ROANOKE/LYNCHBURG, Va. (August 30, 2012) — Have you ever wondered how to use all of the features on your smartphone, or perhaps, wanted to know if you’re doing everything you can to get the most out of your device? You’re not alone. U.S. Cellular is inviting current or potential smartphone users to a Device Workshop on where you can learn more about the features, tips and tricks of a specific device — or even stop by to decide if a smartphone or tablet is right for your needs. At the workshop, U.S. Cellular associates will offer attendees hands-on assistance for Android™-powered, Windows™ Phone and BlackBerry® devices, such as the Samsung Galaxy S® III™.

“Your phone is supposed to simplify and enhance your life, which is why U.S. Cellular provides a high-speed nationwide network and the latest phones and tablets. Ensuring every customer knows how to get the most out of their device is just one of the ways we provide the best customer experience,” said Dana Dorcas, director of sales for U.S. Cellular in the Mid-Atlantic. “From offering the only points-based reward program in the industry to new devices faster without resigning contracts, we treat every customer like a neighbor, not a number.”

The latest Android™-powered, Windows™ Phone and BlackBerry® options offered by U.S. Cellular enable customers to transform a smartphone to a device that meets their exact needs. The Samsung Galaxy S® III™ allows customers to enjoy faster web browsing and quick app downloads with access to U.S. Cellular’s high-speed nationwide network.
