Virgin Media is going Android crazy, as the company puts it, adopting a quartet of phones based on Google’s operating system.
The company has recently launched the LG InTouch Max, and coming freshly released is the Samsung Galaxy Portal.
The InTouch Max has a 3.2 inch touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera, 3G, wi-fi, GPS, and a slide-out Qwerty keyboard. The phone comes for free on a £22 per month plan.
As for the Galaxy Portal, that comes equipped with a 3.2 inch touchscreen, a 3.2 megapixel camera, a 1GB memory card, assisted GPS, 3G and wi-fi. It also boasts a fancy navigation app called Layar. Again, you can get the handset free on a £22 per month deal.
Two more Android phones are due at some stage next month, the first being the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, with its 4 inch WVGA screen, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 8 megapixel camera, wi-fi, 3G and GPS.
The other is the HTC Desire, which is very much like Google’s Nexus One. The smartphone sports a 3.7 inch AMOLED touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera, and a 1GHz processor.
Pricing details on these last two phones have not yet been made available.
