Sprint and Samsung Telecommunications today introduced two new handsets – the Sprint Power Vision MM-A920 and the Sprint Power Vision MM-A900 (pictured right). Harnessing the speed of Sprint’s Power Vision EVDO network, Samsung’s MM-A900 and MM-A920 handsets enable customers to access the latest news, music and entertainment content at broadband-like speeds. Both devices will support the newly announced Sprint Music Store, which allow users to immediately buy and download complete songs directly to their phone; 30 channels of live and on demand video / audio from Sprint TV and On Demand. Both handsets also offer external music navigation keys for music control on the go.
The MM-A920, (pictured left) with its embedded music player and external music navigation controls, provides access to thousands of songs for instant download and easy access. With an expansion slot that houses up to 512MB of TransFLASH memory, the MM-A920 allows music lovers to easily store and transfer their favorite tunes, images and videos.
Measuring just over a half-inch thick, the ultra-compact MM-A900 is the thinnest Power Vision phone available from Sprint. Made of magnesium, a lightweight metal, the handset’s unique look and feel will delight the fashion-conscious user. In addition, the sleek handset’s large, crisp display and stereo speakers are ideal for watching live TV with full-motion video with vivid sound.
Both the MM-A900 and MM-A920 also offer advanced features including: 1.3 mega-pixel camera (still and video) with flash and zoom, Bluetooth and tethering abilities.
