Wow, what a phone....damn you sprint! This makes my moto droid look so weak.

I hope this can be unlock and use on any GSM network!!

LOL, it's Sprint, so - CDMA, good luck getting it on a GSM network :))

Try jamming your SIM card into the SD card slot, maybe it'll work. If it doesn't fit use a hammer to get that sucker in the rest of the way.

This method absolutely works. I endorse it 100%.

15. tuminatr posted on 28 Jun 2010, 16:40

did you guys miss the fact that this is the first GSM/ CDMA android for international roaming

17. cellslanger posted on 28 Jun 2010, 17:47

Where did you read that? There is nothing mentioned in this article or in the specs about that...

19. tuminatr posted on 28 Jun 2010, 18:02

on engadget, but it was the preliminary spec guess we will see when it launches

6. droidman posted on 28 Jun 2010, 10:05

Woooow sprint is on a go!!!

9. bossmann20 posted on 28 Jun 2010, 10:56

this is goin to give the evo a run for its money lol

10. zerglisk posted on 28 Jun 2010, 12:01

It's a smart move by Sprint. First introducing Evo 4G crazy phone to attract attention then quickly introduce another 4G phone with QWERTY for some ppl's special liking...

16. Vegas89 posted on 28 Jun 2010, 17:03

Yep, it's funny cause it's pretty much the same thing the did with the Hero and Moment, Hero came first followed by the higher stat Moment a few months later, now EVO came first followed by the higher stat Epic. Sprint gives you a cookie and then shows you the cake later lol

29. M3rkSauce posted on 19 Jul 2010, 14:46

haha? besides the slide out keyboard the epic has nothing on the EVO..coming straight from a sprint rep. In this case i'd say Sprint gave you the entire cake first and then suprised you with a delicious muffin (epic). haha

12. omarc26 posted on 28 Jun 2010, 12:41

will this phone have a front facing camera for video calling like the evo?

13. bossmann20 posted on 28 Jun 2010, 15:04

yep!

14. myclevername posted on 28 Jun 2010, 16:20

This puppy needs to come to T Mobile

22. pingpong posted on 28 Jun 2010, 22:19

Tmo is getting the Vibrant. Same thing with no keyboard. Not a big deal breaker for me!

18. jrcrow79 posted on 28 Jun 2010, 17:59

keyboard looks like droid 1

20. jrcrow79 posted on 28 Jun 2010, 18:27

21. ImJustMe posted on 28 Jun 2010, 20:39

Wow, not too many bad things being said about Sprint and this phone, in this thread, I see. Looks like Sprint is quieting you Apple/VZW Fanboy losers.

26. mdw92581 posted on 29 Jun 2010, 09:17

Sprint got it right. This is the perfect phone IMO
