Telecom Celebrates Launch of Samsung Galaxy S4 with Giveaway
Telecom Celebrates Launch of Samsung Galaxy S4 with
Up to $5 Million Samsung Galaxy Data
Giveaway
Telecom is celebrating the launch
of the Samsung Galaxy S4 on its Smartphone Network by giving
away up to $5 million worth of Samsung Galaxy data to New
Zealanders.
That equates to the uploading of
around 128 million photos to Facebook or watching your
favourite YouTube clip on your mobile approximately 51
million times.
Telecom’s Head of Consumer, Chris
Thompson, says New Zealand will be one of the first
countries in the world to get the Samsung Galaxy S4, which
launches globally on Saturday 27 April, and that its arrival
calls for an appropriate ‘data-centric’
celebration.
“Smartphones are a huge part of our
lives now and data - as the new ‘digital currency’- is
what our customers tell us they value. So what better way to
celebrate the launch of this extraordinary new smartphone
than with a massive Samsung Galaxy data
giveaway.”
The up to $5 million Samsung Galaxy
Data Giveaway is available to those postpaid customers who
purchase the Samsung Galaxy S4 on the Telecom Smartphone
Network before 30 June, 2013. Postpaid Customers who
purchase the Galaxy S4 – provided they do so online - will
receive an extra 1GB of data per month for 12 months, and
there will also be a special data offer in Telecom stores
for those postpaid customers who switch to Telecom from
another network when they purchase the Galaxy
S4.
Everyone who purchases the Galaxy S4 on the
Telecom Smartphone Network will also go into the draw to win
one of three big prizes of up to 500GB free data every month
for the duration of their 24-month plan.
The
Samsung Galaxy S4 has a number of compelling new features,
including a larger and higher resolution 5-inch screen, dual
cameras – which allow use of the front and rear cameras
simultaneously - and the S Translator feature, which allows
users to chat with friends in multiple languages by
automatically translating the conversation to the user’s
language.
Mr Thompson says global interest in the
Samsung Galaxy S4 means stock at launch may be limited. He
is encouraging customers who want to get their hands on the
new smartphone, and take advantage of the data offer, to do
so soon, either online or in-store.
On launch
customers can visit one of 34 Telecom stores around the
country to purchase a Galaxy S4. Alternatively, they can
purchase directly online.
