Samsung Epic 4G Android Phone (Sprint)

The Samsung Epic 4G runs on Sprint's new and expanding 4G network, offering simultaneous voice and data connectivity and download speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Additionally, the phone can still connect to 3G data services in areas not currently served by Sprint's 4G network.


The Epic 4G's brilliant Super AMOLED touchscreen display offers the best representation of color on a mobile phone that matches original content more than 100 times the contrast quality of other leading displays. It also features faster response time (which reduces "ghosting" images), wide viewing angles to prevent blurring or distortion, and a thinner design to offer more accurate and responsiveness to touch.

In addition to the dynamic screen, the Epic 4G's six-axis motion sensing uses an accelerometer and geo-magnetic sensor to fine-tune its ability to interpret simple movements and provide an optimal gaming experience. When the phone tilts up and down or left and right, the game can immediately respond in the same direction. To get you started, a demo of the popular Asphalt 5 racing game is preloaded.

I've had this phone for a while now and really enjoy it. It's the best phone I've had in a long time and really helps in my travels! Since it has a bigger screen than other phones my favorite app looks amazing on it and I love that! The app is called DISH Remote Access (free) and comes from my TV provider/employer DISH Network. I have a Sling Adapter from them as well hooked up to my equipment at home so that way I'm able to watch all of my subscribed programming recorded or live on my Epic anywhere I go in the world. So it's a great easy way to keep up with my favorites and local news while I'm away. I bought my Adapter for $99 but act now and you can practically get it for free. Check it out http://bit.ly/jizbUh. :)
