The Sprint 4G WiMAX network allows for simultaneous voice and data access, and accessing that speedy 4G system just got a lot less expensive. Sprint best-selling handset, the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G Touch Android smartphone, aside from having an incredibly long name, just received an incredibly low retail price. That lowered the price tag on that handset to $0.01 with a two-year activation, and that makes the Epic 4G Touch the most affordable Samsung Galaxy S II model in the United States. That handset was chosen among all 4G mobile tablets, smartphones and laptops that debuted last year as the 2011 Best New Mobile 4G Device at the 4G world conference and Expo.

And it’s easy to see why that handset took down that coveted award. Arriving in average size and weight for a 4G smartphone, the handset provides what is definitely an above average feature set, delivering Android’s Gingerbread operating system out-of-the-box.

That Super AMOLED Plus screen represents visuals in more than 16 million colors, and delivers a pixel density of 260 pixels per inch for an overall screen resolution and clarity of 480 x 800 pixels. A built-in light sensor automatically adjusts the display for the optimal brightness level, and the proximity sensor on board saves battery life by shutting down after periods of inactivity.
That helps deliver an above average talk time of 8.70 hours from a single charge of the 1800 mAh cell, and 11 days standby is also present. The hardware package on board includes and Exynos microchip set, comprised of a dual core 1.2 GHz Exynos central processor and a Mali 400MP chip that is dedicated to handling all the graphics duties.
