Samsung Instinct: How Serious is Sprint?

BrianB (1351 days ago)

Samsung Instinct June 20Sprint’s iPhone Killer may be available to Sprint customers on June 20. If you remember, 3G iPhone is slated by many insiders for a June 9 release and so AT&T’s phone will be two weeks ahead of Sprint’s. We expect a lot of media hype, besides that which is generated by Apple’s marketing budget, which should be lower than $100 million – Sprint’s budget for promoting the Instinct. AT&T will have every advantage: the Apple hype machine, which is the envy of rivals, and a phone design, which is yet to be revealed and, knowing Apple, should be awesome, among other reasons.

The Sprint Instinct is nice, and looks more like a cellphone than the iPhone, which harken design-wise to the time when PDAs ruled. Still, the most popular phone in the world will not be taken down so easily, even with a hundred million bucks backing it up.
