Lenovo is a laptop manufacturer which has created its own Android OS based phone. The only sad fact of this beautiful start is that it is only coming to China.
The OPhone which is already being compared to the iPhone and Blackberry in its features is going to remain secluded and confined to the Chinese. The chances of it coming to the US markets seem to be very bleak.
The operating system of the OPhone is based on China Mobile’s Open Mobile System, a Android and TD SCDMA which is China’s indigenous 3G standards. The Android Smartphone with its large touchscreen will offer integrated support and applications for China’s 3G network. Not much is talked about its various specifications. The release of this phone is expected sometime during February-March 2009.

For a quick review of the other Ice cream and winter inspired models from LG.
There was a LH5000 ( ice cream inspired) announced in March which came up right after the Chocolate range. This was a 13.6mm thin clamshell with LED lighting. The 3G connectivity, email support, e-dictionary, 2mp camera and a 2.2″ color QVGA display was everything it had and was priced between $404 and $505(calculate today’s rate accordingly).
The other one announced a month earlier from today was named LG-SH460 ( winter snow inspiration) which had 2 displays and is available in colors black or white. Mobile banking, roaming features and Bluetooth 2.0, USB 1.1, 2mp camera, e dictionary, a 800mAh battery offering 140mins talk time and 160 hours of standby time was what the SH460 offered for a cost similar to LU1600 – a 400,000 won.
