LG Viper: First LG 4G LTE, on Sprint


Even though Sprint Nextel is yet to officially announce the launch of its new 4G LTE network, recent reports have revealed that the first LTE-capable handset to be launched by the carrier will be the LG Viper.
Boasting the 4G LTE speeds on the Sprint network, the LG Viper will be available for pre-order for $100 from April 12, with a two-year Sprint service contract and $50 mail-in rebate - not including taxes and surcharges - by the way of a reward card.
The users of the 5-ounce LG Viper handset can subscribe to the $80 a month `Everything Data' smartphone plan from Sprint, to avail the benefits of unlimited Web, calling as well as texting to other Sprint users.
To be the first LG handset for Sprint's 4G network, the Viper boasts a 4-inch WVGA NOVA touchscreen display; 1.2GHz dual core processor; 1 GB of RAM; a 5-megapixel rear camera; and a VGS front camera. Running on the Android 2.3 `Gingerbread' version, the Viper will also support Google Wallet, NFC, apps, high-definition gaming, and video chats.
In addition, over and above a 4 GB card included in a microSD card slot and up to 32 GB support, the LG Viper will also boast 50 GB of free cloud storage, along with sharing from the Box app.
Finally, Sprint customers will also be able to download Sprint ID packs which deliver "a predefined experience" which comprises the simultaneous advantage of apps, ringtones, wallpapers, and widgets.
