Introducing... the Asus Galaxy7

[Guest Alex (nedge2k)]

...or the O2 XDA Zest as it may shortly be known by ;)

What we have here is Asus' answer to the barrage of WM iPhone killers coming our way. Specs? Well, details are a little thin on the ground (and I'm working on getting some firm answers!) but according to pda.pl, they should be as follows:

• GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850/900/1800/1900)
• WCDMA/HSDPA/HSUPA (900/1900/2100)
• 3.5" WVGA 800X480 / 65K Color TFT Screen
• WM 6.1 Professional
• 5MP camera with auto focus
• Bluetooth 2.0, 802.11b/g Wifi, USB 2.0
• aGPS
• 4GB flash Memory
• MicroSD slot
• Tracking ball
• Accelerometer
• Dimensions: 115×59x13.8mm
  

Pretty much your standard "next-gen" device fare right? Well, er, yeah, pretty much! :( Nice to have a choice though :wacko:

If the Omnia doesn't get it's software stabilized by the time this is released..

And this is rock stable.. then it's time to change phone again!

[Guest Michael Pang]

Hope it do have the same memory as HTC Pro - 288MB and with FM Radio.

[Guest NuShrike]

Would be nice to have something that doesn't use the Qualcomm cpu to avoid the typical lagginess.

FM Radio?? Nah, bring on a DAB radio, I don't know why more phone don't include this. I've a lobster, and the dab radio works fantastically, compaired to my Diamond FM radio that struggles to find a station!

That aside, this things looks sweet! Looking forward to more choice when my contract ends in 6 months! its all good ;)
