Android enthusiasts in the United States rejoice, as Samsung Galaxy S 4 is about to hit shelves next week.

Although all four major carriers in the country confirmed they would offer the smartphone, T-Mobile USA is the only one to announce when exactly the Galaxy S 4 goes on sale.

However, it looks like new information on the availability of the flagship smartphone in the US has just emerged and suggests T-Mobile won’t be the first mobile operator to launch it.

For those unaware, the Magenta carrier confirmed the Galaxy S 4 would be available for purchase on its airwaves beginning May 1.

PhoneArena has just been tipped on the possible release of the phone at AT&T, which is set to April 26. The information is confirmed via a Staples memo, which suggests AT&T version of Galaxy S 4 will be available for purchase from April 26.

There are no details on the phone’s pricing options at Staples, but the memo clearly states that this is a tentative launch date so it’s subject to change.

AT&T has already announced Samsung Galaxy S 4 16GB will be available for purchase for $200/€150 with new two-year agreements, while the 32GB has been priced at $250/€190.

The Staples memo also confirms once again that T-Mobile’s Galaxy S 4 will hit shelves on May 1, while Verizon’s variant will not be available for purchase until May 30.

Keep in mind that these release dates are available for Staples and not for the carriers, so Verizon might start selling the Galaxy S 4 earlier than May 30.

On a side note, T-Mobile’s Galaxy S 4 16GB will cost only $100/€75, but customers will have to pay monthly installments of $20/€15 for 24 months. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming availability of the Galaxy S 4 in the United States.
