Best Buy to offer Samsung S30 for $49.99

Retail

The slightly smaller, sleeker successor to the Samsung Instinct is hitting Sprint retail stores on April 19th and it looks like Best Buy might be besting Sprint’s offer. With a two-year contract and $100 mail-in-rebate, the S30 will be retailing for $129.99 from Sprint but the pictured flyer shows Best Buy dropping $80 from that price. Of course, if you read the fine print it says that you’ll need an Everything Plan with data — something that Sprint retail stores won’t be requiring for its purchase. The way we see it, if you’re planning on grabbing one of these phones next week, you may as well get the Everything Plan and pick up the phone for less. With a device like this, you’re going to want unlimited data and all that jazz anyway.

    which one is more crappier the one on the rigth or the one on the left
    it looks better than the original instinct but is still have that crappy UI

    That is a pretty good deal and the everything plan from sprint rocks. When you compare sprints everything plan to all the others, they are hard to beat, unlimited data, text, mms, email, calling, navigation, etc, their plans just rock. Now if the phones could, life would be a little better.

    In a world of self expression and mobile devices, what does a Samsung instinct 2 tell about you?

  • Jed

    Actually you can go buy it now at Best Buy for that price.

    Best Buy Mobile’s system will not let you put a Sprint smartphone on a line without one of the everything plans. Are you sure Sprint can sell this and put it on a line w/o an everything plan?

    Keep in mind it is $49.99 on a new line and $129.99 for an upgrade.

    Either way, no rebates

    As a 10 Yr Sprint Customer i agree with Capt..However, Sprint Needs to quit doin its Bullshitter Dance and come out with more Smartphones…Niagaras..New Curves, etc. The Pre is a Good start, but they shoulda had that out in Q1, not Q2.

    That roadmap has me savin for a new smartphone…but those wont come til end of summer at the earliest. Most people i know get their Instincts from Best Buy…But wake me up when the Instinct 2 is here…

    The phone will be offered for that price and wil1 require a simply everything data plan. The phone will arrive tomorrow but is not supposed to go on sale until Sunday April 19th.

    We do not deal with rebates so our prices are almost always better.
