T-Mobile today announced a new addition to its no contract lineup, the ZTE-made Concord. The Concord features a 3.5-inch 320x480 display on its face as well as a 2-megapixel camera around back, and it's powered by an 832MHz processor. Other specs include 512MB RAM/ROM, microSD slot, 1,500mAh battery and Android 2.3 Gingerbread. As far as launch and pricing goes, the Concord is currently available from Walmart for $99.98, and it'll also be hitting Target on August 26 for $99.99.
The Concord looks to be a fairly basic Android smartphone, but with a retail price of $99.99, it could be worth a look for anyone in the market for a contract-free handset that'll be easy on the wallet. T-Mobile's full announcement of the Concord is available below.
