Haier, one of China’s largest electronic products manufacturers, has announced its intention to launch an Android smartphone later this year. Headquartered in Qingdao, Haier is mainly famous for domestic appliances (freezers, washing machines etc), and its cell phones are sold almost exclusively in China. However, the Android-powered Haier H7 seems to be headed for Europe. According to CNET, the smartphone should reach France sometime in September.
It’s said that the price of H7 will be of only $150.
The low price is somewhat justified by the features Haier H7 has:
* GSM connectivity with GPRS (no 3G)
* 2.8 inch TFT display of unknown resolution
* GPS
* Wi-Fi
* Bluetooth
* FM radio
* 2MP camera
* MicroSD card support
All in all, it’s nice that we’re going to have cheap Android smartphones, even if they’re coming from companies that aren’t major players in the mobile market
