14 DAY TRIAL // Mobile phone carrier T-Mobile USA has just announced the upcoming availability of a new Samsung smartphone on its airwaves, the Galaxy S 4G, which will be released exclusively on its network.
The new Samsung Galaxy S 4G is set to become the fastest smartphone running on its 4G network, T-Mobile says.
The new mobile phone comes with Google's Android 2.2 operating system on board, while also offering support for the carrier's HSPA+ network.
According to T-Mobile, the forthcoming Galaxy S 4G should offer support for theoretical peak download speeds of up to 21 Mbps on its airwaves, “delivering rich entertainment experiences at even faster speeds through its brilliant Super AMOLED touch screen display.”
The new mobile phone would arrive on shelves as the second Galaxy S device on T-Mobile's offering, following the release of Samsung Vibrant in 2010.
“With Galaxy S 4G, T-Mobile will deliver its fastest smartphone yet on America’s largest 4G network, providing rich entertainment virtually whenever and wherever consumers want,” said Cole Brodman, chief marketing officer, T-Mobile USA.
“And with 4G data plans from $10 per month, we’re making blazing-fast 4G speeds and super smartphone experiences easily accessible to the millions who crave them.”
The new handset adds to a series of 4G-capable smartphones that are already available for purchase from the carrier, including the T-Mobile myTouch 4G, or the T-Mobile G2.
T-Mobile has deployed its 4G network in a number of 100 major metropolitan areas in the United States, and can offer coverage to a number of around 200 million users.
“With aggressive plans to expand and double the speed of its 4G network in 2011, T-Mobile expects that 140 million Americans in 25 major metropolitan areas will have access to these increased 4G speeds by midyear,” the carrier notes.
