Sprint currently has two powerful, high-end Android phones available for sale at the $199 price point: the Epic Touch 4G (essentially a Galaxy S II but with a larger display) and the Motorola Photon 4G. Both devices offer dual-core CPUs with a gigabyte of RAM, plus WiMax 4G connectivity on Sprint. The display on the Photon 4G is higher resolution with 960x540 pixels, but the Super AMOLED Plus display of the Epic 4G Touch is a sight to behold, thanks to fantastic contrast. In this video, we compare the hardware and software of the Epic Touch 4G and the Photon 4G, plus compare web browsing speed, gaming performance, boot up times, and much more. Stick around towards the end of the video where we compare HD video recording performance.
Beyond the displays, the rest of the specs are quite similar. As with most Motorola high-end smartphones, the Photon 4G does HDMI out without a special adapter.

Battle lines have been drawn, and the device manufacturers are trying hard to recruit new members to their ranks. In this video, we take a closer look at the software of the Motorola Photon 4G for Sprint. A winner or loser once the fight is done? You'll have to watch to see. 
In this video, we are taking a closer look at the hardware of the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch. As one of the most highly anticipated devices to arrive in the US, will Sprint be able to pull in new users and keep existing ones on its network with this device? 
In this video, we are taking a closer look at the software of the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch. There is a minor amount of bloatware included, but at least some of it can be uninstalled. The new Motion based activities are useful, and the general UI is very snappy. 
The "weapon of choice", as Sprint would have us believe, is the newest to their mobile lineup - the Motorola Photon 4G. With a body whose beveled corners encase its powerful Tegra 2 1Ghz dual-core processor, this phone certainly feels good in the hand. Motorola's first 4G device (and a world phone as well) on Sprint looks to be a solid contender, but will it be able to win the battle of the consumers? Read on for the full review! 
We know this is the moment many of you have been waiting for! The just announced Epic 4G Touch, Sprint's Samsung Galaxy S II is now available online from the carrier. 
After seeing the official press renders of the LG Marquee -- the Optimus Black, really -- we knew that an official Sprint announcement was on its way. The carrier has made the phone official with an availability date of October 2. 
If you are currently on Sprint and considering the Galaxy S II -- under the name of Sprint Epic 4G Touch -- which we have recently unboxed, you can also get to know the phone a little better before purchasing as its user manual has been made available by the carrier. 
The Samsung Galaxy S II is one of the most highly anticipated devices to arrive in the US, and Sprint is the first to receive it in the form of the Epic 4G Touch. With a massive 4.52 inch Super AMOLED Plus screen, a 1800mAh and a Samsung Exynos dual-core 1.2GHz processor - the phone certainly looks to be quite the powerhouse. 
It looks like Sprint's version of the LG Optimus Black -- dubbed the LG Marquee, we recently learned -- will bring a little less black than the global version, adopting a gray pinstripe for the back battery cover. Other than that slight change, however, Sprint's LS855 looks very much like the P970 which has been selling internationally for some months now. 
Watch this week's iReview as we go through all things Cool and Not So Cool inside the world of Apple's iOS devices. In today's show we talk about the iPhone 5 test photo we unveiled last week and how the image sensor raises the bar in what to expect for the next generation device. We go through the N94 prototype and how it already gained FCC approval through some leaks within iOS 5. We round up all the Sprint iPhone 5 rumors and tell you why this phone will matter a lot to some. We also go through the recent pre-order strategy launched by Deutsche Telekom, even if there is still no real name for the iPhone they are preparing customers for. We talk about the release of iTunes 10.5 beta 8, an HTML 5 version of Google Music and other recent software updates. Finally, we end the Cool section with an odd new strategy from Adobe to port Flash based video on iOS devices. 
The fight continues for the hearts and minds of today's phone consumers. In this video, we take a closer look at the hardware of the Motorola Photon 4G for Sprint. Thus far, impressions are very favorable, with some caveats. Is it enough to cause users to defect over to Sprint? We shall see. 
Kyocera's Oblique first garnered our attention when some pics of the QWERTY slider showed up in early August, foretelling the smartphone's eventual arrival on Sprint. Late in the month, a leaked Sprint document showed the phone again, but this time after undergoing a name-change to the Kyocera Milano. We had been expecting the phone to launch on September 9, and right on schedule, Sprint has officially announced the Milano's addition to its line-up starting tomorrow.
