Father's Day is now less than a week out, and just in case you haven't yet figured out what you're going to do for Dad, T-Mobile has officially announced its Father's Day sale. The promotion will be taking place this at T-Mobile stores Friday and Saturday (June 15 and June 16) and will see all of T-Mobile's 4G smartphones, as well as select mobile broadband devices, have their prices knocked down to $0 after mail-in rebate. Both new and existing customers are eligible for the Father's Day sale, though T-Mobile notes that current Classic subscribers are subject to the standard upgrade eligibility rules if they decide to stay with a Classic plan. Existing Classic plan customers that opt to switch to a Value plan and have less than 18 months contract tenure will be subject to the standard migration fees.
In order to give us an idea of the devices available during the Father's Day promo and the Equipment Installment Plan (EIP) pricing that Value customers can expect, T-Mobile has given a few examples of what interested subscribers will see once this sale kicks off on Friday. Folks selecting an HTC One S with a qualifying Classic plan will pay $299.99 out of pocket in store, and they'll then be able to send T-Mobile a mail-in rebate worth $300 to bring the net cost of the handset to $0. On the Value plan side of things, customers will pay an out of pocket down payment of $199.99 at their T-Mobile store and then will receive a $200 mail-in rebate card to bring the net down payment to $0. The EIP monthly payment for the One S is set at $20.
T-Mobile is known for holding sales on or around Father's Day, and it's nice to finally have the details of this year's promo laid out. I'm sure that there'll be a number of folks that will be disappointed that the Samsung Galaxy S III isn't a part of the promotion (since, you know, it's not launching until June 21), but there are some nice devices that are included in the sale, like the aforementioned HTC One S and the Samsung Galaxy S II, the latter of which will be receiving an update to Android 4.0 later today. If you'd like some more details on the Father's Day 2012 sale before deciding whether or not you'll be making the trek to a T-Mobile store this weekend, we've got more pricing examples and a full press release below.
