Guest john.smith Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 That's a very different machine. Dual SIM (TDCDMA+WCDMA/GSM) and completely different design, and it looks like my old HTC Leo! There is a U960 available in mainland China. CPU Snapdragon S2 MSM7630 1G GPU Adreno 205 RAM 512M ROM 4G Link is here , you may need Google Translate if you cannot read Chinese. BTW Huawei Honor is awesome but only 4″ screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merimobiles are a really good site. Free shipping on all items, but you get 5% off your first shipping, so you can pick a paid for postage and the discount will cover the shipping. I did this with the tablet I ordered from then, and it came with 5 working days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest j6mm Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) There seems to be 1 GHz Skate on sale in Finland. Price 279 € Edit: Perhaps "1 GHz" is a mistake there? Edited November 16, 2011 by j6mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tilaz, I can buy a brand new HTC Desire HD around the corner for £230....and I am tempted. What is that like as an alternative? Any ideas? Or is the dual core Huwaie worth waiting for? Actually I'd feel bad and ripped off if I had to sell my Skate and stick another £100 on top to buy another ANdroid phone which does the exact same as the omc, only a little faster...

Guest KonstaT Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 There seems to be 1 GHz Skate on sale in Finland. Price 279 € Edit: Perhaps "1 GHz" is a mistake there? It's not on sale, it's still pre-order. It says that it is available 2011-11-30, so still couple of weeks to that. This 'ZTE Skate 4.3H Nordic' edition was also rumored in one finnish android blog. But that's what it is until we actually see one - just rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dadashi Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) The 1Ghz Skate was a theme a month ago and its supposed to have the same arm6 cpu as omc clocked to 1Ghz Edited November 16, 2011 by dadashi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Frankish Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 As an sgs2 user I miss the physical buttons. Why? When playing fruit ninja I accidentally swipe the back button! When I want to press a button sometimes it takes two tries. Believe it or not I miss the blades buttons! The defy had pretty decent capacitive buttons though.

Guest xiaoyaoswim Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 How much is this phone going to cost? It looks similar to a Galaxy S2 I'm not sure how much it is going to cost. It will be definitely much cheaper than a S2, and dearer than a Skate. There was a rumour that the price would be only around £200 in China, but who knows..

According to gsmarena.com http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_u8860_honor-4197.php Its not a duel core processor phone, its virtually the same as a Skate, but faster and a smaller screen and a better graphics processor, I guess the only reason I would get this phone is if I wanted to run games that can't run on the skate :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
