Huawei are launching two new phones, the IDEOS X6 and the lesser specced IDEOS X5.
IDEOS X6 - 4.1 inch screen, Froyo, 512MB, 2GB ROM, 1Ghz Snapdragon (later version)
Although most UK networks seem to have done deals with HTC, T-Mobile UK actually offer the T-Mobile PULSE, which is a Huawei phone. If anyone provides the new IDEOS X6 over here it might be them. Private companies like eXpansys, Clove and Play.com may also offer it. It looks good, but compared to whats coming soon, and if there is a promised upgrade path to Android 3.0, will be what will make it popular, or a failure. Oh yes, and its pricing. I like it though.
EDIT:
Looks like I was correct. T-Mobile look like they've got the IDEOS X5 renamed as the T-Mobile Comet (this is for the USA, but could still come here also, as its a GSM phone). I still prefer the IDEOS X6 though. I have a feeling that Huawei may be cheaper than HTC. There was nothing wrong with their (T-Mobile) PULSE (in the UK), but it was just not very exciting. Did the job I suppose for a very cheap Android phone.
