Boost Mobile rumored to get the Epic 4G Touch

July 25, 2012/Joe Pawlikowski

Boost Mobile made a quick splash after announcing the availability of WiMax 4G services by offering the EVO Design 4G. Now they could be adding another similar handset, the Samsung Epic 4G Touch. Android blog Phandroid found a device labeled SPH-D710BST in a Sprint user agent profile. The D710 is the Epic 4G Touch, and BST would appear to be Boost. The Epic 4G Touch was last year’s Galaxy S flagship for Sprint, so once again Boost gets a hand-me-down. But it’s still high quality as far as prepaid Android handset go — again, it’s quite similar to the already available EVO Design 4G. The EVO Design is available for $299. Perhaps Boost will undercut that just a bit with the Epic 4G Touch. ]]>

    When is the release date, and does it going to have android 4.0 ics?

      No word on the release date yet. It’s just a rumor at this point. Since the phone was originally released in 2011, I am fairly certain it will not get ICS.

    @ Joe, it might get ICS. The HTC Evo Design 4G on Boost got ICS while the Sprint version released a year earlier has not yet received the update.
