Sprint Launches the Kyocera Echo - Nation's 1st Dual-Touchscreen Smartphone

Kyocera Echo, the nation’s first dual-touchscreen smartphone, launched today in all Sprint retail channels, including the Web and Telesales (1-800-Sprint1). Sprint and Kyocera Communications Inc. announced today’s launch of the innovative Android device, available for $199.99 (excluding taxes) with a new two-year service agreement or eligible upgrade.*

Featuring two high-resolution 3.5-inch WVGA touchscreen displays connected by a durable, patent-pending Super Copper Alloy “pivot hinge,” Kyocera Echo allows users to use both displays independently, side-by-side or combined to form a tablet-like experience with 800 x 960 pixels in a 4.7-inch (diagonal) display. The device also folds up easily into a pocket-friendly single-screen configuration.
