OPhone: Lenovo’s Android Phone was prepared
December 14th, 2008 803 viewsLenovo is known for its laptops and desktop PCs. However, Lenovo also makes mobile phones (take P960, for example), and right now it’s working on an Android one called Ophone. We’ve heard about it before, when reports about a collaboration between Lenovo and China Mobile appeared, but there were no details on the handset’s design.

This seems like a very promising phone, combining the functionality of the open source Android platform as well as the stylish looks. OPhone Photo shows that mobile phone is very interesting, supported with touch screen features. It is estimated that can take the opportunity in the country that not be penetrated by Apple.
What’s interesting is that a British company called O’WONDER says it owns the OPHONE trademark. Even more, the trademark seems to be for a handset that will be based on Android too.
There are no details about the handset’s features, save for the fact that its Android OS is somehow modified to work with China Mobile’s TD-SCDMA technology. This being said, it’s most likely that the Ophone will only be commercialized across China, unless a GSM or a regular CDMA version of it is also build.
