The Samsung SPH-M910 (marketed as the Samsung Intercept) is a discontinued Android smartphone manufactured by Samsung. [5] It was released on July 11, 2010, for Sprint in the United States, and was also released on Sprint Nextel-owned prepaid cell phone company Virgin Mobile on October 4, 2010. [6]

It was marketed as an updated version of the very similar Samsung Moment, though in several respects its features are inferior: its screen resolution of 240×400 is less than the 320×480 resolution of the Moment, it does not have a camera flash, and the Sprint version (but not the Virgin Mobile version) of the Intercept supports only EVDO Rev. 0 [7] rather than the faster Rev. A standard supported by the Moment. Unlike the Moment, its touch screen does support multi-touch. [7] [8] [9]
