We have already seen the first video, where Sprint shows us a little competition between the GPS functionality of the Instinct as compared to the iPhone and with little surprise the Instinct came out victorious. Well in a continuance, Sprint has released an additional four videos showing off just how feature packed the Instinct is.

Up this time they take on “Fast Internet,” “Live TV,” “Shoot video” and “Music Download.” Also as you would expect the Instinct continues to come out on top. While the videos seem obvious, especially to most of us who have the specs memorized in our heads, it also does not seem to be cutting an edge in the competition. It was previously uncovered that Sprint dropped $100 million on this campaign and personally I would be not any more willing to grab an Instinct for myself after seeing these features shown off, not really sure that means money well spent.

At the risk of sounding a little like an Apple fanboy, I will continue to use and enjoy my current iPhone with the hopes that some of these features, such as true GPS, video capture and faster Internet (3G) will come in a new version of the iPhone. We have to remember that the current iPhone, and the focus of their competition is a phone that is now almost a year old, which in gadget and technology life is getting old. Continue reading to check out the videos yourself, if nothing else they are quite enjoyable to watch.

  1. It's not just the hardware, I took 18 numbers with me when we left Sprint and we'll never go back. That said, ATT is the reason I haven't gotten an iPhone…
