T-Mobile Announces ‘Magenta Saturday’ Holiday Sale
Picking up a new smartphone this holiday season for yourself or a loved one? Can’t hurt to check out the just-announced Magenta Saturday sale. Bucking the institution, T-Mobile has decided to forego Black Friday in favor of their own colored day of deals on top mobile devices. The sale will feature devices like the HTC Amaze 4G , Samsung Galaxy S II, and T-Mobile G-Slate for as low as $49.99.
The catch? The initial cost for the device is considered a down payment, and an additional monthly fee of $10 to $20 will be assessed to pay off the handset in full. The low prices also come after the benefit of mail-in rebates ranging from $50 to $250. All devices will be available with TMo’s $49.99 per month unlimited talk, text, and data plan. Check out the press release for all the details.
