“Try before you buy” programs seem to be gaining quite a bit of steam in the mobile arena. First Motorola ran a brief promotion that allowed consumers to pay just one penny to try out a Moto X for two weeks, and then T-Mobile announced that it’d begin allowing people to test drive its network with a free iPhone 5s for a week. Now Samsung is getting in on the action, announcing a trial program at some of its U.S. stores.
Samsung announced today that it’s kicking off a new trial program that allows consumers to test out several of its Galaxy devices for a full 21 days. The program includes devices like the Galaxy S5, Galaxy Note 3, Gear 2 and Gear Fit. The smartphones come with carrier service, a screen protector, USB cord and earbuds, while the smartwatches are bundled with a charging cradle and cord.
The trial program is currently underway at five Samsung Galaxy Studio store locations across the U.S. Those stores are:
- Dallas-Fort Worth/Frisco, TX: Stonebriar Centre Mall, 2601 Preston Rd, Frisco, TX 75034
- Houston/The Woodlands, TX: The Woodlands Mall, 1201 Lake Woodlands Dr, The Woodlands, TX 77380
