Amazon has kicked off its "Eight Days of Black Friday Deals" and smartphone fans should take notice. The HTC One M8 and LG G3 are now on sale for a penny with a new 2-year contract from Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint.
As we begin to prepare to reflect on what we're most thankful for this Thanksgiving, Amazon is doing its best to make sure it's in the running for being one of the most appreciated companies on your list.
The retailer has already kicked off its Black Friday festivities and that translates into huge sales and deals on some of the most-wanted holiday gifts this season.
"Our customers are redefining Black Friday shopping. They want to stay home with family, enjoy some turkey and football and shop the hottest deals from their phone, tablet or PC," said Steve Shure, Amazon's vice president of worldwide marketing. "Starting Nov. 21, we will add new deals as often as every 10 minutes, for eight days, including tech, toys, tools and more."
Amazon is serving up a very sweet deal on two of the most popular smartphones, the HTC One M8 and the LG G3. You'll be able to pick up each smartphone for the very low price of a penny when signing a new 2-year contract with Verizon, AT&T or Sprint.
When we reviewed the HTC One M8, we came away impressed by its aluminum unibody design and top-of-the-line specs, which include a 5-inch 1080p full HD display and quad-core Snapdragon processor. HTC has already confirmed that the smartphone will receive a free update to Android 5.0 Lollipop in the near future. The handset currently retails for $99.99 on Verizon and $199.99 on AT&T and Sprint when signing a new 2-year contract, but you can pick it up for a penny from Amazon.
Amazon is also offering LG's current flagship G3, which boasts an ultra-sharp 5.5-inch Quad HD display and 13-megapixel rear camera. The G3 also happens to be the world's first smartphone to include Laser Autofocus, which guarantees you'll always capture the moment even if the subject is moving or the lighting isn't optimal. The LG G3 is currently $99.99 on Sprint, $149.99 on Verizon and $199.99 on AT&T when signing a new 2-year contract, but will only cost you 1 cent from Amazon.
As always, we'll keep you up to date on all of the best and latest Black Friday deals.
