Best Buy Says Samsung Instinct Sets Sales Records

Best Buy has announced that the Samsung Instinct smartphone available exclusively from Sprint has set a new high for handset sales in its stores. Best Buy says that the Instinct has become its best selling handset of the last two years.

Best Buy says that the Instinct began breaking sales records within two week of being available at Best Buy Mobile. Best Buy Mobile is the wireless arm of the electronics giant. Best Buy also offers a program for the Instinct called Walk Out Working that makes the phone fully functional when the customer leaves the store for email and all other features.

"Customers can choose from up to 95 different phones at their local Best Buy Mobile, and - increasingly - our customers are gravitating toward feature-rich handsets that let them do more with their mobile device, including e-mail, web browsing, and GPS navigation," said Shawn Score, president of Best Buy Mobile. "Phones such as the Samsung Instinct from Sprint have helped Best Buy deliver the latest and greatest in technology to our customers."
