Breaking news, information, and analysis on the latest mobile phones and mobile technology
Two of Sprint’s hottest phones will soon be put out to pasture with newer hardware on the way. The screenshot below shows a handful of other handsets that will also be going in the coming months. In late July or early August, you’ll no longer be able to grab the BlackBerry Style or Motorola i1.…
A leaked roadmap from inside Sprint tells us that they’re planning multiple devices to launch on August 21. Among them are the BlackBerry Bold 9930, Torch 9850, and the entry-level WiMAX-enabled Samsung Conquer (D600). The Motorola Photon (MB855) will be dropping July 31, while the new BlackBerry Curve 9360 along with a few new Kyocera phones…
The Sprint Nexus S 4G is a good way to get a pure Google experience but if you’re like a lot of people, you may have had trouble with the whole “4G” thing. Well, Sprint has heard your complaints and a software update will be rolling out July 25 to fix some data speed issues.…
Sprint has just published one of the most hyperbolic press releases to ever cross the IntoMobile news desk. They’re declaring that they will soon offer businesses complete freedom from the the 2 year contracts that they shackle most consumers with. The new plans will let business pool together minutes, like a family plan, and they’ll…
I was definitely happy to see that Sprint will be making an effort to remove bloatware from its Android phones but I also think that the argument against preloaded apps and software can get a bit out of hand. As long as it can be uninstalled, I have no problem with a carrier preloading apps…
Sprint is making a commitment to cut back on Android bloatware, or what we users like to call “crapware,” on its Google devices. All the major wireless carriers in the U.S. add a bit of Android bloatware, or carrier-branded software that users can’t delete from smartphones, to Google-powered handsets. And it is very annoying. Sprint…
Sprint plans to make a major announcement regarding its 4G plans, according to comments from CEO Dan Hesse and this will immediately start rumors that the third-largest carrier plans to light up its own 4G LTE network like Verizon and AT&T have (or will soon have in Ma Bell’s case). “We’re going to come out…
There’s been a lot of speculation as to when the Samsung Galaxy S 2 will be landing in the US, if ever. While we still weren’t certain as to what was to be announced, when Samsung canceled its New York event back in May, many people believed it was the official announcement of the Galaxy…
I guess we’ll have the need for improved cash-flow to blame for Sprint’s decision to get back to mail-in rebates. I can’t think of any other reason for partially killing instant rebates, which are a much better solution as far as end users are concerned. According to SprintFeed, the CDMA/WiMAX carrier will return to mail-in…
Sprint has dropped price of the Nexus S 4G to $99.99 (down from the original $199.99). It’s common sense, when you think about it — if the HTC Evo 3D costs $199.99, Sprint’s version of Nexus S must be cheaper. The reason is obvious – Evo 3D has far superior hardware under the hood, rocking…
