Yesterday, we mentioned that the Galaxy Note 2 for Verizon had popped up over at Amazon Wireless for $279, $20 cheaper than what Big Red was selling it for. Today, it’s dropped to $199 for new customers, a $100 discount. Upgrades are still the same $279, but if are with another carrier and feel like jumping ship to the biggest 4G LTE network in the land, then this is a price that will be tough to beat.
Cheers Lucas!
If you were waiting for Verizon’s version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 to start hitting online retailers at a discounted price, then today is your day. Now available on Amazon, the Note 2 for Verizon can be had for $279.99, a $20 discount. Well, almost had. It does list the device as “backordered” and that it will ship within 1-2 weeks. Just in time for X-mas, right?

HTC’s DROID DNA, the phone with the best display in the business, has dropped to $149.99 at Amazon for both new customers and upgrades. Verizon is selling the device for $199 on 2-year contract, so if you are interested in picking one up, you may want to go this route and save yourself $50.
We reviewed the device a couple of weeks back and came away very impressed. The battery life far exceeded our expectations, the display is brilliant, and the form factor doesn’t feel as big in hand as that 5-inch display would lead you to believe it has.
The long Thanksgiving weekend is over, so that can mean only one thing, time to shop online. “Cyber Monday” is upon us, with some decent deals already arriving at the usual stops like Amazon, Best Buy, and Office Depot. We’ve gathered the first batch for you below, but will ask that you post up as many good deals as you can find in the comments throughout the day. There are bound to be some sneaky ones out there that we haven’t found.

I love the holidays. It seems that all of my favorite things go on sale, including smartphones. For a limited time, naturally, AmazonWireless is hosting a deal on select Verizon devices that should make for some happy buyers.
The original DROID RAZR and RAZR MAXX are both on sale for only a penny, while upgrading and new customers can get the Galaxy S3 16GB for just $79.99. If you’re looking for one of Verizon’s new phones, you can grab the RAZR M for one cent as well, or grab the slightly aged HTC Rezound for the same price.

Amazon’s newest tablet, the Kindle Fire HD 8.9, starts shipping today. At $299 (for the WiFi version), you get a 8.9″ 1920×1200 display (with 254ppi), TI OMAP4470 dual-core processor, dual stereo Dolby Digital Plus audio speakers, a front facing camera for video chatting, and easy access to all of Amazon’s content.
If a WiFi-only model doesn’t fulfill your needs, then you may want to consider the 4G LTE equipped 8.9. It starts at $499, but more importantly, gives you the opportunity to purchase a $49 year-long data package. Amazon partnered with AT&T to offer this one-of-a-kind data deal. The 4G LTE model ships next week.

With Best Buy running a $100 off promotion for the Samsung Galaxy S3 today, Amazon was feeling a bit left out and decided to tweak their own listings. Both new customers and those with upgrades can take advantage of a $99 deal on the Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T GS3 16GB models. T-Mobile isn’t listed, but Sprint is. And since Best Buy isn’t discounting the Sprint version, then this is your option, Sprint customers. Both blue and white versions are discounted – you’ll find links to blue below.

Amazon just launched their newest creation, Cloud Drive Photos, to Google Play. Upon download, users are given 5GB of storage to use for safekeeping their photos instead of worrying about having them on their phone’s storage. From the app, you can share your photos to social networks, view photos in “stunning layouts” (that’s a bit much), and more.
