2-year contract as part of an applicable Classic voice and data plan. Alternately, the handset can be tied to an eligible Value voice and data plan along with a 2-year contract. Customers need to cough up $99.99 as down payment and $20 per month for up to 20 months.
As far as specifications are concerned, the phone runs the Ice Cream Sandwich platform, though we’d like to hope that Jelly Bean may arrive at a later stage. It features a 5-row QWERTY keypad that slides out from beneath the 4-inch Super AMOLED display.
A 5MP camera is fitted to the back panel for snapping up images, while there’s a front-facing 1.3MP sensor for video conferencing over the web. The former is capable of recording clips in HD clarity. Under the hood, a Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 processor clocked at 1.5GHz takes care of all its operations.
In terms of connectivity, the handset offers Wi-Fi calling and mobile hotspot for sharing the network with up to 5 compatible devices. It is also SAFE-approved which means it is packed with enterprise-ready and security attributes. To increase the entertainment quotient, the phone drags along Google Play access, T-Mobile TV and Samsung Media Hub.
Going by the main Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G T-Mobile price and release date information, the smartphone can be picked up for $149.99 on September 19 through the carrier’s online stores and retail outlets.
