Nexbit Robin

Late last year, early adopters that backed the Nextbit Robin were able to get the phone for $299.99, while those who waited had to fork over $349.99 to make the device their own.

Since then, the Robin, a cloud-focused Android smartphone from Nextbit, has been priced at $349 for the majority of its time on the market. However, back in May it did drop to $299 for everyone, as long as you wanted to buy the handset from Amazon. Now, just over a month later, Amazon’s back to offer the same deal on the powerful and uniquely-designed smartphone.

Amazon has confirmed that the $100 price drop will be available for the next two weeks, and that it covers both the Mint and Midnight color options. Even better is if you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber, because that means you can get free two-day shipping, too.

The Robin’s a pretty noteworthy handset. Here are the specs if you need a refresher:

  • Processor: Snapdragon 808
  • Memory: 3GB RAM / 32 GB onboard / 100 GB online
  • Screen: 5.2” IPS LCD 1080p
