Google Nexus S is free one day only at Best Buy

Tomorrow, August 3, Best Buy will be offering the Google Nexus S for T-Mobile, AT&T and Sprint for free with a new two-year activation; but make a decision fast because this sale is for one day only.

The Google Nexus S 4G for Sprint dropped to free in Best Buy retail locations last week. At that point however, the AT&T version was still being offered for $99.99. It is nice to see a device that is offered on multiple networks get the same treatment when it comes to a sale, even if it’s only for a day.

The sale is going to be available online as well and will run until 11:59 p.m. EST on Wednesday August 3. Although the Google Nexus S may have been overshadowed lately you still can’t beat a pure Android 2.3 handset for the price of free. Anybody plan on taking advantage of the one day sale? Tell us what you think in the comments below.

Yes!!!! this was on my possible list of phones to get until i can upgrade to a Iphone 5 or other. I will def take advantage of this deal with the contract of my other lines ending this month. Last December i snagged the free 3GS at best buy for my primary as well. I'm so happy!!!!

Sprint version sucks bad for pulling in a signal. Pass on that one.
