According to PhoneNews, Sprint is internally testing the HTC Hero, which got announced yesterday. Fans of the operating system will be nicely surprised if Sprint is to carry the Hero, having in mind it is not just an Android phone, but the first one to feature the new personalized interface Sense. The Hero itself is slated for a U.S. launch later in the year, but there are no details about the carrier availability.

That’s not all! An Android-powered device by Samsung is also being tested, the source informs. It would be WiMax-capable, which entirely corresponds to the info provided by a previous rumor we have heard. It should be released in the end of this year or in the beginning of the next one. If this is all true, Sprint subscribers will surely be pleased, as they will get not one, but two Android devices. So far, that’s been a privilege of T-Mobile users only.
