The company said on Friday that all of the devices earmarked for the program, which include the curvy Galaxy S6 Edge, S6 Edge+ and jumbo Note 5, have been reserved for users wanting to test out the phone.

In a nutshell, the Samsung Ultimate Test Drive will allow you to try out one of Samsung’s latest devices for 30-days at the cost of $1.00.
All they have to do is go to the site SamsungPromotions.com through their iPhone, choose from among the Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 edge or the Galaxy S6 edge Plus and pay $1.
The Galaxy Note 5 experience serves as a guide so the user can gather some information about the s-pen, display, new features and the camera. Secondly, you will need an iPhone and using your mobile device, surf on over to Samsung’s website. You should receive your test phone soon. Since Apple released the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus past year, the popularity of Android phones has dropped significantly. Next, users are prompted to select their current carrier and the device they’d be interested in taking for a spin.
And if given a proper chance (like this 30 day “ultimate test drive”), one could easily be lured into switching to the Galaxy handset rather than sticking to the iPhone.
There is no doubt that Samsung is keen to get hold of the many hearts that are devoted to Apple’s iPhone.
This aggressive promotion to turn iPhone users to Samsung may suggest that Samsung is feeling pressure. And now the Korean electronics behemoth has come up with a promotional offer to steal away users of Apple Inc.
The test drive will expire after 30 days.

Still, Samsung continues to dominate the smartphone market, obtaining 22 percent of global sales last quarter, CNN Money reported. Samsung also says that if you return a device with a cracked screen, water damage, or major scratches, it’ll charge you $100.
