Sprint Corp said it has partnered with phone manufacturer LG Electronics Inc to launch a 5G smartphone in the first half of next year, marking the first 5G device deal for the US wireless carrier.
Sprint is working to persuade antitrust regulators to approve its merger with larger rival T-Mobile US Inc in a US$26bil (RM106bil) deal, which the companies say will help them more quickly build the next-generation wireless network. That network is expected to eventually pave the way for new technologies like autonomous cars.
