Carrier Pricing Released for the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge

Whenever there’s a press conference in which a company announces a new device, the first questions asked by the public always seem to be: “When will it be available?” and “How much will it cost?” Since we already known that the new Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge will be arriving in stores April 10th, it’s now time to find out how much Samsung will be taking from our wallets as well.

The top five carriers have all announced that they will carry both models, and all but Sprint have released their pricing models.

Verizon

Availability: Verizon has only stated that pre-orders for the S6 and S6 Edge will begin April 1st.

Colors:  Verizon will carry Black Sapphire and White Pearl models of each.

Pricing:

  • Galaxy S6
    • Edge: $24.99 (32GB), $29.16 (64GB), $33.33 (128GB) for 24 months
    • 2-year contract: $199.99 (32GB), $299.99 (64GB), $399.99 (128GB) after $50 mail-in rebate

T-Mobile

Availability: Pre-orders start March 27th and the phone will be available in stores on April 10th. T-Mobile claims that if you pre-order, you will receive you phone “before the devices go on sale in stores.” So if you choose to pre-order either the S6 or S6 Edge, you should have it before April 10th.

Colors:  T-Mobile will have the White Pearl and Black Sapphire models of both the S6 and S6 Edge available for pre-order on March 27th. The Gold Platinum edition of both phones will be available as soon as they get inventory, which they expect to be “no later than April 10th.”

  • Galaxy S6 Edge 128GB – $199.99 down + $31.66/month x 24 months, $959.83

Bonus:  T-Mobile customers who order either phone before April 12th can receive a 1-year Netflix subscription for free

Colors:  Sprint will carry Black Sapphire, White Pearl, and Gold Platinum models.

Lease option:  Sprint is running a “free” phone lease for the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge. You can get an S6 at no cost if you sign a 24-month lease on the phone (they’ll give you a $20/month credit), and also sign-up for their Sprint Unlimited plan at $80 per month (unlimited talk, text, data). If you want the Galaxy S6 Edge, you are looking at $85 per month.

US Cellular

Other retailers (Bestbuy, Target, Sam’s Club, Prepaid carriers) should be carrying either one or both of the devices but we’ll be focusing on the big five for the time being, unless we get word of an awesome deal going on.
