If you're like many would-be customers still searching high and low for a Nexus 4, you're likely ready to pounce on any source that's got the device at a price lower than the astronomical offerings over on eBay.

Daily Steals Mobile, looking to end your Nexus 4 woes, is selling the 16GB version, unlocked, for $499 with free shipping. That's higher than the Play Store's price for the same device, but on par with T-Mobile's off-contract price.

Before you scroll down and click through to the "Get it now!" page though, it should be noted that – besides charging more than the Play Store – Daily Steals often takes six days to ship orders, with products sometimes arriving weeks later.

If you missed this deal a couple weeks ago, then you're in luck. Today, ebay Daily Deals has the international Galaxy Note II available for a second time. For round two, the price has dropped slightly lower to $579 for the unlocked phone. More specifically, this is for the white, 16GB model.

Again, while the retail price of this phone is around $800, you can still find it online for $660 on a normal day. Today isn't a normal day, however, and the lower price tag will still save you about $80 if you're buying unlocked. If you're after an off-contract deal, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better one for this phone, so grab it while it's hot.

This one goes out to those of you who buy your phones off-contract. The international GSM Galaxy Note II is available today from eBay Daily Deals for a comparatively affordable $589. The model comes with 16GB of on-board storage in a marble white shell.

The normal price is $799, however it can be found online in the area of $680, so this is still a nice $100 or so discount off the normal price. As with most Daily Deals, there is a limited supply available. Domestically, this model should work on AT&T, but as always be sure to check that any unlocked phones will work with your carrier before purchasing.

If you're not impressed by the leak-happy LG Nexus, and don't buy into the somewhat fuzzy rumors that we'll see multiple Nexus phones this year but you're still seeking a pure Google experience in a gorgeous, powerful frame, Daily Steals has just what you're looking for.

The popular 24-hour sale site is offering the Samsung Galaxy Nexus 16GB, unlocked for GSM networks, for just $319.99. For reference, that's about $30 cheaper than Google's current price, and with a mere $5 shipping charge, it's a fantastic deal.

In case you've somehow forgotten the Galaxy Nexus' specs, here's a quick look:

  • 4.65" Super AMOLED display at 1280x720 (that's ~316ppi)
  • 16GB Storage
  • 1GB RAM
  • TI OMAP 4460 dual-core processor at 1.2GHz
  • 5MP rear camera and 1.3MP front camera
  • 1750mAh battery

Again, Daily Steals' discounts run on a 24-hour cycle, so if you've been waiting to pull the trigger on a Nexus device but aren't quite as hyped as others about what we're likely to see this year, hit the link below and take advantage of the discount.

Despite Verizon's best efforts to keep their own variant of the Galaxy SIII locked down, ingenious users haven't been deterred in rooting, flashing custom ROMs, and even bypassing the device's locked bootloader to use custom kernels. The fact remained, however, that VZW's SIII had a locked bootloader which, in general, is a hassle for developers and tweakers hoping to customize the SIII to its fullest potential. It was this fact that made Samsung's promised Developer Edition SIII appealing to many.

Things started to look a little brighter for SIII users on Verizon today though, with the introduction of an unsecure bootloader "leaked by an African-Canadian Sock Monkey," revealed earlier this evening at XDA.

Verizon has taken some flack lately for being the only US carrier to lock the bootloader. Workarounds have been implemented, but Samsung's taken it a step further by announcing a developer version of the device. Today they...well, they haven't quite made good on that promise, but they have created a landing page for the device on their site that announces the 32GB Pebble Blue version will be "coming soon".

2012-07-15_22h40_29

It doesn't look like pre-orders are available yet, although we know the device will retail for $599 when it finally launches. Previously, Verizon had tried to claim that Samsung was responsible for the locked bootloader, but since virtually every other version of the device did not have a locked bootloader, and now Samsung is going out of its way to get an unlocked version in the hands of its customers, it's a little tough to stomach that idea.

Update 7/7/12: The deal is back, this time at Daily Steals Last Call.

With sales expected to tip over 10 million units next month, and release dates being pushed back (or split) because of "overwhelming demand," Samsung's Galaxy SIII may just be the most sought-after Android device to date. Those still looking to grab the unlocked GSM version of the device are in luck today – DailySteals.com is offering the device for $599.99, a significant discount over the phone's normal retail price.

Just in case you've forgotten the specs that have had so many users drooling, here's a quick look:

  • 4.8" HD Super AMOLED display
  • Android 4.0.4 (with TouchWiz overlay)
  • 1GB RAM
  • MicroSD slot (for expandable memory up to 64GB)
  • 8MP rear camera and 1.9MP front shooter
  • 1.4GHz Quad-core processor
  • 2100mAh battery

If you've been waiting for a good deal on an unlocked SIII, we haven't seen a better discount yet.

It's only been a few months since the Galaxy Note started making waves, but we're seeing prices steadily drop on unlocked models. Not that long ago, we spotted the device for $519. Now we've spotted it even lower, available on eBay Daily Deals or $459 off-contract. This device is the international variant, so sorry AT&T T-Mobile users, you'll have to sit this one out if you want 3G.

As the price drops lower and lower, it reaches downright affordable territory. With the Galaxy Nexus available on the Play Store for a mere $400, and the Note here for $459 off-contract just a few months after its initial launch, one can almost start to feel something resembling hope for cheap, contract free phones.

This is the sort of quasi-rumor (it's fairly detailed and comes from the Wall Street Journal, so we're inclined to trust it) that makes me happy to be an Android fan.

According to the WSJ, Google is in cahoots with up to five device manufacturers to provide early access to the next iteration of the Android OS (Jelly Bean, we assume) so it can have an entire "portfolio" of Nexus devices ready by Thanksgiving - that's late November for those without turkey day. It will then sell said devices, phones and tablets, unlocked through (again, presumably) the Play Store, much as it has done with the unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus.

Does your pocket feel too empty with that pathetically small phone in it? What you need is a bigger phone at a reasonable price. It just so happens that the Samsung Galaxy Note is on sale through eBay's Daily Deals today, and even better, it's the unlocked HSPA+ version. For the price of $519.99, you can get the device delivered to your door at no additional cost. That's even better than the last deal at $550.

With the Note spreading across the globe like a flu pandemic, it can be hard to keep track of which version of the phone is which.
