Samsung Instinct HD Specs on Best Buy Site

Aug 23 2009, 11:05am CDT | by Robert Evans

It's gearing up to be a good weekend for Samsung enthusiasts. A reader from Boy Genius has found info on the upcoming Samsung Instinct HD posted on the Best Buy site. An exact launch date was not given, but the site does seem to say that it will be available at some point before September 26th, possibly the weekend of Sunday, September 23rd.

In terms of specs, Best Buy has been good enough to confirm several big rumors for us. First of all, the Instinct HD does have a 5 MP camera with the ability to record and play HD video. HDMI out was also confirmed. This new smartphone will also have WiFi, instant one-click access to most social media sites, and visual voicemail. All together, the Instinct HD is shaping up to be one impressive package.

No information on pricing is out yet, but $150-$200 with a 2-year contract is probably what you should expect to pay.
