I’m not certain why Dell is planning to release its first smartphone, the Mini3, to only Cina Mobile and Brazil’s Claro, but the Chinese version will use OPhone, China Mobile’s version of Google Android. It won’t have Wi-Fi in China, just like the iPhone, but it is planned to have it “soon”. I’m …

Motorola has a hot phone for Chinese customers too. The MT710 is a handset meant to deal with China Mobile’s Android-based Open Mobile Systen. This OPhone will offer a 3.7-inch 854 x 480 touchscreen display and TD-SDCDMA support and that’s about all we know about this Motorola OPhone. It looks like the MT710 is the [...]

After we’ve seen the Dell Mini 3i which is a handset made for the Chinese market, now we have another leaked handset, the LG GW880 which is also headed to China via China Mobile. The LG GW 880 is an Android phone which basically means that LG has just created its first Android device. The [...]

Despite us clearly seeing the phone in the flesh (and assuming it was made official) Dell represenatives have stepped forward to say that the phone you saw, wasn’t actually a real phone. In fact, they are saying the Dell Mini 3i we saw was nothing more than a “proof of concept” to let everyone know [...]

This will come as great [...]

Early 2009 didn’t work for the Ophone release and seems like May 17th didn’t cut it either.  The news now points to a release next month, which we will settle on for now until they decide on an another day or just launch it already.  What’s more, HTC has now combined forces with Lenovo to [...]

Remember the Lenovo Ophone that was supposed to land in China last quarter and didn’t?  Looks it wasn’t really buried deep and the Android-powered smartphone is getting ready for a release on the 17th of this month, a good day to do it since it is the World Communications Day.  Seen as a direct competitor [...]

Lenovo’s OPhone should be a pretty interesting device to play with. The most interesting thing about it should be that Android OS it will carry. One more important thing is the smartphone will arrive this quarter in China and China Mobile is going to launch it. But what about the rest of the world? Current [...]

The first generation iPhone and the iPhone 3G might have some serious competition coming from Lenovo’s OPhone. The OPhone seems to be quite similar to the iPhone and people say it has more features than Apple’s beauty. The OPhone measures 115.84 x 61.57 x 12.03mm which is a whole millimeter longer in all directions. It [...]
