An unlocked Samsung Galaxy S6 now goes for just $450 on Amazon

With the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S7 set to be unveiled on February 21st at MWC 2016 in Barcelona, it's time for the year-old Galaxy S6 to be offered at discounted prices. As such, it comes of no real surprise to learn that Amazon is now selling the 32GB Samsung Galaxy S6 starting at $450 unlocked, or about $50 lower than the usual retail price of the handset.

Depending on the color you're after, the handset will set you back anywhere between $450 and $470. The Black Sapphire Samsung Galaxy S6 model is priced at $450, the white model costs $456, the gold model is priced at $458, while the Blue Topaz model will set you back $470. If need be mentioned, these handsets are compatible with T-Mobile and AT&T, but will not work on Verizon or Sprint.

Although it's nearing its first anniversary, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is still one of the best Android smartphones money can currently buy. Most of you probably know a great deal about Samsung's 2016 flagship smartphone, but just in case you need a refresher, here's a short recap.
