AT&T pre-orders begin for LTE-enabled Galaxy Tab S
If you’ve been holding off on getting the Galaxy Tab S in favor of some LTE-enabled options, AT&T is here to tempt you with a new pre-order for both the 8.4 and 10.5-inch models. The Tab S, which features a gorgeous Super AMOLED display and might just be the best tablet Samsung has ever made, will go on sale via AT&Ts retail channels beginning September 26th.
Pricing starts at $429 when buying the Galaxy Tab S 8.4 with a new AT&T data plan. Without the contract subsidy, the slate retails for $529 (or $26.50 per month). The Galaxy Tab S 10.5 is $100 more at $529 with data contract and $629 without ($31.50 per month). Those pre-ordering the Tab S from AT&T will also be eligible to save 50% on the optional Tab S keyboard attachment.

We were left with quite a positive impression of the Tab S line, which Samsung launched in WiFi-only format earlier this year. It features the aforementioned high resolution Super AMOLED display along with a number of hardware and software features first introduced in Samsung’s popular Galaxy S5 smartphone (including a fingerprint scanner). Sprint currently carriers their own LTE-compatible version of the Galaxy Tab S 10.5 for those looking for other network options.
