Galaxy yearly upgrade program - anyone know any details?

So correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't see anything about a yearly upgrade service like Apple has announced yesterday. Anyone hear anything about it?

I didn't see anything about it yet.

I saw somewhere on GSMArena about Sprint running this program. Galaxy Forever Sprint Lease

Haven't seen it on other carriers yet.

I suspect the Big 4 carriers will offer leasing/early upgrade options for the GS7's, as they have with the GS6's. Even Apple's iPhone Upgrade Program requires phone activation on the Big 4 carriers. Sometimes the deals are better when leasing/buying directly with the carriers than using Apple's program, such as including significant gift cards or credits, which I've never seen offered in the iPhone Upgrade Program.

It is a Sprint yearly lease program.

I'm on Verizon and was hoping for the Samsung service cause I have to wait every two years or trade in my phone and pay like $300. It's a rip off

According to Verizon CSR if you opt for the monthly payments then you can upgrade yearly. Turn in old phone get new. You just start paying the new monthly amount if it is different

Plus you have to pay a large sum. I can upgrade now also but would have to pay $325 I think it is. Just to pay off my current phone. And that's with trading it in.

Yes, that is my site for the U.K.. You can check their other worldwide sites... Visit Your Country Site but it does not appear to be available in the U.S.A. or Canada.

So, does the $13 bill credit reduce the monthly to $12.99 for the GS7, or is $25.99 the reduced payment?
