Following up on previous articles, MetroPCS has launched the Samsung Code after months of speculation and anticipation.
The device features Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard, QVGA landscape display, EVDO data access, microSDHC expansion slot, speakerphone, 2.0 megapixel camera with video recorder and QWERTY keyboard.
MetroPCS has also customized the Code with the WizProâ„¢ user interface as well as the full Windows Live suite of services. The phone is available now for $299.99 online, with retailers and authorized dealers offering an additional $50 mail-in rebate, bringing the total to $249.99.
There aren’t any extra charges, monthly, for this or the Curve they sell right?
Finally a decent Phone from MetroPCS… Let’s see how works…
The dying Windows Mobile operating system that is used on this Samsung phone is losing market share because of the clunky interface inconsistencies that Microsoft introduced.
Samsung’s better products instead use the new Google Android operating system, which is where the market is headed. Samsung’s entry-level Android phone is the i7500, and soon there will be the high-end i5700 Spica, also featuring Android.
the 50 dollar mail in rebate dose not exist in the detroit market. I know because I an authorized dealer with MetroPCS, please get the facts right – don’t confuse people
MetroPCS has not stated that the rebates are area-specific. If anyone was confusing here, it was MetroPCS, which provided us those details.
chris, this site is confusing. it only takes a minute to check the price of the phone before you post the article. its amazing how you have to throw the blame on metroPCS. this is just another reason why phonenews is unreliable. it doesn’t matter if you change because I won’t be back here.
Sam, you obviously didn’t read the article as I specified clearly that retailers and authorized dealers were offering an additional $50 rebate, while buying online was a different price.
FINE ! ! ! ! Don’t come back! We don’t need your useless phone knowledge! Man, whats his deal?
