Samsung Instinct Breaks Records

We are happy to hear from Sprint that the award-winning Smartphone, Samsung Instinct, has become the fastest-selling EVDO handset in the first week of availability! The phone, as you already know, was released on June 20 and broke all the records.

"We had high expectations going into the launch so our initial order to Samsung was the largest for any Sprint EVDO handset to date," said John Garcia, President of Sprint's Wireless Division. "The strong early response tells us that wireless customers recognize Instinct as a highly-innovative and convenient touch-screen device combined with the fast speeds available on the largest national mobile broadband network. In the first few days of availability, many Instinct devices were purchased by existing customers upgrading their wireless device - we thank our customers for their endorsement of this device, our Simply Everything pricing plan and our company."

After attending the Sprint’s live presentation of the Smartphone we can say that we’re not surprised of its success, but we are sad to hear that this led to temporary shortages of the device at some locations across the United States. We are also sure that Sprint will bring more for you.

"We know we have a winner in Instinct, especially since Sprint's EVDO Rev A network offers five times more mobile broadband coverage than the AT&T 3G network based on square miles," added Garcia. "We appreciate the support from our customers and we are committed to working with Samsung to ensure that every customer who wants an Instinct can get one."

From what we read while browsing through customer’s reviews, we know now that old customers love Samsung Instinct, new customers consider it to be an all-in-one entertainment device for travelling, while others were anxious to get it after reading our reviews on Techpin and CameraPhonesPlaza, and become addicted to the idea of owning a one of the coolest mobile phones.
We have to mention again its low price of just $129.99 including a 2-year contract after a $100 mail-in rebate.
