Sprint and Samsung Mobile have announced the upcoming availability of the new Samsung Instinct s30 phone which will succeed the popular Samsung Instinct touch-screen phone from Sprint. The Instinct s30 sports a thinner design than the original and it comes in Cobalt Metal or Touch of Copper colors. Like the first Samsung Instinct, this phone's full touch screen features haptic feedback and a virtual QWERTY keypad.
The device runs on Sprint's 3G network, and it has a new "Speech to Action" button which provides voice activation functions for calling, texting, and picture messaging. Also on board is Sprint Navigation powered by Telenav, with GPS-enabled audio and visual turn-by-turn driving directions, one-click traffic rerouting and over 10 million local listings.
The Instinct s30 includes Opera Mini 4.2 as its default web browser, and the device ships with a few games pre-loaded, including “Guitar Hero – World Tour” and “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader” for entertainment on-the-go. The phone uses Microsoft Outlook and Sprint Mobile Email Work to access to corporate email, contacts and calendar from Microsoft Exchange Server 2000, 2003 or 2007 accounts, or IBM Lotus Domino accounts at no additional charge.
