The AT&T flavor of Samsung’s Galaxy S II smartphone is now available for purchase through Amazon for only $0.01 with the signing of a contract agreement.

The leading handset vendor is gearing up for the release of a successor for Galaxy S II, and it makes sense for the older device to see price drops.

At the moment, the Samsung Galaxy S II 4G (AT&T) is listed at Amazon Wireless with said price tag attached to it for monthly agreements, and at $599.99 (450 Euros) for those who would like to grab it without committing to a contract.

The device will provide users with great performance levels courtesy of its 1.2GHz application processor, as well as with great data speeds on AT&T’s HSPA+ network.

The handset also packs a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen and an 8-megapixel camera on the back.
