Samsung delivers a solid smartphone for Sprint in the Conquer 4G. This mid-range WiMax handset offers 4G speeds to the mobile masses in a smaller, less expensive, yet still capable, package.

Sprint's latest WiMax 4G smartphone is the sub-$100 Samsung Conquer 4G. If you want speedy data services, but don't necessarily want or need the huge footprint and top-end features of Sprint's other WiMax handsets, the Conquer 4G is a good alternative.

Why get this phone when you could get the Nexus S 4G for the same price?

The Nexus has superior specs, and guaranteed update support from Google. The only advantage is it has a memory card slot.

I wouldn't recommend this phone

Samsung's low-end phones are never worth the headache. You'll never get software updates and the phone will have weird bugs that never get resolved.

personally used this phone? Yes past poor performances would suggest not to get this phone. Yet wouldn't those past failures lead to learning and improving for future products? I personally have the Samsung Moment and enjoy the phone.

isn't needed here. If you haven't touched the phone than how do you know it's bad already?

C'mon now.
