Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE Review Posted: 16 Oct 2012 09:00 AM PDT Samsung has been on a huge roll as of late, and they’re looking to continue that with the Galaxy Victory 4G LTE. The Victory is available at a Sprint store near you for the low price of $99.99 (after $50 mail-in rebate) for new and upgrading customers. While it does boast some decent specs, my two weeks with this device were admittedly not the best. The device as a whole is solid and would certainly satisfy anyone looking for Android on a budget.

Sprint to offer Galaxy Note II at $299 starting October 25 Posted: 16 Oct 2012 06:35 AM PDT Sprint today confirmed the pricing and release date for the Samsung Galaxy Note II.  Outside of U.S. Cellular, this is the only carrier to step forward with a cost for the smartphone/tablet experience.  That said, look for the Samsung Galaxy Note II to arrive on October 25 with a $299.99 price tag, with a two-year service agreement.  Look for these in either Marble White or Titanium Grey at a Sprint store near you.  Considering Samsung has an event slated for next week (October 24), we anticipate other providers to announce similar pricing and time frames.
