One the best-ranked US-based carriers, US Cellular has announced that it will offer two promotions for customers who purchase a Samsung Mesmerize or an LG Optimus U smartphone.

Both promotions are giving away for free five LG Optimus U devices to anyone who buys one of the two Android smartphones mentioned by March 10th.

The Mesmerize, US Cellular's Galaxy S device, can be purchased for just $99.99. The LG Optimus U, the carrier's version of the Optimus One, can be purchased for only $29.99.

In addition, US Cellular also announced that prices for all Android-powered smartphones have been lowered under $100 throughout the promotion period, including the HTC Desire for just $69.99, the LG Apex for $29.99 and the Samsung Acclaim for free.

A similar buy-one-get-five deal is also available for customers who purchase the Samsung Messager Touch for $29.99, as they can get up to five Samsung Profile handsets for free.

One of the carrier's best regarded products, the Belief Project, is also the target of the promotion through March 10th, as new customers who purchase a smartphone with a Belief Plan can get a $100 Smartphone Activation Credit per line.

Furthermore, existing customers who purchase a new smartphone line are also eligible for the promotion.

There are two options available for customers who buy a new smartphone as they can pair it with the Premium Plus Family Plan for $179.99, which includes two lines with unlimited minutes and messaging, 5GB of data per line, Phone Replacement and GPS navigation.

The second option is the carrier's $69.99 Primary Plus Plan that comes with 5GB of data, unlimited text, picture and video messaging, free unlimited incoming calls, nights and weekends, mobile-to-mobile calls and GPS navigation.

All deals are available starting this week through March 10th and target both new and existing customers.
