The news just keeps coming in regarding this, it looks like Walmart is indeed selling the HTC Sensation 4G early for the low price just mentioned of $148.88 to a lucky few. We are seeing reports of this now from others as well but we have some pictures from one of our lucky readers that purcahsed two in Texas.
One of our readers Mdboze was lucky enough to get two Sensation 4G’s for this low price. The manager even checked “the system” to make sure they were ok to start selling today and apparently got the okay. So he quickly purchased two of them and was nice enough to send us the hint. Check it out:
If you have been waiting for the HTC Sensation 4G I think now is the time to run down to your nearest Walmart and give it a shot, I think I’ll be doing the same in a few minutes. We are not sure if they are selling on-contract only or if they will sell them outright for full price as well. More details will be coming shortly as we dig deep.
Thanks again Mdboze!
On my new HTC Sensation that I just bought from Walmart for $148.88 earlier today……
Cool! It has T-Mobiles WiFi Calling. Which allows me to use a WiFi network to make calls, and save my minutes.
Lovin’ it!
Thanks for the tip sir, yea the MyTouch and G2xhave WiFi calling, it works great
it still uses your minutes
No,it does not.
I bought one yesterday from wal mart, i am quoting from the Start Guide book that came with the phone.
“Wi-Fi Calling can improve your coverage and allows you to make phone calls and send messages over a Wi-Fi network (when a Wi-Fi network is available). Unless your rate plan provides otherwise, Wi-Fi Calling minutes count the same as T-mobile cellular calling minutes on your phone bill.”
thats old and they forgot to change it. last month tmobile made wifi calling not cost you minutes. so no it does not count against your minutes to use wifi clling any longer.

they had also tweeted this.
but as you see even on their website it still says it charges minutes so they are just not very good about updating stuff.

just wondering if you got it off contract and unlocked? if so i would like to get it too =D any idea of pricing if its unlocked?
I can confirm HTC Sensation is available from Walmart today for under $150 (in MD/DC area). Unfortunately, I couldn’t buy one, as I am not eligible for the subsidy, as I’m on EvenMorePlus plan. And full price for it is $600 at Walmart, which is higher than T-Mobile advertised…
I bought 2 tonight from walmart in spring hill florida 😀 Thanks to the tip from Android community!
I have been to 4 walmart stores in south Florida and they keep telling me that they don’t sell tmobile phones with a contract! Kinda frustrated
I’m in the same boat. VERY UPSET. I’ve spent two hours calling walmarts from florida city to west palm beach and no luck!!!!
