Filed in: OrangeZTE

With a large partner like Orange, ZTE may actually be able to hit its targets and sell over 80 million phones by the end of this year. The France Telecom’s British subsidiary now lists the ZTE-made Orange Monte Carlo in its “Coming Soon” section. The device in question is actually the ZTE Skate, which we know as a cheap, yet decent Android smartphone. If you remember, we’re talking about a phone that comes with a large 4.3-inch WVGA capacitive touchscreen, 5-megapixel camera, HSPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, while Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread is running the show. In addition, the Monte Carlo will support HD Voice on Orange network.

Orange UK's HTC Desire HD getting Android 2.3 update as we speak

Orange UK's HTC Desire HD getting Android 2.3 update as we speak

Posted on Jun 29, 2011 by MG1

Orange UK and HTC have started rolling out Android 2.3 Gingerbread updates for the Desire HD. If you’re in the “affected” group you can already check to see whether a new update is available. If it isn’t – don’t worry. I’m sure HTC’s servers are dying at the moment as the company tries to push the software to all users.
You probably know what Gingerbread brings, so I won’t repeat it here. Still I’ll mention the improved Copy/Paste which actually makes the functionality usable.
As usual, we remind you it’s good practice to backup all of your PIM data (contacts and calendars) before updating. Your stuff may be in the cloud, but having a local copy is always a plus. When you’re done with that —...

Orange UK's Coming Soon page now lists HTC Sensation, Samsung Galaxy Mini

Posted on Jun 27, 2011 by MG1

Orange UK will soon start selling two Android smartphones. The first of the two is the HTC Sensation, which we know as the monster phone thanks to its specs that include a dual-core processor, 4.3-inch qHD capacitive touchscreen, 8-megapixel camera, HSPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, an array of sensors and so on. You name it, this baby has it. It’s one of the best smartphones announced to date, if not the best. We’ve no doubts Orange will offer the Sensation for free to anyone willing to commit on a plan starting at 30 or 35 GBP a month.
Then there’s the Samsung Galaxy Mini, which for many will be the first smartphone they ever bought. It should cost next to nothing, even free with some not-that-...

Orange UK shows t-shirt that powers phones with sound waves

Orange UK shows t-shirt that powers phones with sound waves

Posted on Jun 21, 2011 by MG1

Filed in: Orange

Orange has devised a new product for charging a mobile phone by harnessing the sound waves and vibrations produced around you. Called Sound Charge, the technology is built into a t-shirt that will be available to concertgoers at the Glastonbury Festival this summer, where there will be plenty of sound waves to test the technology out with.
The Sound Charge t-shirt has a Piezoelectric film embedded in the front of it that can absorb sound waves. The absorbed sound waves are then turned into an electrical current that is stored in batteries woven into the shirt. A user can plug their mobile phone into the shirt to charge a phone's battery using the energy stored in the shirt's batteries.
