We are on our way to the first full week since the Samsung Galaxy S4 went on sale in our country. At the moment it is difficult to be precise about how it is behaving in sales, although the forecasts are positive. Especially if we consider that some of the four companies that have included it in their catalogs allow the user to take it away without even opening their wallet. We can find several options: from paying once with a small discount, access to a formula that involves financing in installments or subsidizing the device in exchange for assuming a commitment to stay and hiring certain rates.
We already anticipated how Yoigo has assembled it so that its customers can get hold of this terminal. In this sense, we find three options. One of them offers the opportunity to get the Samsung Galaxy S4 for 600 euros in a single payment. That means a reduction of about 100 euros compared to the original price, so there will be those who find this possibility more than interesting. The other two postpone the total payment of the telephone in 24 monthly installments, applying different subsidies depending on the contracted rate. One of these options means that we can get the Samsung Galaxy S4 without a down payment; the other, involves paying 120 euros at the time we take the phone with us. Why is it not paid in one option and yes in the other? The key is in the monthly payment. If we do not make an initial payment, the terms for the Samsung Galaxy S4 will be between 25 and fifteen euros. In case we opt for the 120 euros payment, the monthly payments would fall to between 20 and ten euros, always depending on whether we choose the rate of 2, the Mega Flat 20 or one of the Infinites.
In the case of Movistar, the Samsung Galaxy S4 would not require any type of payment beyond the one that is integrated into the monthly installments that we would pay along with the contracted rate. In this sense, all postpaid Talk and Browse rates are compatible with this formula. It can also be obtained for almost 31.5 euros per month ”” which is, after all, the monthly payment that is paid in the formula described above ”” if we want to obtain it through the combination proposed in the Fusion package. In all these cases, Movistar would tie the client during the 24 months that the financing is extended, which would end up being a final payment of755 euros ”” 55 euros more than the recommended price in free format ””.
Orange is probably the company that offers the most intricate description for getting the Samsung Galaxy S4. To begin with, it offers two options according to which the phone can be ours following a financing. The initial payment of the Samsung Galaxy S4 would be 60 euros, assuming 24 subsequent monthly payments of 25 euros each. In total, the terminal would cost 660 euros "" a price that we could pay at once if we wanted to to be able to take the Samsung Galaxy S4 "". To access this formula, we could hire the Delfín 12 or Delfín 35 rates. Beyond here, we enter the field of the most classic subsidy. TheDolphin 60 or Ballena 55 rates involve a one-time payment of 170 euros for the Samsung Galaxy S4. The terminal will cost us 290 euros if we hire the Delfín 42 or the Ballena 4 0. If we prefer to subscribe the Delfín 30 or Ballena 32 rate, the Samsung Galaxy S4 will cost us 450 euros. Finally, you will have to pay 500 euros for Samsung's high-end smartphone in case we hire the Delfín 20 or Ballena 22. In all cases, we will be tied to the company for 24 months.
Finally, the British- born operator Vodafone offers its customers a somewhat clearer itinerary, although with little space to get the Samsung Galaxy S4 by the pin. There would only be one way to do it: hire the Vodafone Red 3 rate, which offers five GB of monthly browsing, as well as unlimited calls and SMS, but for a price of almost 110 euros per month. The following rate would imply paying 50 euros for the Samsung Galaxy S4, as long as we get the Vodafone RED 2 (almost 85 euros per month). 100 and 200 euros will cost the Samsung Galaxy S4 if we hire the Vodafone Red rate (66.55 euros) or the Vodafone Base 3 (54.45 euros),respectively. Finally, if we request the service of the Vodafone Base or Vodafone Base 2 rates, getting the Samsung Galaxy S4 will involve the outlay of 250 euros.
