Best Buy to offer latest Verizon smartphone

2/16/2010

MINNEAPOLIS Best Buy announced that consumers looking to purchase the new Motorola Devour smartphone can do so at Best Buy and Best Buy Mobile standalone stores beginning Feb. 25. The Motorola Devour is the third smartphone from Verizon Wireless that runs on Google’s Android operating platform.

The retailer also announced that it is hosting a pre-sale beginning Feb. 16. Consumers can take advantage of the in-store pre-sale by visiting their local Best Buy or Best Buy Mobile standalone store where they can schedule a pick-up time after Feb. 25 and reserve their spot by purchasing a $50 Best Buy Gift Card.

 

In addition, Best Buy noted that customers can get all the rebates associated with the smartphone purchase without having to mail in any special forms.

 

“Being one of the first retailers to feature the Motorola Devour is a win-win for Best Buy Mobile and our valued customers,” said Scott Moore, VP marketing for Best Buy Mobile. “We saw great response with the Droid by Motorola, the first Android device for Verizon Wireless, and we expect the same response with the Motorola Devour. Our employees get really excited for these big smartphone launches and we are looking forward to helping bring the Motorola Devour to the marketplace.”
