Watch this: The Kyocera Rise is an Android 4.0, QWERTY phone
Initially launched on Sprint, the Kyocera Rise is now available on prepaid network Virgin Mobile starting today.
The Rise is an entry-level keyboard handset running on Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich.
It's equipped with a 3.5-inch HVGA touch screen, a 3.2-megapixel rear-facing camera, and a 1GHz Qualcomm processor.
When I reviewed the handset, I was impressed with its attractively designed keyboard, call quality, and updated Android OS. However, a slow processor and hefty design hold it back from really shining.
The Rise is going for $99.99 online and will be offered in retail stores beginning in September.
