SaskTel selling the Samsung Galaxy S II at $79.99 on a 3-year until August 1st

By on July 22, 2011 at 5:45pm in Mobile News, SaskTel News


Remember a few weeks ago when the official notice dropped that Bell, Virgin and SaskTel would all be releasing the anticipated Samsung Galaxy S II 4G? Bell and Virgin priced this “Superphone” at $169.99 on a 3-year, but SaskTel declared a stunning difference in pricing. In their press release they noted that the “Samsung GALAXY S II is available at any SaskTel Store or SaskTel Authorized Dealer for $79.99 on a three year voice and data term”. Certainly a shocking price.

Over in Saskatchewan today the Galaxy S II officially launched. Some SaskTel stores and dealers have received their stock, but other locations will have to wait until early next week (best to call your local store and ask). Now about that 3-year contract price… it’s true! We’ve been informed the $79.99 price is a special promo until August 1st, afterwards it’s going to increase “to a new price to be determined”. Other price points are $249.99 on a 2-year, $449.99 on a 1-year and $619.99 outright.

Nice work SaskTel!

    • Even the 1 year price point is decent. It scales reasonably well. Unlike the Big 3. where it’s $50 off for 1 year, $100 for $2 years, or $400-500 for 3 years…

    • You are right! The 2 years price point doesn’t look too bad. I would consider it if I have the extra money.

  6. played around with the demo at a bell store.

    i’ve switched over to wp7 recently, but damn it’s a really nice handset.

    hopefully the rumors are true and samsung will release a wp7 variant of the sgs2

  7. I really wish the big 3 price points were like that cuz I usually change my phone every 2 years and the Sasktel 2 year deal is awesome.

  8. some locations came up empty. Apparently the big storm that hit the north of Sask also cause a delay in the delivery truck. Supposed to be in tomorrow on some locations.

  11. I didn’t know SaskTel ran under its own network. They should expand over here to Alberta. :D

    AlbTel anyone?

  12. If Sakstel can do it @ 79.99, why can’t Bell match it?

  16. believe it or not but sask is the most competitive market when it comes to plans and phones we generally pay less and get more perks from the carriers than the rest of the country
