We were first to report about the T700 with this post when we only knew it by Remi, which is its codename. Later on the same phone was leaked in a massive photo series over at SE4M forums, and just recently again by us compared to the T610.

T700 is going to be announced tomorrow morning, and to be quite honest, there's not that much to say about it. It's basically a generic W890, which means they've put it in another suit and removed the Walkman player. All other features are the same - 3.2 megapixel fixed focus camera, 2-inch display, HSDPA network support, very thin body and light weight. The phone itself is also made of premium materials, and it looks just as stylish as the W890.

It will be launched within two months, so expect it to be out in early Q4. Its price will end up at about 270 Euro or about £200 SIM-free and without contract. It is going to be available in three colours - we've seen one of them. Another one is very similar to a special T610 colour variant, and the third one is all silver.

Unfortunately we cannot post any pictures of it yet, so you'll have to wait about nine hours...

In case you're wondering... The T700 is the only phone to be announced tomorrow. Not the G705, it seems it was leaked too early. The next announcement is planned to be in September.

£200 SIM-free?
That makes it cheaper than the W890, doesn't it?

About the same price IMO.
Actually seeing as the W890i is now only £130 on Vodafone the chances are that this will be more expensive than it when it first comes out

You mean the 890, not the 980 I presume.

It's only £130 on Vodafone? PAYG?
That's not a bad price.


edit: he he, I see you fixed it smile.gif

I'm guessing that's all branded up to hell though, the W890?

Well most likely yeah, but the prices will start to drop from other networks to battle the price probably.

Best viewed with on a Linux PC, where you will be able to see naked pics of Kim Kardashian in my sig in the area below. If you're using Internet Explorer and/or Windoze, you will just see a blank area. Get yourself a decent browser and OS to enjoy the sights.
If you're wondering who that lovely lady is in my avatar, you'll be pleased to discover that it is NOT me. It is, in fact, her. Besides, I'm a male.

It's the new T610 because it resembles the T610 but is an A2-based handset with up-to-date features.

Do, or do not. There is no try.
