As if the excitement surrounding the new Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge smartphones is not enough to help drive sales, AT&T is offering to throw a new television set in the mix subject to certain requirements. The TV is a Samsung 48-inch LED model that normally retails for $450. To take advantage of this deal, consumers have to buy one of Samsung’s new flagship smartphones using an AT&T Next plan and activate a new AT&T line or new DIRECTV service.
AT&T Next is the carrier’s financing tool for mobile device purchases. Buyers can opt for payment plans of 12, 18 or 24 months before completing their commitment and being eligible for an upgrade. Meanwhile, DIRECTV service starts at $29.99 per month for 12 months, but does require a 24 month commitment.
In addition to adding a new line of wireless service or DIRECTV service, buyers do have to have the other service already in place so that at the end of the day they have both DIRECTV and wireless service through AT&T. However, only one has to be new service to qualify for the deal.
If you decide to take up AT&T on this offer, which will be available starting on April 1st, be sure to finish the process by visiting the special web site setup for qualifying buyers and then wait for delivery of your new TV.
