 T-Mobile Nexus 4  Verizon Droid DNA enters sub-$50 club

If you are after the latest modern smartphone you will have to expect to pay a premium price for the device even if its via a mobile carriers two year contract. Although if you can wait a few months we often see prices come down with some good deals to be had, and now the Verizon HTC Droid DNA joins the T-Mobile Nexus 4 in the sub $50 club.

Last week we told you about the offer US carrier T-Mobile is offering on the Nexus 4, which can be had for only $49.99 after a $50 mail in rebate. This offer still has five days to go and ends on the February 18th, but if the LG Nexus 4 is not your thing how about the HTC Droid DNA?

At the time of writing online retailer Wirefly will sell you that handset for the same $49.99 price that even includes shipping. This offer is only open to new customers that agree to a new two year contract on Verizon Wireless, which will surely tempt many.

For your money you get a device that features a Full HD 5-inch display with 441ppi pixel density powered by a quad core processor clocked at 1.5GHz. Other features include 16GB of non-expandable memory, 2GB of RAM, 8 megapixel rear camera, and a 2.1 megapixel front facing shooter.That’s an awful lot of phone for your money and the display is one of the main features that pulls Android fans towards the handset.
