Classes will help smartphone users get most out of their device, customize it to fit lifestyle

Smartphone sales will exceed 1 billion devices by 2016, according to IMS Research. For wireless customers looking to make the switch to a smartphone or tablet or simply upgrade their device, U.S. Cellular will offer free Device Workshops in your area throughout the month. U.S. Cellular associates will help attendees get the most out of the features on their Android-powered, Windows Phone and BlackBerry devices, such as the Samsung Galaxy S Aviator and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. The workshops are open to everyone. Please call the store to RSVP. 
           
“Smartphones continue to be our go-to, all-in-one gadget,” said Frank Jacquez, director of sales for U.S. Cellular in the Mid-Atlantic. “Android-powered devices have access to nearly half a million apps along with digital movies, books and music. Customers who switch to U.S. Cellular join the only points-based rewards program in wireless and receive points that can be used toward faster phone upgrades, free phones, ringtones and accessories.”

Android-powered devices enable customers to transform a smartphone to a device that meets their exact needs. The Samsung Galaxy S Aviator allows customers to enjoy faster web browsing and quick app downloads with access to 4G LTE speeds that are up to 10 times faster than 3G and similar to a cable Internet connection.

“We believe that each customer deserves the best wireless experience, so our associates are here to help you get the most out of your device,” Jacquez said.
