Hello o2

 

I currently have Samsung Galaxy S2 since 26th October 2011. I'am on 24 month contract with O2 so i still have about half a year left of this contract. However, I have seen the new Samsung Galaxy S4 coming out in April/May and I am wondering if there is a chance of changing the S2 into S4 ? 

 

Thanks

If you pay off the remainder of your current contract you can take the upgrade or just buy a sim free S4 and put your sim in it. Obviously you will need a micro sim but your contract can be switched over in store to do this.

You would have to pay off the remainder of your contract to upgrade to the S4. However your best option would be to sell the S2 and purchase the S4 simfree and carry on with your present contract.
