Verizon has had some pretty decent deals as of late and they continue to discount some great 4G LTE devices. They are now offering an online only deal where you can pick up an HTC Rezound or LG Spectrum for the low price of $99 on a new 2-year contract. That’s a great deal when you consider both devices are packing a dual-core 1.5GHz processor. There certainly hasn’t been a lack of deals on smartphones, especially with Amazon constantly outdoing the carriers. Now’s a good time to grab a high-end device for a sub $100 price, so if you’re interested in either of these 4G LTE phones, hit the break for a quick spec refresher and links to purchase them.

Verizon appears to be on an SD removal kick. We saw them do it with the DROID RAZR and now they’re doing it with the DROID Bionic. You can now grab a DROID Bionic without the extra 16GB microSD card for $99 on contract. This move shouldn’t bother anyone as you can still add your own microSD card should you need the extra storage. At least now, you can catch a break in price on a 4G LTE device that sports a dual-core 1GHz processor and a 4.3″ 960×540 qHD display.

AT&T may be playing catch up when it comes to expanding their LTE network but they haven’t slowed down their roll out. Markets in both Florida and North Carolina were lit up today, bringing the blazing fast LTE speeds to any customer owning a 4G LTE device. Areas affected include:
