AT&T has yet to reveal launch pricing for two of its most highly anticipated smartphones, but it looks as though Amazon is already preparing to undercut the carrier at launch. Both announced at AT&T’s press conference during the Consumer Electronics Show earlier this month, the Motorola ATRIX 4G and Samsung Infuse 4G each went live on amazon.com last night. Both listings have since been pulled, but not before the world caught a glimpse of Amazon’s intended pricing. Known for its deep discounts, the online retailer plans to price the Motorola ATRIX 4G at $149.99 while the Samsung Infuse 4G will be even more affordable at $99.99. Full retail for the phones is listed as $599.99 and $499.99, respectively. The ATRIX 4G is expected to launch at the end of February for an estimated $199.99, and the Infuse 4G will launch sometime in the second quarter, possibly at $149.99.

      All these websites do it with a 2 year contract…they give u huge savings but if u break ur contract, u will have to break the bank in fees.

      $600 is base price without contract from Thrid Parties… they make their money off signing you up…. they don’t want to sell you off contract so they inflate the price…

    Nice little discount, but i think letstalk might have it for less. My friend got a Captivate on release day for 20 bucks plus free overnight shipping…and there is wirefly, and as a consumer i love a variety. I will be using any website i can get the best deal on…screw in store, they might try to sell it for like $300. Even if i cant get a better deal $150 is a good price IMO because i was gunna be willing to spend as much as $200 if no websites had a deal.

      Those initial deals are for people who start a new contract, not for those who renew theirs. Still, even for people who renewed their contracts, the Captivate eventually went all the way down to 1 cent on Amazon. That’s always how it works; if you can wait a couple of weeks, that $150 will go down to about $60 and then lower still. Just remember you can’t downgrade service for 6 months. After that, you can do whatever you want.
