Boost Mobile, a brand committed to providing a broad range of devices from entry level to smartphones on the Nationwide Sprint Network, adds affordability into its handset portfolio with the launch of the Samsung Factor for $49.99 (excluding taxes). The Samsung Factor is rolling out now at Boost Mobile exclusive retail stores and select independent wireless dealer locations across the country and is available at www.boostmobile.com with free shipping. By the end of April, the Samsung Factor from Boost Mobile will be available in select retail outlets nationwide.

“The Samsung Factor is a great addition for our customers who desire simplicity in an increasingly complex wireless space,” said Andre Smith, vice president-Boost Mobile. “We are happy to launch an affordable device that complements the savings from our monthly unlimited plan.”

The Samsung Factor is a perfect match for Monthly Unlimited with Shrinkage, where the longer you stay, the less you pay simply by making on-time payments. For every six on-time payments, a customer’s monthly cost will shrink by $5, eventually getting down to as low as $35 a month for unlimited nationwide talk, text, Web, e-mail, IM and calls to 411.

Samsung Factor features include:

Bluetooth

Camera

Wireless Web and e-mail access to Gmail, MSN, Yahoo! and more

Instant Messaging capable (Yahoo!, AIM and Windows Live Messenger)

Multimedia and text messaging capable

Voice mail, caller ID, call waiting and call forwarding

International Connect Promotion Extended

Boost Mobile customers can enjoy even more value with the extension of the $5 International Connect promotion. Now through March 31, new and existing subscribers who add this feature to the monthly unlimited plan will receive the reduced rate of just $5 per month. After March 31, this promotional price will be grandfathered for those customers as long as the account is active and the $5 add-on remains on the account.

This limited-time offer includes unlimited calling to landlines in more than 150 cities in Mexico, landlines in the Dominican Republic, unlimited calling to landlines and mobile phones to select Asian-Pacific countries and Canada, and unlimited international text messaging from the United States.
