Samsung Galaxy S6 active Coming Exclusively to AT&T on June 12th

gs6

It seems that if you want the new Samsung Galaxy S6 active phone you’ll need to be on AT&T and they’re getting exclusivity according to this PR that just arrived in my email. Price will be $868 if you’re using the AT&T next plan which is ridiculous I think, but then again I guess that’s how much a phone costs these days right? Is it worth it? Not sure if it is. I think I already pay too much per month for my bill and they want me to pay even more with the AT&T Next plan. I looked and couldn’t find anything about buying the phone outright from Samsung so I’m not sure what it really costs… Full PR below for you if you’re interested..

The Samsung Galaxy S6 active – available only at AT&T2 – is designed with your active lifestyle in mind.
