Huawei’s made a good impression on the tablet market with the S7. What appeared to be lacklustre on paper turned out to be worth much more than the sum of it’s parts in reality. At the time it was mentioned that a capacitive version was on the drawing board and on Twitter today the unveiled, the Huawei Ideos S7 Slim.
Rest assure, if this is at Mobile World Congress, I’ll fine it and provide more info on it.
Those nice people at RIM are giving away a BlackBerry Torch to one lucky winner via a Facebook competition. The idea is to find the biggest BlackBerry fan here in the UK and the way you can enter is to visit the Facebook page, upload a photo of you and your BlackBerry and say why you think you are the biggest fan.
Now although I think I am possibly the biggest BlackBerry fan I am not allowed to enter. RIM have kindly asked me to be one of the judges!
The competition is open now and all entrees must be in by at 23:59 GMT on Sunday 6 March 2011.
So be creative, be original and most of all be lucky. Oh, and keep it clean!
If you don’t already follow BlackBerry UK on Facebook click here, like them and get your entry in.

Vodafone will be the first UK operator to sell the Nexus S, the first Smartphone to be powered by Gingerbread the latest version of the Google’s Android operating system.
The device has not yet appeared on the Vodafone ‘coming soon’ page but should be soon. Watch this space.

Nokia’s E7 has appeared on the Vodafone ‘coming soon’ page. The device was announced back in September but has been delayed due to various reasons. I first got hands on with the E7 last year and although Symbian may not be my OS of choice the device seemed very sturdy and a bit of a power horse with its slide out full QWERTY keyboard. You can see the video here.
We will of course let you know when the handset becomes available via Vodafone.

Only a few days back, we caught wind of a render and a couple of blurry in-the-wild shots of the next Android flagship phone from HTC. The Desire 2, as it’s been called is running on Android 2.2.1 with HTC Sense and a mobile01 user has submitted clear pictures of both the front and back. There’s not much other information that you can’t see from the pictures. It’s evidently got a camera flash and a small hole which looks like it could be a second mic. The unibody design is typical HTC, very Nexus One like. If this doesn’t get announced at MWC this February, I’ll eat my hat.
See the back of the phone after the break.
Sony Ericsson have posted the full length TV advert for the Xperia Play on their YouTube channel. As you will see the advert is rather odd, although kind of clever.
In addition, via Facebook, Sony Ericsson have also conformed that the official announcement will be at Mobile World Congress on February 13th. We will be there so be sure to check the site for some up to date info.
Check out the advert after the break:
