According to EngadgetMobile, Best Buy will soon be adding the Samsung Instinct S30 to its stock. In about two weeks tme they'll be offering the device for just $49.99 on contract, which is $80 less than what Sprint itself will supposedly ask for it on April 19th.

Ok, it happened: Sprint and Samsung have finally officially announced the Instinct S30, known as the "Instinct mini". It should appear at Sprint stores on April 19th at a price of $129.99 after a $70 instant savings, a $100 mail-in rebate, and 2-year agreement.

Features include:

• EV-DO Rev. 0 network;

• Visual Voicemail;
• Opera Mini 4.

Samsung's Korean-language press service has leaked the first official photo of its Instinct S30 / Instinct Mini / M810 handset bound for Sprint. At first glance, it looks considerably more put-together than its older brother, and hopefully without any software issues.

Thus, we're expecting an official announcement by Samsung USA or Sprint any time now.

According to a leaked document from BrightPoint, the rumored Instinct M810 Mini and a red version of the LG Lotus will both be available on April 19th. The Instinct Mini will come in graphite and bronze colors at a price of $449.99, while the red LG Lotus will be going for $299.99.

That's not officially confirmed however, but is very likely.

A photo of the so called Samsung Instinct Mini has been spotted in the wild today. While it hasn't been officially announced yet, we expect this to happen any time now. And I think it's safe to say that the new handset is not just an upgrade on the original Sprint Instinct. Stay tuned for more details.

Some blurry live images of what's claimed to be a Samsung Instinct Mini have surfaced today on the SprintUsers forum. No further info was provided, but if BGR is right, the device will be released on April 19th, so we won't have to wait for too long before other details surface.

There's some new information regarding the upcoming Samsung Instinct Mini. Apparently, the device will be called the Instinct S30, and will have specs similar to the original Instinct model. The only difference is the design: a smaller body, the sides are rounded and the lower portion of the phone is thicker than the grown-up Instinct.

There was no word on pricing and availability so far.

The FCC has approved the Samsung SPH-M810 today, which is also known as the Samsung Instinct Mini, but that's unofficial. The only piece of information we managed to dig out was the PTT (Push-to-Talk) capability, which would be rather interesting. More details are to follow shortly.

The expected launch date is April 19th through Sprint.
