The Orange San Francisco: £99 for a lot of smartphone

The San Francisco has been launched by Orange UK and is retailing for £99 + £10 top-up. I can’t think of another Android powered phones that packs in a 480 x 800 pixel 3.5″ touch screen, Wi-Fi, GPS, Android v2.1, 3 Megapixel camera, 4 hours of talk time, FM radio, 11.8mm depth and more for such a price. It also looks a bit like the HTC Desire.

Expect a review soon- it will either be well under priced or built so badly that it justifies such a small amount of money. The video below gives you a hint of what it is like. Thanks to Austin.

    Interesting. I’m looking for a new touchscreen phone for my daughter.
    This looks like a deal.

    Are there any other reasonably priced Abdroid phones out there?
