A leaked document spilled the beans on a compact tablet that Sprint plans to release in March. Called the ZTE Optik, the tablet will be targeting the budget sector with a relatively average spec and a $99.99 price tag.
Amazon has launched a Penny Pincher Sale, where they’re serving up all phones from Verizon, Sprint and AT&T for one cent. The catch? You need to sign up for a new contract with a new carrier, which still sounds like a good deal especially if you’re due for a new line and you’ve been aiming for a premium phone, like the Motorola Droid Razr that normally sells for $299 on Verizon (it’s down to a penny via Amazon’s sale).
Sprint has introduced the Evo Design 4G, a dual-mode phone that supports the network’s CDMA and WiMAX (Sprint’s take on 4G tech), as well as GSM networks. What exactly makes this an interesting device? It features what looks like a pretty decent smartphone spec despite the relatively low price.
Sprint finally launched the Samsung Conquer 4G, an Android 2.3 phone that packs a second-gen 1GHz processor, 3.5-inch screen and a rather basic 3.2-inch camera. But here’s what makes this phone a little more intriguing: the price. Sprint will be offering this phone for $99, making it the first WiMAX phone to start under $100.
Well that was quick. Sprint has just announced that they’ll be launching the Photon 4G on July 31, a little over a month after they first unveiled it. So what’s headed our way by the end of July? It’s a premium phone, no doubt. One that happens to be Sprint’s first international 4G device (it supports global GSM and Sprints own CDMA networks) and first dual-core smartphone. The design certainly stands out, thanks to an “edgy” frame that comes with its own kickstand.
