Ready to dump out a chunk of change to AT&T for your next smartphone? Need to know how much to pull out of the “non-essentials” (food, hygiene, etc) savings? This might help.
BGR managed to finagle some details over the weekend, shedding a light on the price points for the HTC Pure (Touch2), HTC Tilt2 (Touch Pro2), along with the long-fabled Garmin-Asus nuvifone G60.
According to what they’re hearing, pricing is as following:
- Tilt2: $199.99 ($149.99 after mail in rebate) with contract, launching around mid-October.
- Touch Pro2: $299.99 with contract, making their Touch Pro2 cheaper than T-Mobile and Sprint’s, but not Verizon’s.
- nuvifone G60: $299.99 with contract, which seems pretty damn high to us when compared to other handsets that AT&T offers for less.
So what do you think – are any of these calling your name? Are you as shocked as we are to see the nuvifone G60 finally coming stateside?
was waiting for nuviphone to announce the carrier back in the day, was hoping for verizon, but disappointed again. Then was waiting for omnia 2 with verizon, would still be waiting. So i got the touch pro 2. $149 couldnt say no. i like it a lot but opera to always recognize my touch for links it just higlights the damn words. and media player could use a tune up. Now i just wait for winmo 6.5 and hope for the best
The original report says pure is the “touch DIAMOND 2″, not the touch 2 – a totally different phone. Was this a mistake, or an update to the BGR report?
Tilt 2 and Touch Pro 2 are actually the same, so what actually do you mean??
napie – Yeah, the tilt 2 and the tp2 are the same. I wasn’t talking about that at all. I was referring to the fact that this story says the PURE will be a TOUCH2, where the original BGR story says the Pure is a TDiamond2. That was my point… nothing to do w/the tp2 or tilt/2
The TP2 and Touch 2 are completely different phones, maybe that wasn’t clear?
