T-Mobile to offer buy-one-get-one promotion for the Galaxy Note 7

Samsung confirmed about a week ago that it's going to unveil the Galaxy Note 7 at an event in New York City on August 2. There have been rumors that perhaps the Galaxy Note 7 is going to be released on the same day in select markets. While that's yet to be confirmed, it appears that T-Mobile might be preparing a bold promotion for what's certainly going to be one of the hottest smartphones on the market this year.

Serial leakster @evleaks has said that T-Mobile is going to offer a buy-one-get-one-free promotion for the Galaxy Note 7. This would be a rather bold move on the carrier's part as it's not common for such promotions to be offered at launch for high-end flagship handsets. T-Mobile will certainly be looking to capitalize on the popularity of Samsung's flagships to bring in more subscribers and what could be a better way to bring more people in than to offer them the Galaxy Note 7 for free as long as they agree to pay for one. T-Mobile has made a name for itself in the United States as a carrier that doesn't shy away from taking bold steps so there just might be an element of plausibility to this, but we'll only know for sure once the official pricing and availability information is confirmed next month.
