16 Sep 11 Virgin Mobile Announced JukeB Smartphone with Android OS
As one of the world’s most recognized and respected brands, Virgin Mobile is used by many mobile phone service providers across the globe. The company is growing more and more successful, apart from its headquarters in the UK, Virgin Mobile has local operations in Australia, Canada, France, India, South Africa, Greece, and the US.
Earlier this year, we mentioned that Virgin Mobile announced the LG Optimus V in their catalog. And this time we have the news that Virgin Mobile is going to present a new smart phone made by TCT Mobile from China. The smart phone comes with its code name of JukeB. Let’s have a look at its details.
First of all, the upcoming Virgin Mobile JukeB is equipped with an operative system of Android Gingerbread 2.3.4. What is more, the smart phone bears a full QWERTY keyboard. To add more specifications, it sports a QVGA display screen. Though there is no exact information about the size of the screen, we are sure it won’t let you down. Besides all these, it has a Bluetooth as well as a camera on the rear. The 1’300mAh battery is pretty enough for daily use. You may wonder if this phone weighs too much. Well, we have the information about its dimensions and weight, the JukeB measures 119 x 58 x 12.43 mm and weighs only 122 grams, which can be considered pretty light-weight.
At the moment, there are no more details about the device. The price tag or release date is still kept as a secret. But with so many excellent features, there is no doubt that the Virgin Mobile JukeB will be pretty popular. If you are interested in this device, please pay attention to our website.
19 Aug 10 Alcatel VM202 Phone for Virgin Media in UK
Good news for side slide-out cell phones, Virgin Media recently released a new exclusive color cell phone called Alcatel VM202 in the UK. As you can see from the pictures, it’s Dazzle Pink, measures 109mm by 51mm by16.5mm.
About the configurations, Alcatel VM202 features a 2.2 inch display screen with a QVGA resolution of 320×240 pixels. I have to claim that its appearance is a bit similar to MOTO’s slide-out cell phones. But its pre-install camera is only 0.3 million pixel, which I think is not so good for photo and video. If you want to use your cell phone to take photos, I don’t suggest you buy this device. With its 3.5mm Headphone jack, you can also use it to listen to radio or music. Its QWERTY keyboard mixed purple and black, looks pretty cool. One of the good details is that it has pre-loaded the Opera Mini browser that gives you a faster, better web browser experience on your mobile phone. Its battery life is also good that is able to last up to 7 hrs talk time and 450 hrs standby time, which is even superior to most cell phones. It has a 2 GB of internal memory, with a slot for a 8GB of MicroSD card.
According to Virgin, Alcatel VM202 will cost you 45 dollars with 300 free text messages. If you are seeking for a fashion and pretty cell phone, it is worth of your consideration.
