Sprint’s wireless network is used by prepaid carriers like Sprint Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile, but now the company is preparing to enter the prepaid arena on its own, according to company documents leaked to Android Police.
The service, slated for launch on January 25, will cost $70 a month for unlimited voice, text and Web, and includes two smartphone models that will be offered at unsubsidized prices, according to the leaked documents.
Smartphones in the plan will be the LG Optimus Elite ($150) and Samsung Victory ($250). Other Sprint smartphones, like the Galaxy S III and Evo 4G LTE, aren’t eligible for the plan.
EVDO roaming is not included in the plan and Android Police noted that the leaked materials suggest that using data on a non-EVDO network may be charged against a subscriber’s monthly credit.
