Samsung Galaxy S IV

Samsung Galaxy S IVWhile the other major carriers in the US have all revealed their plans to release the Samsung Galaxy S4, Verizon Wireless has been a bit more secretive. The carrier now says that it will begin pre-orders for the S4 tomorrow, but it is still leaving us in the dark as to when it will ship the phone and how much it will cost. The news comes as other carriers have delayed their launch plans: T-Mobile expects to sell the phone online starting on April 29th, while Sprint will have the phone available online on the 27th. Both were forced to push back retail availability due to inventory problems. AT&T, meanwhile, still plans to have the Galaxy S4 in stock online and in stores on the 27th. Verizon tells us that the on-contract Galaxy S4 will begin at $249.99 for the 16GB model, though it will be sold with a $50 mail-in rebate. That brings it down to the same $199.99 AT&T’s charging for the phone.
