Yesterday we told you about Sprint’s latest Android smartphone, the Samsung Transform Ultra, although we didn’t have any details on how much the device would retail for on Sprint.
Sprint has now released some more information and the Samsung Transform Ultra will be available for $79.99 after mail-in rebates when you sign up for a new two-year contract with Sprint.
The Samsung Transform Ultra is powered by a single-core 1GHz processor and features a 3.5-inch HVGA touchscreen display. It comes equipped with 512MB of RAM and 2GB of built-in storage, and it will run on Android 2.3 Gingerbread.
Camera and Battery Specifications
The Samsung Transform Ultra also features a front-facing VGA camera, which is ideal for video calls and selfies, and a rear-facing 3-megapixel camera for capturing everyday moments. The device is powered by a 1,500 mAh battery, which should provide a decent amount of usage time for most users. While the battery capacity may not be as high as some of the more recent smartphones, it is sufficient for the phone’s specifications and intended use.
Additional Features and Connectivity
In addition to its core specifications, the Samsung Transform Ultra includes several other features that enhance its functionality. The device supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS, making it versatile for various connectivity needs. It also includes a microSD card slot, allowing users to expand the storage up to 32GB, which is particularly useful for those who need extra space for apps, photos, and media files.
The phone’s design includes a physical QWERTY keyboard, which slides out from behind the screen. This feature is particularly appealing to users who prefer tactile feedback when typing, as opposed to using an on-screen keyboard. The physical keyboard makes it easier to type long messages or emails, which can be a significant advantage for business users or those who frequently communicate via text.
The Samsung Transform Ultra also comes pre-loaded with several useful applications, including Google Mobile Services such as Gmail, Google Maps, and Google Talk. These apps provide a seamless integration with Google’s ecosystem, making it easier for users to stay connected and productive on the go.
For those interested in multimedia, the device supports various audio and video formats, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of media files. The built-in music player and video player offer a decent entertainment experience, although the 3.5-inch screen may not be ideal for extended video watching sessions.
