Yet another O2 XDA post, this time it’s the O2 XDA Apollo that’s appeared on the FCC website.

Specification of the O2 Apollo is, as far as I can tell, pretty much the same as the Atom, with Windows Mobile 5, GSM/GPRS/EDGE, MiniSD card slot, 2.7 inch QVGA screen (240×320), WIFI, Bluetooth, FM radio, and tiny 102 x 58 x 18.5 mm size.

I think the O2 Apollo looks great in white, white devices seem to be increasing in popularity at the moment.

EDIT: Notice the video conferencing camera and the WCDMA 3G frequency tests. This is a 3G device! There is no mention in the manual because they just re-used the old one for the Atom. – Thanks Surur

There seems to be quite a bot of news lately around O2’s XDA brand. The next smartphone device to come to O2 will be the XDA Graphite.

The O2 XDA Graphite is an attractive looking ‘candy bar’ style smartphone which, according to the sales blurb, features a “Look and feel that is similar to a regular phone, the O” Graphite offers both familiaritu and ease of use.

Spec. seems pretty nifty too!

It’s also worth mentioning that the Graphite is NOT manufactured by HTC but rather ASUSTek and is based on an improved version of their Vodafone V1210.
