We first heard last week that Best Buy will be selling the enV Touch and will allow customers to pre-order it with a $50 deposit before the June 5th launch date. This promotion will now appear in the new Best Buy circular set to be in stores (and Sunday newspapers) May 31st. Best Buy lists the price of the enV Touch as $599.99 full retail, $199.99 with new 2-year activation, and $229.99 with a qualified upgrade. This is more than what Verizon is expected to sell the device for: $409.99 full retail and $149.99 with a 2-year agreement (after $70 rebate). Also showing up on the Best Buy paper is the enV3, which comes out this Friday May 29th. Their price is showing $369.99 full retail and $69.99 with a new 2-year activation or qualified upgrade. Verizon will be selling the enV3 for $299.99 full retail and $129.99 with a 2-year agreement (after $50 rebate).
So will you purchase the enV Touch and enV3 from Best Buy or Verizon? Let us know in the Comment section below.
Mint Mobile is now allowing you to get whichever plan you like for either three, six, or 12 months for just $15/mo. If you go for the six-month unlimited service, for instance, you'll now have to pay just $90 upfront instead of $210.
