Instinct
Manufacturer Samsung
Price expected under $300, subsidized
Availability June 2008
Carrier Sprint

 
Sprint hasn’t yet announced pricing for this phone, but it is bound to be one of the cheapest smart phones available; it seems poised to appeal to people who’d like an iPhone but can’t see themselves spending $400 on a phone. Like the iPhone, it features a giant touch-screen that allows for a sideways keyboard, but the phone weighs only 4.4 ounces and gives tactile feedback with every touch. It is also one of the only smart phones besides the iPhone to feature Visual Voicemail.

Hi Rob. So far, we haven't seen anything suggesting that the Xperia X1 will launch in the U.S. during the summer months. Have you?
