Samsung Epic 4G Faces Off Against the Competition

No surprise, but Sprint is gearing up for the launch of the aptly named Samsung Epic 4G, and they want all of their employees to know how truly apt that name is. The above comparison chart touts some of the major features of America’s second 4G phone, and it can certainly handle itself against it’s big brother Evo 4G, as well as the iPhone 4, Droid Incredible, and Droid X. It’s Super AMOLED screen will be a spectacular blend of size and quality and the slide-out QWERTY will be great for those types that need the soothing touch of an all-natural keyboard. An interesting feature is the DLNA support rather than the HDMI, good for those with compliant technology but not so great for those that don’t. Still, as this market still hasn’t blossomed quite yet, either way isn’t really a deal breaker.The observant reader will also notice it mentions the same $10 Premium Data charge associated with the Evo, sure to be a mandatory add on for all 4G phones.

Is there another source for this aside from Engadget? They don’t cite one either and I’d like to be able to read this.

I believe it was a leaked document that was sent into Engadget. It looks exactly like internal Sprint documentation.

I really like the DLNA integration. Using Tversity to watch videos on an XP machine on my ps3 now.

Would be nice to stream to the Evo like this. Not dumping my Evo for Epic but cool nonetheless

Thanks for the information, I am truly looking forward to the Samsung Epic 4G, although I have constantly been extremely interested in gizmos, for a long time I have already been searching for my 1st smartphone and I did not acquire it yet. The reasons are really simple: each couple of months there is a revolution in the industry (hard to make a decision!) and prices here in Brazil are quite abusive. Maybe I would enter this world in great style with a Samsung Epic 4G. I hope so.
