I read the specs of the Huawei IDEOS X5, it is indeed an excellent bargain! According to some user comments in another forum even its camera shoots good photos, and the overall size of the phone is nice and small enough for an average pocket, unlike that Skate here.

I don't know if the specs are correct, but looks at what is available today, this will be obsolete when it is released...
Huawei IDEOS X5, in my opinion, is the best bang for the buck at the moment.
Motorola Defy is also a good proposition for something more tough than the average phone.

AnonD-12194, 28 Jun 2011I've used the phone at the MWC2011 in barcelona, it was fast and well build. Yeah right, it is so fast and well built that they still could not release it until now. Anyway, did not bother waiting any longer and bought the Samsung Galaxy S instead, especially since the price dropped so much since the new S2 came out.

To Anonymous did you have this device in your hand , you couldn't have this device in your hand and say it is all plastic because in videos is pre-reales unit which are basicly prototype of device which is going to be soled on the market. CPU is 800 Mhz now we don't know is it going to be arm 11 or arm a8 because pre-realesed unit and unit that will be soled on market is huge difference.

800MHZ Procceser is far to slow its hardley an improvement over the zte blade/sanfrancisco.It also doesnt support flash ether the big screen maybe a bonus but ive heard the software is laggy.It cannot handle android 2.3 and it looks plastic the buttons at the bottom are lose i doubt it will out sell the blade/sanfrancisco such a good android for 100pounds.I dont know why zte didnt improve on the blade with a blade/sanfrancisco 2 they could of updated the software and put a faster processer inside the skate is just a waste of time

The price may be between EUR 200 and 300 EUR.
Reference: http://www.androidpit.de/de/android/blog/395229/ZTE-Skate-4-3-Android-2-3-Smartphone-fuer-250
In my opinion even a price of just EUR 200 would not be very competitive anymore.
There are a lot of other "mayor brand" android smart phones for less than EUR 200 by now.
Also: I would not buy the ZTE Skate when it is newly released. Not anymore. All that delay must have a reason. I would wait until I can read a fair amount of user reviews.

This is going to have to be very cheap (below 130 British pounds) as it it possible to get a HTC Wildfire for £130 brand new and although the proccessor is only 600MHz (in the HTC) it is a very reliable brand an a good fashion statment. Just like the Skate it also has a 5MP camera with flash and auto-focus. The only question i have is will the battery in the ZTE Skate hack such a big screen?!?!?
