Sprint Nextel Corp. has announced its iPhone killer, the Samsung Instinct. The device features a touch-screen, and looks similar to the design of the popular Apple phone. The Samsung Instinct will be offered on the Sprint network and will feature a virtual keyboard which will appear in a very similar manner to how the iPhone keyboard works. There will also be a built-in Web browser as well as the ability to play music and video on the device.

Sprint stated that the Instinct will release this coming June. The wireless company has stated that the service plans for the Instinct will be similar to how AT&T sets up their Apple iPhone plans. Those who want to buy the Instinct will have to sign up for at least a $69/month plan. This will include unlimited texting as well as Internet access. The plans AT&T and Apple offer for the iPhone all include unlimited data, or Internet access as well.

The Instinct will ship with a replacement battery as well as a 2GB memory card. There is no word yet on the exact pricing of the Instinct, but it is believed to be under $300.

  • More of an iPhone rip-off than an iPhone killer, surely? Bears a striking resemblance to the Prada LG, too. Just sayin'!

  • I agree. Samsung Instink?

  • I kind of doubt its iPhone-killing capabilities. By June I'd expect the new version of the iPhone with 3G capabilities to be announced/released anyway.

  • Doesn't really matter as Sprint/Nextel will most likely be out of business by 2010, with Alltel soon to follow.
