Unfamiliar with the new “Phablet” from Samsung? It has a 5.5 inch screen, a stylus with so many functions I can't discuss them all here, a 1.6 ghz quad, yes quad core processor, and 2 whole gigabytes of ram. All of this raw mobile computational power goes to good use, so you can watch a movie while using another app, such as email, or a word processing app.To top this all off, the phone ships with Android 4.1 Jellybean.

So, how much can you expect to pay for this iPhone/iPad Mini killer? If you sign up for a 2 year contract with Sprint, you get a hassle free $350 discount off the MSRP, which leaves you at $299.99. T-Mobile offers the device with only a $280 discount, $50 of which is a mail in rebate. Their final price is $369.99. Also keep in mind that if you intend to use this device heavily, T-Mobile's “Unlimited” data plans will throttle your speed after a certain amount of usage. Sprint doesn't do this, however.
