Get a Galaxy S6 free when you buy another Samsung phone from AT&T

samsung galaxy s6 vs s6 edge aa (11 of 39)

A free Samsung Galaxy S6? There's gotta be some kind of catch. Yeah, actually, there is. But let's see what this deal looks like on paper before we get to the fine print.

Through the end of the year only, AT&T is offering a frankly jaw-dropping deal. If you buy a Samsung Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge+, S6 Active, or a Note 5, they're going to give you the option to take a Galaxy S6 on the house. It's a holiday offer that seems generous enough to put anyone in a festive mood, but this buy-one-get-one combo isn't quite as straightforward as similarly described deals found in department stores and fireworks stands.

REVIEWS AND COMPARISONS OF THE GALAXY S6

To be eligible for the offer, you have to be opening up a new line of service for the additional Galaxy S6. Both the new line of service and the service plan for the originally purchased device have to sign up for AT&T's 24-month Next installment plan ($70/mo minimum). Furthermore, you actually still purchase the "free" Galaxy S6 – either through financing or outright – and AT&T will give you $21.67 per-month off your billing statement for the next 30 months (capping at $650), effectively refunding you the device's cost as you go. If you terminate service at any time, you have to pay any of the unpaid remaining value of the phone back to AT&T.

So while this is still clearly a good deal for people who were already looking to purchase two new phones and add a new line of service for the next two years, this isn't exactly an extra scoop of ice cream AT&T is doling out to get into the Christmas spirit. For some it looks like it could be a godsend, but others may want to pass. Click the button below to check out the official promo page and decide if AT&T's two-for-one offer is right for you.

Why do Android fanboys hate admitting that Samsung copied Apple?

It's impossible to cover the mobile market without diving into the good ol' "iOS vs. Android" debate from time to time. These are the two biggest mobile platforms on the planet, so they're constantly being compared. Likewise, Samsung and Apple are the world's top two smartphone vendors, so their phones are constantly pitted against each other as well. Of course, there's another reason Apple and Samsung are often mentioned in the same breath: after entering the market, Samsung quickly grew to become the top mobile device maker on the planet thanks in large part to Apple. First, Samsung did everything it possibly could to copy Apple's iPhone and iPad. Then, it spent billions upon billions of dollars belittling Apple products in TV, online, and print advertising. Samsung spent years positioning its own devices as the cool alternative to Apple's iPhone, and its efforts paid off big time. Even now, Samsung continues to copy Apple all the time acro
