You may have heard that Samsung’s latest Tizen smartwatches were announced this morning – the Samsung Gear S2 and Samsung Gear S2 Classic. The Gear S2 technically comes in two variants, one with a 3G radio meaning that you’ll need to get a mobile data plan for your wearable if you intend on using it to its full potential. We’ve just got news that T-Mobile will let you add your Samsung Gear S2 3G to your phone plan for $5/month under what it calls the “Un-carrier wearable rate plan”. According to T-Mobile, this includes:
- Unlimited talk and text
- Up to 500MB of high-speed data a month with NO overages
- Unlimited music streaming with services like Samsung Milk Music and more so you can leave your Samsung Galaxy phone at home when you’re out on a run or running errands
