14 DAY TRIAL // The first mobile phone launched on the market with WiMAX connectivity options and with Google's Android 2.1 operating system on board, the HTC EVO 4G, won't arrive alone at Sprint, it seems. The handset is expected to be accompanied by a great deal of accessories, some of which already made an appearance into the wild.
The high-end device comes with a large touchscreen display, with that Android 2.1 OS integrated with Sense, and with 4G hotspot capabilities, but it seems that users will receive even more from it, and the recently spotted accessories are here to prove that. Another interesting tidbit brought to light is that the phone's price should see a cut in the not too distant future, most probably during the holiday season, as Engadget notes.
The list of accessories that HTC EVO 4G will enjoy includes a dock with HDMI out, which is expected to become available after the handset's launch on shelves, a car mount, screen protectors, a series of cases, and various kinds of replacement shells. Additionally, the list includes a battery charging holster, which is set to become available after the original launch, it seems.
Unfortunately, no info on the price tags or release dates for these products emerged, though these details are highly likely to become available as soon as the phone hits the shelves. As for when this might happen, some of the latest rumors suggest that first half of June might be the lucky time frame. The HTC EVO 4G might become available for purchase on Sprint's airwaves either on June 6th or on June 13th, yet neither of these dates has been confirmed until now.
There are roughly two months left until the first Android-based WiMAX phone arrives on the market, and it still remains to be seen what price tag the device will sport. Until that happens, we should mention that the 4G hotspot access is rumored to cost users an additional $10-20.Those who would like to learn more on the accessories for EVO 4G should head to Engadget here.
