My name is BJ DeHut and I am a representative for Sprint and I just want to give special thanks to the NDK Team for publishing this article. The Renegade V950 is as powerful as it is tough, but despite all the effort that went into the phone’s exterior strength, we didn’t skip out on the features, because there are a ton of them. If you are interested in owning this phone, stop by a Sprint store and take advantage of our Ready Now program, where a Sprint representative will show you how to fully utilize all the cool features on this phone!
