Sprint, HTC unveil first 4G smartphone
Sprint and HTC unveiled their first 4G smartphone, the HTC EVO 4G, on Tuesday.
As America's first fourth-generation 4G phone, it is equipped with a 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon (QSD8650) processor, an eight megapixel dual flash camera, and a 1.3 megapixel forward-facing camera.
It is also worth mentioning that the HTC phone has a 4.3-inch screen for video viewing and web browsing, 30 percent bigger than the screen of the Apple Inc iPhone.
The device supports both Sprint's CDMA and Clearwire Corp's WiMax network, which has a better connecting speed.
Sprint said it would begin selling the phone this summer. The price of the phone and its wireless service charge will be released a short time before the launch date.
