Live images of possible Instinct Mini for Sprint surface
Well lookie here, Sprint fans — it appears as though we might have our first live glimpse of the upcoming Instinct Mini from Samsung. Originating on a Sprint forum, no details have been provided just yet as user phonetec dangles the pics in front of forum members, wondering simply, “anyone else seen this ???” The answer of course, is no. It certainly looks a bit more, err, mini than the current Instinct and the rounded edges leave no question that this is indeed a different handset. As far as we know, the Instinct Mini is still slated for release on April 19th so the timing is right for some leaked pics to begin making the rounds. We’ll keep an eye on this one and in the meantime, hit the jump for a couple more shots.
Thanks, REV!
I think it looks nice in a way, not too cluttered, but I would like to play with it to see how it really is.
I wonder how “mini” it is.
Sweet. Another failure in a more compact and easier to throw at the wall design…
I remember the quote. I phone killer….from a few magazines when the original came out. Its nice to seem some healthy invocation on Sprint’s part.
Hi Zach!!
Not bad….But wont really know how mini it is till its out and i can compare it. Otherwise it could easily pass as an Instinct 2.
The Instinct wasnt a failure by any means…it sells well and i wouldnt expect anything less for this one.
Palm Pro this month…Instinct Mini..in April…Maybe Pre for Memorial Day?? What for June & July??
Sharp looking phone
Nice new sleeker design nice
Now how about something like this running Android?
Looks sleek than original Instinct otherwise looks the same. I wonder why they came with this? I thought they were going to reduce the form factor and size a like! And, is it releasing on Apr 14th!! I doubt since it is Sprint! Did you hear about Pre?
Only reason a Sprint subscriber would want this phone is because they lived under multiple rocks and heard nothing about the Pre.
Pre needs to be released… Yesterday.

Is that because of the prices or because of coverage….because I know I’m paying less and I have better coverage where I live so….sure.
@Celz: Um, millions of subscribers jumping ship every year would call bullshit on that…
@Coin: Same response as what I told Celz. MILLIONS every year call bullshit.
In LA, I left Sprint for ATT (iPhone 3G) and coverage is wayyy better. ATT service (via Apples straightfoward subscription plans) makes dealing with ATT tolerable. Sprint f’d up billing and service TIME and TIME again…

Must suck being stuck on a sinking ship… Guess that’s what happens when a carrier treats you like shit for years then suddenly goes “Shit, people are leaving… I guess we could TRY and be nice…”
Fuck Sprint and fuck people who name call on the web. You are weak little girly men who would get their asses kicked to talking to men like that in real life.
@ Evilhomer
“Fuck Sprint and fuck people who name call on the web. You are weak little girly men”
I’m confused, please explain. In one sentence you state “fuck people who name call on the web” then follow that up in the next sentence by calling them “weak little girly men”.
I’m positive you’ll have some reason to explain why this is not hypocrisy so I’ll be eagerly awaiting.
Thanks.
its looks better than the original but what was the point if it has damn near the same functions?
looks a bit THINNER than the original…definitely sleeker….but still same crappy OS…and probably same crappy resistive touch screen
