Years ago, you Sprint may have been one of the last cellular companies that came to mind when you thought of great phones. Having the phone of the year hasn’t even figured into the picture. This summer, it seems that will no longer be the case as  Sprint has announced it’s new flagship phone the HTC EVO 4G.

Being regarded as the next great phone to challenge the iPhone, this phone has everything. From a gigantic and beautiful 4.3″ LCD touch screen, to it’s 8 Megapixel camera and an amazingly fast 1GHz Processor, this Google Android based phone packs everything you could imagine into a handheld device.  It even plays movies in 720p high definition on it’s screen or on a HD television via HDMI cables. The icing on the cake is that it’s also Sprint’s first official 4G WiMAX phone, which means that it will be on the fastest cellular data network in the United States.  This also means that Sprint should be joining AT&T as the only companies that you can both call and use data at the same time.

Price and other information has not yet been released by Sprint, only that the EVO 4G will be in available Sprint Stores this summer.
