Aside from T-Mobile, it is also confirmed that AT&T will now be offering the new Samsung Gear S3 Frontier, at a $249 price tag.
AT&T has actually announced that the new Samsung flagship wearable will be available from the mobile carrier, with pre-orders going live as early as Nov. 4. The new smartwatch will start shipping out to its users starting this week.
Already listed on the AT&T website, the new wearable is available starting at $249. It is also offered for existing AT&T subscribers for $49.99 in a two-year plan, and as an add-on for a Samsung Galaxy smartphone on the carrier's Next and Next Every Year plans. The new smartwatch is also being offered as an accessory for AT&T Installment, with plans ranging from $17.50 per month for 20 months.
The new Samsung Gear S3 Frontier is LTE-capable, and AT&T is certain that it will be a hit among its subscribers since the new wearable also supports AT&T services. Jeff Bradley, senior vice president, device and network services marketing, said: "It can act as a smart hub for your home with the Digital Life and DIRECTV applications. Along with those innovative features, AT&T is also offering the Gear S3 frontier with something no other carrier has – NumberSync. Building on our first year of success with NumberSync and the Gear S series, AT&T is providing you with a simple, network-based solution so you don't have to juggle multiple phone numbers."
AT&T is not the only U.S. carrier that will be offering the new Samsung wearable. Another operator, T-Mobile, has also announced that it will start to offer the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier this week. It is available to T-Mobile subscribers for $399. Meanwhile, Verizon is also expected to offer the new smartwatch, though the mobile carrier has yet to come out with release and pricing details.
