Samsung Epic 4G One of Sprint
|
Not the most surprising press release to come out of Overland Park, Kansas today, but Sprint’s announcing that the Samsung Epic 4G – released on August 31st – is one of their best-selling devices on day one. The Samsung Instinct and the Palm Pre once held those crowns, and while the HTC EVO 4G broke the barrier with ease, it was a given that the Samsung Epic 4G would do just as well throughout the prime of Sprint’s massive 4G campaign.
That’s not taking away from the device at all, though. It shares the same standard (and great) set of accolades seen on other Galaxy S devices with the added cherries of a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 4G radios, and it’s also the only Galaxy S phone in the United States (of the four major carriers, anyway) to have a front-facing camera. I’d like to see some official numbers to validate its supposed success, of course, but there really is no reason to doubt
No kidding.
See how many people want an actual hardware keyboard?
Wish this had come to T-Mobile instead.
