T-Mobile has retired the Sidekick 4G smartphone, almost one year after its release.
The highly rated device, which features a full QWERTY keyboard, even won an iF Design award.
Although the device has been retired, the carrier has left the door open for future Sidekick devices: "While the T-Mobile Sidekick 4G is being retired, it doesn't mean we are discontinuing the T-Mobile Sidekick line. T-Mobile continues to update and expand its 4G product portfolio and we'll keep you posted when we have news to share on T-Mobile's latest 4G devices."
The phone is still available on T-Mobile for free with contract or overpriced at $329.99 without one.
T-Mobile's Sidekick 4G has a 3.5-inchscreen and a single-core 1GHz processor.
