Carphone Warehouse


Carphone Warehouse's Galaxy S5 pre-order page is now live and the retailer has revealed its pricing for Samsung's 2014 flagship.

It will be available for £579.95 SIM-free or free on contracts starting at £42 per month for a 24 month 3G tariff.


The retailer revealed that pre-registration figures for the Galaxy S5 "quickly eclipsed" those of the Samsung Galaxy S4 last year as well.


"The S5 looks set to become a record breaking handset for Samsung at a key time in the mobile calendar as several major manufactureres launch handsets within weeks of one another," said a Carphone Warehouse spokesperson. "Our early pre-reigstration figures for this handset were off the charts."


Pre-ordered handsets will be delivered "from" April 11. Initially the Shimmer White and Charcoal Black models will only be available, with Electric Blue arriving on doorsteps from April 22 and the Copper Gold delivered by May 20.


Phones 4u


Similar to its rival retailer, Phones 4u's Galaxy S5 pre-order page is now live and the retailer is offering quite a special deal on the handset. If you want the device SIM-free, Phones 4u is offering it for £569.95, £10 cheaper than at Carphone Warehouse.

Also, if you pre-order the Galaxy S5 you'll automatically get a free £50 Google Play voucher, and if you're one of the first 1,000 to pre-order you'll also get a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 for free.


4G contracts start at £47 per month if you want a free handset from Phones 4u.


"The demand we experienced for the live demonstrations we provided across ten of our stores shows just how much the public want to get their hands on the new Samsung Galaxy S5, 2014's most anticipated smartphone," said Scott Hooton, CMO at Phones 4u. "With pre-registrations rocking to over five figures since its official global unveiling, we're excited to kick-off pre-orders online and in stores."


EE


The Samsung Galaxy S5 will be available in Black, White and Blue from EE with the pre-order page live now.

EE recommends you opt for the £37.99 per month contract with an upfront cost of £59.99, which offers unlimited minutes and texts and 4GB of data on a 24 month contract.

Three


Three has also opened up its Samsung Galaxy S5 pre-order page, with tariffs starting at £38 per month with a £69 up-front handset cost. Like EE it has the device in black, blue and white for delivery on April 11.

The cheapest £38 per month 24 month contract offers 2GB of 4G data, 600 minutes and unlimited texts. For all-you-can-eat data you'll need to jump up to £41 per month, which also gets your 600 minutes and unlimited text messages.

Vodafone


Vodafone is also letting you pre-order the Galaxy S5, with the device available for free on a £37 per month Red 3G plan when you trade in your old Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

If you want 4G data, tariffs start at £47 per month with a £19 one-off handset payment, but this does offer unlimited calls, texts, 3GB of data and access to either Spotify Premium or Sky Sports Mobile TV.


O2


The Galaxy S5 is available to pre-order now on the O2 Refresh tariffs starting at £38 per month with a £69.99 upfront cost. For that cost you'll get unlimited texts and minutes as well as 2GB of 4G data.

You can get a free handset with contracts starting at £48 per month, which will get you unlimited minutes/texts and 5GB of 4G data.


Virgin Media


You'll be able to get the S5 with Virgin Media from April 11, but you won't actually be able to pre-order it at all it seems.

If you're a Virgin Media TV, broadbandor home phone customer you can get the Galaxy S5 for £29 per month from April 11 with a maximum up-front cost of £99.


However, if you aren't a Virgin Media customer already, tariffs start at £39 for 100 minutes, 250 texts and 250MB of data, which is very pricey.


The actual tariffs are rather complicated though, so take a look at the graphs below.

"The Samsung Galaxy S5 is one of the most hotly anticipated releases of the year and will be an exciting addition to our great line-up of handsets," said Jamie Heywood, director of mobile at Virgin Media.
