Refurbished AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for just $.99, today only

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Let's face it, smartphones are expensive. Even with carrier subsidies, high-end handsets can easily set you back hundreds of dollars. If you want the best, without paying top dollar, AT&T is now offering the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for $.99.

As you probably already guessed, there is a catch here. AT&T's offer is for a refurbished model with a 90 day warranty. You also will be required to sign a two year contract. Additionally, the deal is only for today, so you better make your mind up about it quickly.

So is it worth it going the refurbished route? That's honestly up to you, but keep in mind that refurbished handsets are brought back to original standard and often enough there is really no way on the surface to tell that it isn't a brand new device. Of course some people just like the peace of mind of knowing they are the first person to use their phone.

AT&T is offering the handset in both white or gray, and is even throwing free shipping into the offer. This is a great way to get your hands on a quad-core 5.5-inch monster of a phone, without having to put hardly anything down upfront. Especially when you consider the normal price for a new handset from AT&T is $299.99 with contract.

What do you think, worth biting on this deal or not?

Wow an whole ad for brown version gs4 , so much money is wasted on marketing , they should have used that money for making 32gb and 64gb s4 version and delivering it fast as possible .

  Ummm….the ad was not at all trying to showcase the brown S4. The ad was obviously simply showcasing the phones features. You must not have watched it. There is no need to rush out 32gb & 64gb models. That’s what a SD card is for. I have 150+ apps, tons of music, video, pics, nand backups…you name it. All of this on my 16gb S4. Mind boggling how that can work…eh.

@Piyush
They have money for that… they don’t have to save an ad to do that. We’re talking about production issues. You have to remember Sammy busts out gaziilion smartphones. I hope the new automation process will help with that tho.

  than why they say that there will be 32gb and 64gb version ,its false marketing than , they should tell us that it will be releasing after 4-5months. and still there were very few 64gb version gs3 and note 2.
