White Epic 4G Touch Hitting Sprint on January 8th

If you’re in the market for a new smartphone and you’re thinking about heading to Sprint, it is the only major U.S. carrier that currently offers unlimited data to new customers after all, then you might want to look at the carrier’s version of the Samsung Galaxy S II aka the Epic 4G Touch. And if you’re looking at the Epic 4G Touch, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll have two color choices come January 8th.

Right now, it’s only available in black but come the 8th, Sprint will be offering up the Epic 4g Touch in white. It’s still going to cost you $199 on-contract but hey, at least it gives you options.

It will be available in all channels including Sprint’s online store, its physical retail locations as well as through telesales so you’ll have a number of ways to get your hands on one if that’s the direction you’re headed.
