Samsung Epic 4G (Sprint) Unboxing

[PrincessOTFH]

Can you do a big thorough review of the Samsung Epic 4G with its 2.2 Froyo so everyone can see what it look like? :)

I would appreciate it and it would be helpful.

[wirefly]

@PrincessOTFH I really like the Samsung Epic 4G, especially now that it has Android 2.2. As good as it is (and I still recommend it), it is last year's phone and will likely be replaced in a month or two.

In the meantime, I no longer have a Samsung Epic 4G to review. However, I did do a couple of Schmackdowns with it, including one vs. the HTC EVO 4G and another vs, the HTC EVO Shift. The Epic 4G did well in both those Schmackdowns.

[meyer3738]

[TRTchannel]

Does it also act like an iPod? To like hold music and stuff.

[wirefly]

@TRTchannel Yes, the Samsung Epic 4G (and any other Android phone) will hold music and play it back, much like an iPod.

How much does the phone cost?

[wirefly]

@agent2ez I hate to give you a number, as the price changes all the time. It's really easy to go to Wirefly.com, type in the model of the phone and get the price. The price may also vary depending on whether you get a new 2-year contract, extend an existing contract or buy the phone outright. It's best if you go to Wirefly and check for today's price.

3 super amole display iknow the evo is .3 inch bigger but not better

4 it comes with headphones and u dont have to remove the battery to get to remove the sd card

5the epic is a bit faster even runnig android 2.1 imaging 2.2

[enjoiorange]

Gonna buy a phone from sprint

Camera is a big thing for me

So should I get this or the evo

Some say the MP doesn't mean a great camera so I am torn

[MarroquinVidal]

@enjoiorange  true MP don't really count for an example the Iphone 4 has 5 MP and the Evo has an 8 MP by far the Iphone has the better camera

[TheFuturesolider]

Seriously man great phone and features but its highly priced i guess it makes sense considering its all advanced.

[Twisteddreamer78]

Just got the epic today no complaints thus far. Seems to be pretty bad ass thus far.

[evilsandwich2]

I need to upgrade but I'm not sure which to get. This phone or the HTC EVO...

[DarknessAlchemist00]

@DreadRaptor85 It depends. Do you prefer QWERTY keyboards? Would you like a better screen? Go for the Epic. :D

[THAxViLLAiN]

I'm really glad that sprint is starting to get some very good phones. This is very good for them. Now all they have to do is keep up the progress and not let it get to their head. And your videos are awsome :) !!!!!
