Published on: 1st Jan 1970: 1:33am

­T-Mobile USA says that it will be the exclusive network selling Samsung's Galaxy S 4G smartphone in the USA - running on its HSPA+ network. Powered by Android 2.2 (Froyo), the Galaxy S 4G is T-Mobile's first smartphone capable of delivering theoretical peak download speeds of up to 21 Mbps - although the reality will be much slower.

T-Mobile's HSPA+ based network is currently available in 100 major metropolitan areas, reaching approximately 200 million people nationwide. With aggressive plans to expand and double the speed of its 4G network in 2011, T-Mobile expects that 140 million Americans in 25 major metropolitan areas will have access to these increased mobile broadband speeds by midyear.

"With Galaxy S 4G, T-Mobile will deliver its fastest smartphone yet on America's largest 4G network, providing rich entertainment virtually whenever and wherever consumers want," said Cole Brodman, chief marketing officer, T-Mobile USA. "And with 4G data plans from $10 per month, we're making blazing-fast 4G speeds and super smartphone experiences easily accessible to the millions who crave them."

More information on the Galaxy S 4G from T-Mobile will be available in the coming weeks.
