T-Mobile Takes Flight, Sets Two World Records with Galaxy S9, S9+It's a no-brainer: the Galaxy S9 and S9+ are Samsung's fastest ever superphones, so of course you should start those bad boys up on the fastest network ever - T-Mobile's (News - Alert) (NASDAQ: TMUS), with the accolades to match. The Un-carrier is so major, they just set TWO GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ titles with the Samsung (News - Alert) Galaxy S9 and S9+. And, they're unleashing these two beasts - at the industry's best prices - tomorrow at T-Mobile stores nationwide. That's the same day the Galaxy S9 lands at MetroPCS, too. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180315005676/en/ "You're getting an insanely fast new Samsung Galaxy, you gotta get it on the fastest network…and bonus - get it at the industry's best price," said John Legere, president and CEO at T-Mobile. "These phones are gonna fly off the shelves, and the best teams in wireless are amped and ready! T-Mobile and MetroPCS teams lead the pack in the latest J.D. Power Wireless Purchase Experience studies - they're gonna rock your wireless world, the way they always do!" The media's been hounding the old-guard carriers for jacking up the price of these two serious speedsters, and for good reason. You'll pay nearly 10 percent more for the Galaxy S9 at AT&T or Sprint (News - Alert), and even more than that if you choose either model from Big Red. At T-Mobile, customers can snag a Midnight Black, Lilac Purple or Coral Blue Galaxy S9 for just $30/month on the T-Mobile Equipment Installment Plan ($0 down, FRP: $720), or the larger Galaxy S9+ in the same colors for $30/month ($120 down, FP: $840). And with T-Mobile offering half off the S9 or $360 off the S9+ via bill credits with eligible trade-in, it's a total no-brainer. The World's Most 'Extra' Speed Test The Galaxy S9 and S9+ coming to the nation's fastest network calls for a kick-off of epic proportions, so T-Mobile headed to Lake Elsinore in California with GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS to test out Samsung's latest superphones - and, yeah, to have a little fun in the process. To drive home the point that speed shouldn't be contained, the Un-carrier launched the world's most 'extra' speed test: to pull it off, they involved a bunch of waterskiers, a giant magenta airship and the fastest Samsung phones on the fastest network in the country. And in typical Un-carrier fashion, they set two GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS titles in the process - including the fastest text on a touch screen mobile phone while water skiing. Check it out here. Stuck on another network? T-Mobile's gotchoo, too. The Un-carrier wants you to experience the kind of speed you and these new phones deserve so switch and get a free line of service when you add a line to your new T-Mobile ONE family plan - that's four lines for $35/line with taxes and fees included.
