The hot contender from Samsung to battle the iPhone has proved it isn’t just another touchscreen device after all, as Best Buy has let it out that Instinct has now taken up the mantle as the best selling cell phone to be offered by them in the last two years. Here’s what Shawn Score, President of Best Buy Mobile had to say:

Phones such as the Samsung Instinct from Sprint have helped Best Buy deliver the latest and greatest in technology to our customers

With it’s drop-dead price tag of $129.99 (after $100 mail-in rebate) and premium features like a large touchscreen display, mobile TV, and GPS, Samsung clearly had a leader on its hands even before Sprint claimed it to be the highest-selling EV-DO cell phone on its network. Let’s hope Samsung’s lucky streak continues on with its other touchscreen devices like the Omnia, which looks to be another sensation waiting to happen.
