According to a recent report coming from Forbes, it seems that Samsung could be planning on launching its own ‘Upgrade Program,‘ similar to what Apple has announced for the newest iPhone 6S and the iPhone 6S iPhone 6S Plus.

Thus, just like Apple, Samsung is looking to eliminate the carriers that have acted as a middlemen between consumers and phone making companies. Samsung leasing plans are scheduled to be launched sometime in the next few months.

Apple's ‘iPhone Upgrade Program’ is directly leasing the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus to customers through its retail stores in the United States. The lease prices will start from $32 per month for up to 24 months.
