The Windows 6 running smartphone features quad-band capabilities that allow the Samsung ACE to operate globally on CDMA and GSM/GPRS networks where Sprint has international roaming agreements.
With the Samsung ACE Sprint customers can make or receive calls in approximately 180 countries and access professional and personal email, view documents and files, surf the web, and sync their Outlook calendar in nearly 100 countries.
Features of the Samsung ACE include 2.3 inch screen, side-click wheel, Stereo Bluetooth, 1.3MP camera, microSD card, and full QWERTY keyboard.
Measurements of the Samsung ACE are 4.65" x 2.32" x 0.46" and the weight is 4 ounces.

The Samsung ACE looks pretty similar to the very successful Samsung BlackJack.

Sprint has the following offers for the Samsung ACE:

    -- Canada Voice Pricing - All Sprint wireless calls placed within
        Canada are $.59 per minute regardless of the call destination.
        For $2.99 per month customers may subscribe to a special
        Canada calling plan and reduce their per-minute rate for these
        calls to $.20 per minute.

    --  Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam - Voice calls placed
        within any of these three countries where Sprint has coverage
        are billed the same as minutes used within the continental U.S
        for customers with roaming included in their service plan.
        Data roaming, available in Puerto Rico and Guam, is also
        billed the same way, allowing customers to use available
        services in these territories the same way they do in the
        continental U.S. based upon their individual data service
        plan.

    --  Special Business Pricing - Sprint offers a variety of special
        international pricing offers to enterprise and government
        customers under contract.

    --  Unlocked SIM Capabilities - In addition to taking advantage of
        any Sprint International Roaming services, Sprint customers
        can also use a third-party SIM for international voice and
        data services, giving them greater flexibility for their
        global communications needs.

    --  International Mobile Broadband Access for Laptop Users- Sprint
        is the only U.S. carrier to offer EV-DO data roaming in Canada
        and Mexico meaning a customer can use their Sprint Mobile
        Broadband cards in these North American countries for an
        affordable rate of $0.0002/kb, approximately $2 per Mb. Sprint
        also offers this same value for 1XRTT data roaming services in
        Israel and China

    --  North American Connection Card Plus Plan - For customers that
        travel to Canada and Mexico frequently they can take advantage
        of Sprint's North America Connection Card Plus Plan which
        allows Sprint Mobile Broadband customers unlimited data usage
        with a laptop everywhere in the US, Canada, and Mexico for
        $109 monthly charge and a 1 year contract*.
