14 DAY TRIAL // Australian wireless carrier Telstra is reportedly getting ready for the launch of some appealing new devices on its network, including the Galaxy Note 3 and Xperia Z1, and it might do so come October 15.
No official confirmation on the matter has been provided as of now, but Ausdroid notes that this could indeed happen, based on leaked info coming from an anonymous tipster.
Additionally, the news site claims that Sony’s Xperia Z1 smartphone will arrive on shelves at the carrier with pricing similar to that of Galaxy S4 and HTC One.
Telstra’s business customers could be able to grab the device at $9 (€6.24) per month on a $60 (€41.6) plan, or at $0 per month on others.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3, on the other hand, has already been confirmed to be priced at $8 (€5.54) per month on the $80 (€55.4) Business Performance Plan or the $80 Every Day Connect Plan. It will be priced at $912 (€632) RRP outright.
For those out of the loop, we should note that both Xperia Z1 and Galaxy Note 3 were made official on September 4 during the IFA 2013 conference in Berlin.
Sony’s new flagship, Xperia Z1, arrives on the market with a 5-inch full HD screen, a quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, and 2GB of RAM.
