Moments ago, AT&T posted up a teaser video for a device to be unveiled tomorrow, June 13. We’ve included the video below, which within the first 10 seconds appears to show off the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active. As the video continues to play, you can see the obvious physical home buttons, the squared off back camera lens, and Samsung’s TouchWiz. If those clues weren’t enough, the fact that the phone is dropped into a bucket of water and still takes calls is the supreme giveaway.

King of Exclusives: AT&T to Carry the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 With LTE
AT&T announced this morning that they will exclusively carry the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 with LTE here in the U.S. at some point in the coming weeks. Yes, another “exclusive” for AT&T. Oh how we love limiting consumer choices! (/s.)
AT&T Lights Up Large Group of New 4G LTE Markets
This week, AT&T continues their quickly-paced roll out of more 4G LTE markets in America. The company has been lighting up markets left and right, showing no signs of stopping until they blanket their current 3G network with glorious 4G LTE. Verizon is pretty much wrapped up with their roll out of LTE, while Sprint and T-Mobile have basically just begun. Either way, in a few years, we can say that all four of America’s largest carriers support LTE across the country. That’s a good thing for smartphone lovers.
AT&T Follows Verizon’s Lead, Changes Upgrade Cycle to 24 Months
This beautiful Sunday afternoon, AT&T announced that they are joining Verizon by tweaking their upgrade policy to match the length of contract periods. Back in early April, we broke news on Verizon’s change from 20-month upgrade cycles to 24-month cycles – AT&T will now follow the same time frame. This new policy “applies to any customer whose agreement expires in March 2014 or later.” So if your contract ends prior to next March, you’ll actually still be able to upgrade at the 20th month mark. Should your contract end next March or thereafter, you’ll have to wait an additional four months.
[Deal] HTC One 32GB Plus Beats Pill Speaker for $99 From AT&T
Talk about a deal, AT&T is currently hosting a package that includes the HTC One (in either black or silver) plus a Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker for a combined $99. The phone itself typically runs $199 on contract, while the speaker is also $199. So for $300 less than what you would buy them for individually, you can have them together. Not bad, right? Oh, you also get to choose between four different colors with the speaker (pink, black, red, or white).
AT&T Lighting Up Big List of New 4G LTE Markets
AT&T customers that have a 4G LTE capable device living in the below-listed cities are about to experience data speeds like never before. Ranging from Florida to Washington state, AT&T is clearly expediting the roll out of their 4G LTE coverage, staying way ahead of the curve in front of Sprint and T-Mobile’s LTE coverage. Sure, it’s not Verizon’s footprint, but according to recent studies, AT&T’s LTE speed dominates them all.
Samsung Galaxy S4 Active for AT&T Press Render Leaked
Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S4 Active that should be revealed at their London event on June 20, is now confirmed for AT&T thanks to a leaked press render. This variant of the GS4 Active looks incredibly different from past looks we have seen of the device, as this one sports a mono grey tone around the entirety of its body, with no other color accents except for a darker shade of matte grey along the bottom and top. The Active we have seen in photos and video was red and black with a more glossy tone.
