Best Buy has slashed the price of the Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 to $49.99 for a limited time for last minute Christmas shoppers.
Christmas is only a few days away and smartphones are among the most popular gifts this holiday season. If you're looking to buy a top-of-the-line Android smartphone, many believe there's no better choice than Samsung's flagship Galaxy S4. The smartphone comes packed with high-end specs, a professional 13-megapixel camera, and exclusive software features that allow the handset to do some amazing and cool tricks.
Samsung uses facial recognition with its Smart Pause feature, which allows the Galaxy S4 to detect when you look away from the display while watching a video and automatically pause it, with no interaction from you. Simply stare back at the screen and the phone is smart enough to resume playing where you left off. Its Smart Scroll feature uses the built-in accelerometer to scroll web pages and emails when the smartphone detects the direction your wrist is being turned and scrolls accordingly. These are just some of the exclusive and innovative Samsung has packed into the Galaxy S4.
With Christmas only a few days away, Best Buy has slashed the price of the Samsung Galaxy S4 on AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint to $49.99 when signing a new 2-year contract.
