14 DAY TRIAL // Canadians should expect to be able to purchase the Samsung Galaxy S III beginning June 20. At least that’s what regional carrier Videotron says.
Thanks to the folks over at MobileSyrup, we now have some details on the smartphone’s pricing options. Best Buy Canada appears to have just listed the pebble blue and marble white versions of the 16GB Samsung Galaxy S III and to have put a price tag on them as well.
Keep in mind that customers will have to pay a standard pre-order price of $50 CAD if they want to make sure they will get the phone as soon as it becomes available.
According to Best Buy, Rogers will offer the cheapest Samsung Galaxy S III at only $149.99 CAD, while TELUS and Virgin Mobile Canada will sell the device for $159.99 CAD. SaskTel customers will be able to purchase the Galaxy S III for $169.99 CAD.
Obviously, all deals require customers to commit to a new three-year agreement. Even though Best Buy does not offer a no-term price for the Samsung Galaxy S III, MobileSyrup claims the smartphone might go on sale for a suggested retail price of $649.99 CAD.
There are still some carriers that will have to reveal their pricing options for Samsung’s third-generation Galaxy S smartphone, but the general idea is that the device won’t cost more than $160 CAD on contract.
Even though rumors point to a $649.99 CAD no-term price for the Samsung Galaxy S III, there’s no telling which carrier will offer it for this amount.
Last but not least, Bell Canada has already confirmed it will carry the Samsung Galaxy S III and the smartphone has been listed by Best Buy, but there are no price tags attached to it for the moment. Stay tuned for more updates on the matter.
