Sprint Galaxy Nexus Price Drops at Amazon

Those looking to get a brand new Samsung Galaxy Nexus on Sprint should have a look at the deal that Amazon now has on the device as the retailer has undercut the price of the carrier by a full $50.

Originally, Amazon Wireless had the Sprint Galaxy Nexus priced at the same $199.99 as Sprint. However, Amazon is now offering up the Galaxy Nexus for a mere $150. That’s not an incredible discount by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s certainly a nice price for a phone that just came out a few weeks ago.

It appears that the price applies to both new customers and those upgrading so those who own an older Sprint device that are up for a new contract might want to take a long look at Amazon’s offer.

Sprint currently offers up the device with the full $199.99 price tag.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is one of three 4G LTE smartphones that Sprint is currently offering. The $100 LG Viper 4G LTE is currently available and Sprint just started taking pre-orders for the HTC EVO 4G LTE which it plans to release later on this month.

The EVO 4G LTE figures to be the Samsung Galaxy Nexus’ biggest in-house competition and judging from a poll that we took here at Gotta Be Mobile, it might be able to surpass the Galaxy Nexus in sales.
