We had seen a brief (but official) glimpse of the Samsung Instinct HD for Sprint, and vague promises of it “coming soon”. Luckily,the dumbphone with a nice camera has posed for some press shots here and come with information about a September 27th. launch at price point between $99 and $149. The status of “HD” is still nebulous, so we’re looking forward to see just how good the TV-out connection and video playback really is. In any case, check out the full leaked product description after the jump.
