Cricket, wasting no time between Android announcements, unveiled its next smartphone today in the Samsung Transfix.
Running Android 2.3 Gingerbread and featuring a sliding QWERTY keyboard, the Transfix is powered by an 800MHz processor. Other notable specs include a 3.2-inch display and 3.2-megapixel camera, a microSD card slot, and the requisite connectivity package.
While the hardware may not appeal to your typical Android enthusiast, the no-contract $179.99 price point will certainly turn a few heads. The Transfix will join other Android phones on the Cricket network, including the recent ZTE Score and Huawei Ascend II.
The Samsung Transfix is available today with a suggested price of $179.99 and can be found in the carrier’s retail stores, from various dealers, and, of course, on Samsung’s Web site.
