The Kyocera Brio has good call quality, access to Web-based e-mail, room for a 32GB expansion card, and it's free with a new two-year contract. The Kyocera Brio is worth the price you pay for it, but unless you're in the market for a free feature phone with a small screen, QWERTY keyboard, and good call quality, keep on moving.
Amid all the high-end, superpremium devices, it's nice to see carriers like Sprint also offering free, basic phones for renewing customers and luring new recruits. While the Brio certainly isn't anything worth paying much money for, it's not a terrible free phone, either. Despite being incredibly basic, it does come with a QWERTY keyboard and supports e-mail services, Bluetooth 2.0, and a Web browser. However, it also only channels 2.5G data speeds (that's right, there's no 3G), and doesn't support native mapping, hot spots, or GPS.
The Brio features a 2.2-inch QVGA (240 x 320 pixel) display above a portrait-oriented QWERTY keyboard. It sports a 1.3 megapixel camera on the back, as well. The Brio features a WAP 2.0 mobile browser, and has support for Sprint's Mobile Email services. The Brio measures 113.5mm x 60.2mm x 14.5mm (4.47in x 2.37in x 0.57in), and weighs 105g (3.70oz). It is powered by an 870mAh battery.
The Kyocera Brio will be available from Sprint online and in stores tomorrow, and will cost $49.99 after rebate with a new two-year agreement.
