Best Buy is offering Google’s Nexus S smartphone for free today through select Best Buy outlets. According to the news customers can purchase the Nexus S at any Best Buy, Best Buy Mobile specialty store or online at BestBuy.com/Mobile for free with a two-year contract that goes with the free phone.
The Nexus runs Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) and is so far the only phone that works directly with Google Wallet and NFC. If you were hoping to see that sort of integration in the next iPhone, the future doesn’t look good for an NFC-enabled iPhone 5, so that’s just another reason to consider the Samsung-manufacturered Nexus S.
The phone also has a 1Ghz Cortex A8 Hummingbird processor, 16GB of internal flash memory, a 5 megapixel rear-facing camera and a VGA front-facing camera, and a Super AMOLED 4-inch WVGA display (800 x 480).
The offer ends at 11:59 p.m. CST, so hurry. You can buy it both online and at your local Best Buy store.
