Sprint Announces the HTC Flyer As the EVO View 4G, Launching This Summer

Sprint has just made it official. So, "the next big EVO thing. Only bigger." has turned out to be the HTC EVO View 4G - as expected. This tablet is exactly like the Flyer with its 7-inch 1,024 x 600 resolution display, a 1.5GHz CPU, a 5MP camera, a front-facing 1.3MP camera, 32GB of internal storage, and Sense UI over top of Android except that this one has WiMAX capabilities to take advantage of the carrier's 4G network. The display is capacitive but Sprint is throwing in a capacitive stylus with it as well so you can use that if you don't want to dirty the screen with your greasy fingers. This will be available in the Summer for an unknown price.

BlackBerry 4G Playbook Page Now Live On Sprint, Still On Track For Summer

Sprint has just put up a new page for the 4G BlackBerry Playbook. This one should be like the original Playbook but this one will, obviously, feature WiMAX connectivity. Unfortunately, this one's still scheduled for a Summer launch so don't think that this one's coming sooner just because the page is up. We should be seeing more of this tomorrow at the carrier's CTIA event. Check it out on Sprint if you don't believe me.

Sprint's CTIA Announcements Leak: HTC EVO 3D, EVO View 4G, Motorola XOOM, BB Playbook

Well, Sprint's CTIA announcements have just been spoiled. BGR has just broke the news that they'll be announcing the HTC EVO 3D, EVO View 4G, Motorola XOOM, the Samsung Rant 3, and a WiFi-only BlackBerry Playbook as well as one with WiMAX connectivity. Pretty awesome stuff. Now, let's get into the specs, shall we?

First off, we have the EVO 3D which is said to feature a 4.3-inch qHD 3D display (960 x 540 resolution), a dual-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon 8660 CPU, a 5MP camera, a 1.3MP front-facing camera, a 1,730mAh battery, an HDMI port that will output 1080p and even 720p video, 1GB of RAM, 4GB of ROM, and Android 2.3 with the Sense UI. The smartphone is also said to have the Blockbuster 3D app as well as YouTube 3D. If you're buying into the 3D trend then this may actually be the phone for you.

Next up is reportedly the EVO View 4G. This one will be sporting a 7-inch display (1,024 x 600 resolution), an aluminum unibody, a 5MP camera, a 1.3MP front-facing camera, 1GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 3.0 support, a 4,000mAh battery, DLNA, HDMI output, and Android 2.3 "Gingerbread" with the Sense UI. It's pretty much exactly like we've been hearing. An HTC Flyer with WiMAX capabilities. Not exactly the best tablet on the market.

Moving along we have the XOOM which will be exactly like the Verizon model but it'll have WiMAX capabilities instead. No clue if it'll initially ship with the device. There's also word on the Samsung Rant 3 which is the most uninteresting of the bunch. This one is said to be a 3G touchscreen handset which is reportedly eco-friendly since it'll have a solar panel on the door... or something like that. The last one is the BlackBerry Playbook which Sprint will be announcing. It'll come in two models, like I said: WiFi-only and WiMAX. I'm assuming there'll be a regular 3G model as well. Definitely quite a big showing for Sprint, so this event should be exciting.

Sprint-Branded Motorola XOOM Spotted, Will It Have WiMAX?

A new kind of Motorola XOOM has just leaked and, no, it's not the WiFi-only one or something XOOM with integrated 4G (LTE) connectivity. If you take a look at the photo above, it's actually a XOOM with Sprint branding on it. Awesome stuff. Furthermore, we don't know if this will be a WiMAX model but maybe it'll be upgradeable just like the XOOM on Verizon is. Since all that leaked is a photo, we don't know when this will be available.

Sprint Set To Announce New PTT Android Phones From Motorola and Kyocera

Sprint has just announced something that's pretty good for PTT and Android users. They have just mentioned that they'll be announcing a new "Gold Standard" CDMA push-to-talk Android phone in the near future. Furthermore, it looks like they have two of them in the pipe: one from Motorola and the other from Kyocera. Details are widely unknown right now but it'll be an Android phone with a QWERTY keyboard along with a touchscreen display. Sounds pretty good so far and it should be a mid-end handset.

Wirefly Now Taking Pre-Orders For the HTC Arrive On Sprint

If you've been waiting for the HTC 7 Pro in the US then you should know that it'll be hitting Sprint as the HTC Arrive but you should already know that. Wirefly is actually taking pre-orders for the phone right now if you're willing to pay up $49.99 which isn't much. If it's not for a new account then it'll actually cost you $149.99 but that's still cheaper than the $199.99 price tag that it'll be available for on March 20th.

We've already seen this handset in the wild before, sporting a QWERTY keyboard, and it was sporting Nextel branding so that's where it's headed.

Sprint To Announce Nexus S 4G, EVO 3D, and EVO View Tablet At CTIA This Year?

By now you should've already heard that Sprint will be announcing a couple of devices at CTIA this year. Coming from an Engadget tipster is word that the carrier will be announcing the Samsung-built Nexus S 4G at the event. Hopefully, it won't just be a Nexus S with WiMAX - let's hope they upgraded some internal components as well (dual-core CPU, please!). The other two devices are said to be the EVO 3D and the EVO View tablet - both should be coming from HTC. The EVO 3D should feature some high-end specs along with a 3D display (and hopefully WiMAX), while the EVO View tablet could just be the Flyer's CMA variant. We'll see what happens in a few weeks.
