The original Samsung Instinct was a massively successful hit for both Sprint and Best Buy. The Sprint Samsung Instinct broke sales records at Sprint and Best Buy like it was going out of style, and it looks like Best Buy is preparing to blitz the US with more Instinct-goodness. The recently announced Samsung Instinct S30 has been spotted, by Engadget, on a Best Buy flyer with an advertised price of just $49.99!

The Samsung Instinct S30 takes the best of the original Instinct and wraps it up in a sleeker, more refined package. The Instinct S30 sports a 3.2-inch touchscreen display, Bluetooth 2.0 (A2DP), GPS (Sprint Navigation), a 2-megapixel camera and uses Opera Mini 4.2 for desktop-like web browsing. Samsung announced the Instinct S30 with an expected (on-contract) retail price of $129.99, so it seems that Best Buy is willing to undercut the retail price by $80.

We’ll have to wait and see if this Best Buy flyer pans out. At $50, the Instinct S30 may break yet more sales records for Best Buy.
