Orange Vegas now official

Yesterday I mentioned that I’d had a tip off about Orange’s new Vegas touchscreen handset and this morning we have the official announcement.

Orange today launched the ‘Vegas’, the smallest, lightest and cheapest touch screen mobile available in the UK. Priced at just £48.50 for pay as you go customers, the stylish Vegas handset is available in black and exclusive to Orange in pink.

Featuring a simple one-touch interface designed exclusively for Orange, the handset allows customers to quickly get to grips with its many features. The Vegas combines a lightweight and elegant style with a 1.3 megapixel camera – so users never have to miss out on the action and can share their photo and video experiences with friends within minutes. It also offers MP3 and media player capability as well as a built-in FM radio for keen music fans.

The handset’s large 2.4 inch high quality touch screen means it’s easy to navigate to your favourite social networking sites to stay in touch with friends. And when you top-up by £10 on Orange pay as you go Dolphin, you get 300 free texts, £10 credit to spend however you want plus free access to Bebo, Facebook and MySpace. Pay as you go Dolphin is the best value package on the market for those who want to access social networks on their mobile and Vegas is the perfect phone – great value with all the functionality and style that you’d expect at a higher price.

Speaking on the announcement, Francois Mahieu, Director of Devices, Orange UK said “The Vegas is the perfect handset for customers who wish to have the touch screen experience without breaking the bank. It provides a good functionality with a touch screen at a cheap and affordable price. Combined with our pay as you go Dolphin package which offers free access to Bebo, Facebook and MySpace – it really does offer consumers tremendous value.”

The Vegas comes with an in-built memory of 128MB and a microSD card slot that supports a data capacity of up to 4GB. Available immediately for only £48.50 the Vegas is also on offer to pay monthly customers. For more details visit Orange shops or www.orange.co.uk
