Google Android phone in the UK later this year

According to recent speculation and comments from mobile manufacturer HTC they are on target to release a Google Android phone in the UK later this year.Hui-ming Cheng commented that HTC is still on target to release a phone, thought to be the HTC Dream, running the new Android UI from Google towards the end of 2008.

Networks in the UK are understood to be interested in carrying the device but none have officially stated their intentions, presumably keen to wait until the phone has been developed.
Qualcomm are also building an Android based device and believe it can rival the iPhone - CEO Sanjay Jha said recently that the iPhone was not a perfect device and that “there are opportunities to do some things better”.

During a discussion Qualcomm also stated that their new chips were significantly more powerful than those in the iPhone. The Snapdragon line of voice and data chips feature a giant 1-gigahertz processor and the ability to run an 8 megapixel camera and HD video camera.

Let's see what Nokia 6555 says!

Nokia 6555 has a standard clam shell construction with one cool little detail, it has an analog timepiece on the cover, Photos and info inside.

Nokia 6555 features a smooth-back fold design and original analog timepiece, It’s a 3G cellphone that pairs original design and quality workmanship with outstanding features. The Nokia 6555 meets the desire for aesthetic appeal with an external analog clock echoing the timeless elegance of high-end luxury.

It’s the first WCDMA phone with a smooth-back fold design with recessed hinge creating a seamless line when open. Its gentle curve ensures a smooth and ergonomic user experience. This cellphone is an accessible option for discerning consumers.

Adding to its attraction, Nokia 6555 features a QVGA 16 million color internal display, twice as many colors as the human eye can see, for a brilliant, crisp resolution on a large 240×320 screen, making it perfect for viewing photos and videos.

The camera featuring a 6x zoom gives even greater versatility and full screen portrait viewfinder so you can be sure you get the right picture every time. The self-portrait function on the camera and video sharing ability ensures that special moments are easily shared with family and friends.

Nokia 6555 is a sophisticated accessory delivering the outstanding features that we expect from Nokia, from the thin, narrow form factor with smooth lines to the 30MB user memory (with capacity for microSD expandable memory) and Bluetooth wireless connectivity, the Nokia 6555 sets the standard in its class.

This Beautiful cellphone is especially for woman I think, the buttons are quite large and very easy to type. The buttons are nice and clicky too and you don’t have to push them too hard. It feels just right.

The cellphone is not too thick at all. Yes it’s not the same thinness as something like the RAZR but I don’t think that was what Nokia was aiming for with this cellphone.

It’s not weighted too well, the balance is only slightly biased towards the base and because of the angle the phone folds out to, so you can’t rest the phone on its base while it’s open without it acting almost like a see-saw.

It doesn’t have a button to open, flipping it open by sliding a finger between the folds and rising it up works very well, very much like a flip phone should do. Closing it is also easy and if it slams shut you don’t feel like you’re doing damage to the phone.
