Samsung Nexus S Now Available for Half Price

The national retailer Best Buy is holding a sale on the Samsung Nexus S. For a limited time, this high-end smartphone -- one of only two devices running the latest version of the Android OS -- is available for 50% off.

When purchased with a two-year service contract from T-Mobile, the Nexus S normally sells for $200, but Best Buy is now offering it for $100 with contract. Without a contract it is $530.

The deal requires the customer to be part of this retailer's Reward Zone program, which has a $10 annual membership fee.

This offer is only available until March 23.
