Sprint announced today that the Samsung Epic 4G, the carrier's second 4G smartphone, will be available beginning Tuesday, August 31 for $249.99 when you sign a new two-year service agreement.
That price factors in a $100 mail-in rebate.
The Samsung Epic 4G will be Sprint's offering from Samsung's Galaxy S series of Android phones, two of which already are available: the Samsung Vibrant from T-Mobile and the Samsung Captivate from AT&T.

Verizon Wireless plans to offer the Samsung Fascinate, but has yet to announce pricing or a launch date.
Like its Galaxy S siblings, the Epic 4G features a 4-inch Super AMOLED touch-screen and a powerful 1-GHz processor for speedy performance.

But the Epic 4G boasts two features missing from the other Galaxy S phones: one is a slide-out QWERTY keyboard for easier typing, and the other is support for high-speed 4G networks. The Epic 4G will be Sprint's second 4G phone, after the HTC EVO 4G, which was launched earlier this summer.
Sprint will allow customers to reserve an Epic 4G handset ahead of the official launch; beginning August 13, the carrier will be accepting reservations at Sprint.com/Epic4G.
