Last month Sprint officially announced its first 4G WiMax Android smartphone to come with a dual-core processor, the Motorola Photon 4G.

First look: Motorola Photon 4G (on Sprint)
For being “No. 3,” Sprint has had a decent offering of 4G Android devices, including Google’s Nexus S, HTC’s EVO and Samsung’s Epic. And while Sunday’s announcement of the XPRT (a rebranded Droid Pro) saw Motorola finally enter the mix, it wasn’t until today’s introduction of the Photon 4G that Motorola had a truly high-end [...]
Sprint will up the 4G upload cap from 1.0 to 1.5 Mbps
Did you know that Sprint’s so-called ’4G’ (a.k.a. WiMax) currently limits your upload speed to 1 Mbps? Some 4G that is. Anyway, the carrier has bold plans to increase that by an earth-shattering 50%. And while in percentage points that sounds pretty awesome, in real life it only means that your maximum theoretical upload speed [...]

With Comcast’s Clearwire mobile broadband service slowly rolling out across the country since its 2009 debut, competition with Sprint’s Now Network is heating up.

Sprint’s Nexus S 4G will be available on May 8 for $199.99
Sprint has officially announced its version of the Google Nexus S, dubbed Nexus S 4G, back in March. However, the one very important thing that was missing from that announcement was the release date. All Sprint had to say was that the Nexus S 4G would become available “this spring”. And today we know what [...]
Sprint may launch the BlackBerry Playbook on May 8
Sprint’s version of RIM’s BlackBerry Playbook (complete with support for WiMax, Sprint’s 4G) was announced back in January, but since then we haven’t heard much about it, even as the ‘generic’ Playbook has become available in the meantime. As for a launch date for Sprint’s Playbook, all we had up until now was a rather [...]
Sprint to get Wi-Fi Motorola Xoom first, 4G WiMax version later
Yesterday we told you that the Motorola Xoom is headed to Sprint, something which has been reported before. Furthermore, yesterday’s news was that it would reach the Now Network with support for WiMax – Sprint’s 4G. And both of those things are true, and are still happening, with one major caveat though.

However, we still don’t know when exactly this phone will start shipping to eager Sprint and/or Best Buy customers. Earlier [...]
Sprint HTC EVO Shift 4G Review
While it is not completely yet clear as to what Sprint’s roadmap looks like over the coming year, I have a feeling there may be several EVO phones included. The EVO Shift 4G is the second device under that name, suggesting Sprint is trying to mimic Verizon’s DROID series. Just like the Droids, I predict [...]
