    Sprint Clubs the Instinct HD Over the Head With a $250 Price

    The first rule of dumbphones: They shouldn't cost more than smartphones. This shall not be broken. The second rule of dumbphones, or really all phones: An announcement should be accompanied by useful information about the product. So, Sprint—what the hell? UPDATED More »

    Sonim XP3 Review: Boiled Alive

    You might not know it, but you've heard about the XP3: It's that phone that's always getting drenched, elephant-smooshed or shot, and surviving. Well, I finally got one, and the timing couldn't be better. XP3, I'm going to eat you. More »

    After the beering, the hammering, the shooting, and the elephant stomping, it's fair to say that, on the toughness front, Sonim's gotten their point across. Now, after months of teases, you can actually buy the XP3, unlocked, for $400. [BestBuy]

    Samsung Reclaim Corn-Fed Ecophone Impressions and Gallery

    Yes, it's a dumbphone, but it's a dumbphone with ideals. The Samsung Reclaim is as much an environmental statement as it is a slide-out QWERTY messaging phone. More »

    Choosing which aspect of the Samsung Sprint Reclaim is most important will depend heavily on your worldview. Is it that the handset is made from environmentally-friendly bioplastics? That it's Sprint's first 3G QWERTY phone to touch $50 on contract? More »

    Sure enough, that mysterious baby brick sitting next to the stretched-out BL40 is a direct followup to the last generation of LG Chocolates, called the BL42. The 3G slider is rumored to have a 240x320 display and a 5-megapixel camera. More »

    Sprint Instinct S30 Now Available, Awkward $130 Price Confirmed
