Samsung Instinct available June 20th for $129.99, strings attached

Filed under:

In a move that Sprint clearly hopes will fuel the iPhone vs. Instinct fires, the company today announced that it would be selling its lauded touchscreen phone starting June 20th for a price point of just $129.99. Of course, that takes into account a new two-year contract and $100 mail-in rebate, but it still comes in lower than the expected $199.99 price tag we’d been hearing about. Oddly, to activate the phone Sprint stipulates that you have to choose one of their unlimited data plans — which start at a minimum of $69.99 per month (with 450 minutes of talk-time) — so monthly costs hover right on level with AT&T’s iPhone options… unsurprisingly.
