Boost Mobile offers Motorola Moto G via HSN for $79.95 after rebate

The Android answer to the entry level Nokia Lumia 520/521, the Motorola Moto G, is now available from HSN for a rebate adjusted $79.95 from Boost Mobile. The two Windows Phone 8 models are twins and thanks to the value that buyers see, the pair have become the most popular models on the platform. Google subsidiary Motorola is fighting back with the Moto G, which resembles a shrunken Motorola Moto X, and offers replaceable back covers in a variety of colors.

The Motorola Moto G is available from HSN for $129.95 sans contract. But there is a $50 mail-in rebate that takes the price down to $79.95. HSN is throwing in a free car charger and a case. That price undercuts Best Buy, where the Verizon branded version of the phone is now available for $99.99, and Verizon itself, where the phone will launch on January 9th also priced at $99.99.

Boost is offering with the phone, its $55 unlimited talk, text and data plan. For every 6 months of on-time payments, the price drops $5 until it hits the floor of $40 a month. The unlimited data is high speed for the first 2.5GB and then you are throttled. Boost's online store will start offering the Moto G on January 14th with the phone in Boost's physical stores starting a week later.
