T-Mobile Offers One Free Year Of Netflix For Buying A Samsung Galaxy S6

This article is more than 9 years old.

Today T-Mobile announced that its customers will get one year of Netflix for free if they buy the Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 Edge. Perhaps this may be a better reason to buy the Galaxy S6 from T-Mobile rather than the other carriers. T-Mobile's promotional offer is equal to the value of 12 months of Netflix’s standard “2 Stream” subscription plan at $8.99 per month. 

The global launch of the Galaxy S6 line of smartphones is scheduled for April 10th, but T-Mobile has not revealed its pre-order date yet. Both  AT&T  and Sprint have not announced when they will offer the Galaxy S6 either. Now that T-Mobile has launched an incentive program for the Galaxy S6, its pre-order announcement must be imminent. Verizon is the only carrier in the U.S. that has confirmed its date for Galaxy S6 pre-orders. Verizon said its pre-orders for the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge starts on April 1st.

“When you buy the powerful new Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge from T-Mobile you get 1 year of Netflix on us with access to their entire streaming library - a $100+ value! Want the Galaxy S6 from T-Mobile, but trapped by your current carrier?” says T-Mobile in its Galaxy S6 pre-registration website. “Now T-Mobile will pay off your phone payments. Stuck in a contract? We’ll pay that too. So you can switch to T-Mobile and trade-up to the Galaxy S6 as soon as it’s available. Register today and we’ll let you know when you can buy your Galaxy S6 and get a year of Netflix on us!”

Here is a screenshot of a tweet that T-Mobile CEO John Legere sent out about the promotion:

T-Mobile's Netflix offer has limited redemption codes so you may want to jump on this offer quickly. In the fine print of T-Mobile's promotional page, it says that the Netflix offer will be available between March 27th and April 9th.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 has a 5.1-inch qHD display, an Exynos 7420 processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB/64GB/128GB storage options, a 16-megapixel rear camera, a 5-megapixel front-facing camera and Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system. What is the difference between the Galaxy S6 and the S6 edge? The S6 Edge looks more modern because it has a curved panel on the left- and the right-side of the device. The panel on the Galaxy S6 is flat. The curves on the Edge also offers unique functionalities like “Information Stream,” “Night Clock,” “Edge Lightning” and “People Edge.”
