Finally, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is official and know we know it will be released on April 11.
The UK network providers and smartphone retailers have already announced if they will stock the Galaxy S5 come launch and some have opened their "register your interest" pages.
We’ll collate all the information as it arrives here, ahead of the official Samsung Galaxy S5 release date announcement in the coming weeks.
Carphone Warehouse
Although, Carphone Warehouse has confirmed it will stock the Galaxy S5, it has not yet announced when you’ll be able to pre-order the device.
“As a preferred retail partner of Samsung, Carphone Warehouse will be one of the first outlet retailers to bring the S5 to consumers in the UK and we know our customers are eager to get their hands on it,” said Graham Stapleton, Carphone Warehouse UK and Ireland CEO. “Samsung launches are always hugely popular as they are very good at bringing the best of technology together into one handset. The advances made with the S5 do this more than ever before by focussing on features which really put the smart into smartphone.”
Phones 4u
Phones 4u has confirmed that it will stock the Galaxy S5, with the device available to pre-order
from the website at a later date.
In order to know exactly when you’ll be able to pre-order the S5 with Phones 4u, you’ll need to register your interest.
“We can't wait to welcome the new Samsung Galaxy S5 into our stores this year”, said Scott Hooton, CMO at Phones 4u. “Its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S4, was one of the most pre-ordered smartphones at Phones 4u in 2013 and we expect the Samsung Galaxy S5 to be no exception to that trend.”
EE
The Samsung Galaxy S5 will be offered on the EE 4G network from launch on a range of 4GEE and 4GEE Extra tariffs, which have yet to be disclosed.
EE has also teased that it will offer “an exclusive incentive” to new and existing customers pre-ordering the Galaxy S5 with EE.
Full details will be announced “in the coming weeks”, but until then you can register your interest on the EE
Three
Three has also revealed the Galaxy S5 will be available from the network provider at launch, but have yet to release any further information.
“With great camera technology and innovative health features, we are delighted to be ranging the Samsung Galaxy S5,” said Sylvia Chind, Head of Devices at Three. “Perfect for those who want to tweet their park run progress or simply share a stunning sunset image on their way home, people can do so quickly using Three’s 4G network which we offer at no extra cost, while also making the most of our all-you-can-eat data.”
If and when further retailers and providers announce their S5 availability, we’ll update this page.
