The black one is really looking nice. Looks really like a next-gen Pulse :P awesome!

Huawei is announcing it next week, but hopefully we'll have info before that.

But we can always guess:

  • 768MHz Qualcomm (Overclock-able to 1.2 :D)
  • Multitouch 3.2"-3.5" screen
  • VGA Front facing camera, 3.2MP back
  • 3.5mm headphone jack.
  • Micro-USB at the bottom.
  • MicroSD slot inside (no crappy plastic covers on the side and top like the pulse, makes it feel really cheap)
  • [From ANDROIDOS.in] "Ideos X3 looks like an entry-level Android smartphone, and we expect it to be launched with Android 2.3."

Well, that's what i got.

According to the X5 specs it has a 480x800 screen resolution and the U8800 has HSDPA 7.2Mbps whilst the U8800H has HSPA+ 14Mbps.

U8800 V100R001C00B133SP15 (Finland Elisa)

U8800 V100R001C00B133SP16CUSTC225D001 (Norway retail)

U8800 V100R001C00B133SP16CUSTC244D001 (Sweden Expert)

U8800H V100R001AREC00B133SP16CUSTC250D00

U8800H V100R001C00B133SP15 ( Oman OMANTEL)

Does anybody happen to know how to get your hand on a Ideos X5 in Europe (The Netherlands to be precise)?

All I can find are some shops in Australia and/or New Zealand...

Just curious if anyone knows any more about this or is it just to early for Europe?

Thanks...

Thanks guys,

Huawei also responded confirming its not available in The Netherlands yet.

I guess I'll just have to be patient a little longer.
