Orange Vegas unboxing video

We’ve mentioned the Orange Vegas a few times on the site already but we managed to get hold of one to review.

The Orange Vegas

Although the Vegas looks a bit like the HTC Touch, and has some obvious design similarities, it is in fact made by ZTE as the ZTE X760 rather than being made by HTC. It’s also not a Windows Mobile handset instead having it’s own custom UI.

Orange claim that the Vegas is the smallest, lightest and cheapest touchscreen handset available, while I agree that the £49 price tag on PAYG probably does make it the cheapest touchscreen, I feel sure that the smallest/lightest prize would go to the Neonode N2.

So the Orange Vegas is designed as an entry level handset, there are no bells and whistles. The lack of WiFi and 3G as well as the poor camera resolution will, perhaps, make the Vegas a no-no for the more sophisticated consumer. However the price point will certainly be a big plus!

We’ll have a review of the Orange Vegas up shortly but in the mean time have a look at the quick unboxing video and handset tour.
