Virgin Mobile Intros Motorola Triumph


Virgin Mobile will introduce the Motorola Triumph in July, with Best Buy already taking pre-orders for July 19th.


The Triumph will be the most feature-rich Android to date by a no-contract carrier. With Froyo 2.2, and Flash support, the Triumph includes some impressive specs:


  • 4.1 inch touch screen (WVGA)
  • 1 GHz Snapdragon processor
  • 1400 mAh battery
  • 512 MB RAM for increased app storage
  • up to 32 GB micro SD card support
  • 2 GB micro SD card included
  • HDMI port
  • Bluetooth 2.1
  • 3.5mm headphone jack
  • Front facing camera; 5 MP auto focus rear camera with 720p HD video and LED flash
  • Stock Virgin theme; no MotoBlur; easily customizable
  • 3G (EVDO rev A) and Wi-fi
  • GPS navigation (Google Maps, etc.)
  • Hotspot capable
  • Android Market
One thing missing is a dedicated camera shutter button in horizontal mode.

Pricing will be around $299 (USD), according to Best Buy. Other retailers may offer incentives as SKUs become more available, but the price seems reasonable considering no contracts are required.
