Sprint Offers Cheaper WiMAX 4G in Samsung Conquer 4G Android Smartphone

Sprint has made the availability of WiMAX 4G connectivity cheaper, teaming up with Samsung to launch Conquer 4G Android smartphone at $99 only.


The Samsung Conquer 4G will join the growing list of mobile devices that support Sprint’s WiMAX 4G





network, which started with the HTC EVO 4G, the best-selling smartphone in Sprint history.


Nearly one and a half years have passed since Sprint offered its first WiMAX 4G-capable Android smartphone, and including the Samsung Conquer 4G, the roster increased to seven smartphones, excluding 15 other devices that include hotspots, netbooks, USB modules, and tablets during the one year anniversary of EVO 4G’s launch.


However, the previous Sprint offerings, including EVO, EVO Shift, EVO 3D, Photon, Epic, and Nexus S, launched at hefty prices, considering 4G connectivity is an expensive feature and the smartphones had high-end specs.


The Samsung Conquer 4G is set to change that though, launching at only $99, with a new two-year Sprint contract and $50 rebate.


The $99 offer is also the current price for Samsung Nexus S, which launched at $200 last May.


The Samsung Conquer 4G touts a 3.5″ 320 x 480 HVGA touchscreen display, 1 GHz processor, Android 2.3 Gingerbread, 3.2-Megapixel camera with flash and a 1.3 megapixel front camera for video calling, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity, stereo Bluetooth support, and WiMAX hotspot capability for up to five devices.


The Samsung Conquer 4G will hit the shelves of Sprint retailers on August 21.

  1. The problem of Samsung Conquer 4G Android Smartphone is low resolution and if will compare the price tag between Conquer 4G Android and HTC EVO 4G is no difference but HTC EVO 4G has better resolution than this. i don't think it will able to beat HTC EVO 4G
