Sprint users are about to have a new entry in the low-end Android market. The nation’s number 3 carrier has officially announced the ZTE Fury, a 3.5″ Android 2.3 Gingerbread handset that launch this coming Sunday for $19.99 after a $50 mail-in-rebate.
The ZTE Fury features:
While not the high-end Galaxy Nexus that should be launching as early as next month, the ZTE Fury brings another affordable handset to Sprint’s network for those who don’t need a blazing-fast device. That said, it’s difficult for me to imagine someone picking up the ZTE Fury for $20 when Amazon is offering the likes of the Nexus S 4G and EVO Design 4G for a penny, and the powerful Galaxy S II for $49.99.
Still, if the ZTE Fury manages to tickle your fancy in some way, you’ll be happy to know that you can pick one up at your local Sprint store this Sunday, for $19.99 after $50 mail in rebate. Anyone out there heading to Sprint this weekend?

40Steve Barry 03/09/12 1:27 PM Thumb upThumb down +3Holy cow, you can get an SGSII for $50? Does that require a mail in rebate as well? If not, it would be a horrid idea to get this Fury, as you’re paying more out of pocket for that than a phone that’s probably at least 5x better. Paying $50 for an SGSII vs. $70 for this Fury and then waiting for two months to get $50 back? I’m pretty sure that’s a legit no-brainer.

Be aware though, you have to keep your service and phone for 6 months. If you decide to cancel your service, outside of Amazons 30 day return period, you’ll be charged $250 per cancelled line on top of the etf you pay to the carrier.

Reply 6mdawg924 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0photon has the same pricing structure as the SGII save the add a line is 50 also. (On amazon wireless at least.)
ReplyPut a good case on it and make it waterproof and whala, it’s a kid device….LOL!
ReplyWith specs like that, it could give the iphone 4s a run for it’s money.
