So, you know how it is. You’ve got one of those home phone and broadband packages but, when you call a mobile phone, it’s not included in the deal. Somehow, every month, you go way beyond the “headline figure” that got you hooked into the deal in the …
So, we saw the whizzy camera technology in the HTC One Series devices. You probably had a look at it in one of our videos, then saw some very similar rapid-fire camera technology in the Sony Xperia range and the Orange Intel phone. The new HTC phones have …
The Santa Clara is, it turns out, just a codename at the moment. So perhaps, just perhaps, it might appear as the Orange London we thought it would? Powered by a rather rapid Intel Atom Z2460 1.6GHz CPU, this has 16GB of memory, HD voice, NFC, 1080p HDMI …
Remember the Orange London we mentioned a short while back? Well, it turns out that this is real after all. It’s had a slight name-change, but the Intel innards are right there. The Orange Santa Clara will use an Intel Atom Z2460 CPU and will feature a fast …
Orange have just announced that they will carry the Sony Xperia U exclusively in white. To be honest there’s not a great deal we can tell you about this currently but we’ll get a hands-on with the device shortly as it’s literally been announced in the last few …
The word here is “whoops”. Looks like the yet-to-be announced HTC One X is now plastered all over the Orange website for all to see… More as we get. Remember where you read this first… Link – Orange Shop Credit – Andrew Exelby
Well, we knew that Orange were taking the Xperia S, but now things have moved a step closer with the new Sony Mobile proudly sitting on the “Coming Soon” section. We’re hearing very good things about this phone, and we can’t wait to take a look in Barcelona. …
When you go on holiday or working abroad you’ve got a couple of options for keeping in touch. You can either take your own mobile and keep every conversation really short, or you can buy a SIM card for a local network from eBay, unlock your phone, stick …
Argos Online are showing the White version of the Orange San Francisco with a price of £62.99. This is a very good bargain, considering the specs that while not being top end are certainly better than the price indicates. I would say if you’re on the look out for …
As a mobile network here in the UK, Three are the most vocal when it comes to social media but not only do they communicate with customers online they take the feedback and use it in a positive way. For example when The One Plan launched on a …
OK, we’ll ask the question. After trawling the web for literally minutes and hitting lots of nothing we’re a bit puzzled by the Orange London. The shot above was sent in by Simon Hardy, who was presented with the info after completing a survey.. As an Orange customer, …
OK, story so far. We picked up some tweets from the T-Mobile UK Help Team stating that “Full Monty Tariffs have a max speed of 1MB/s”. A day later, and T-Mobile told us that this was a mistake, but still we were getting sent phone calls where customers …
We’ve spoken quite a bit about speeds recently. Our recent news item surrounding possible throttling on T-Mobile data plans caused a lot of controversy. We were told shortly after that the information provided to us by various sources was incorrect. But, it got me thinking… In my article …
Since their merger in 2010 under the Everything Everywhere (EE) banner, Orange and T-Mobile seem to have been getting understandably closer as brands, with their network sharing and co-branded stores. Now EE are looking to distinguish the two, with their forthcoming marketing campaigns aiming to position each brand …
Ofcom have had a re-think on their 4G auction. Earlier they were planning to reserve a slice of the new 800MHz spectrum (freed up by the removal of analogue TV) for Everything Everywhere. The joint network, which powers T-Mobile and Orange, operates on the 1800MHz spectrum for both …
I don’t know what it is, but the Xperia range looks totally different now that the “Ericsson” name has gone. The all-new Xperia S appeared on Monday and you can expect Three, Orange and O2 to carry it. Specs on the Xperia S include that 4.3″ HD (1280 …
Three confirmed their intention to carry the new Xperia S within minutes of the device getting shown at CES the other day. Now O2 and Orange have both stepped forward to confirm the same. Conor has just posted a tweet to confirm that Orange will be carrying the …
Orange have just announced their new 7″ tablet running Android Honeycomb 3.2. This isn’t the first time Orange have sold their own Android tablet, and we asked Anne Bouverot last year (when she was Exec VP of Mobile Services at France Telecom) whether their re-branded Huawei S7 would …
The Samsung Galaxy SII is amazing. We know that, you know that. However, when Orange (and Barclaycard) launched their “contactless payment” service the Galaxy SII wasn’t listed as a supported handset. Actually, there weren’t a great deal of phones supporting the “touch to pay” system. To do this …
Come on, with only hours to go you’re no doubt looking for deals and ideas for Christmas. Orange are dishing up the Motorola Defy, complete with 3.7″ screen, FM radio and Android 2.1, for a mere ￡99.99 with a ￡10 top-up. Well… They were… It looks to have …
The guys over at Orange have kindly lent us an Orange Barcelona to review. The Orange Barcelona is a low priced Android handset in the candy bar format with a hardware keyboard and touch screen. Think Blackberry (or just look at the picture below). The spec highlights are …
Well, it seems to be for us at least. Just a week after whacking their prices up, we received this text today from Orange. It basically means that you’ll be roaming across to the other network and receiving 3G data if you need to. In theory you should …
OK, story so far. Everything Everywhere are running a 4G trial in Cornwall. Everything seems to be going well, with those on the trial enjoying around 11Mbps. Whilst this isn’t the fastest possible speed, it’s a lot better than the cabled broadband connection through ADSL. There’s some concern …
In a move which will annoy a lot of people, especially those who this is relevant too, Orange have announced they are to increase monthly prices by 4.3% starting in January 2012 it has been said over at Mobile Today. ‘Unfortunately, we’ve had to re-evaluate our prices for the first time …
We spotted it as “Coming Soon” a few days back and now it’s arrived… for new customers. The Galaxy Note is a rather large and rather sexy phone which has a dual-core 1.4GHz CPU and 5.3″ screen. Orange look to be giving away some goodies as part of …
OK, status update. The Nokia Lumia (which you may have seen advertised if you’ve been near a paper, TV, magazine or … anywhere ourside) appeared in shops on Wednesday. It’s available on the following networks here in the UK.. – Orange – Three – Vodafone The guys at …
Check for updates if you’ve got a Sony Ericsson Xperia neo on Orange. We’re hearing that Android 2.3.4 has just arrived and there’s a few extra Orange apps too. It’s taken a number of months since other neo handsets started receiving the update. We’d like to hear your …

If you’re after the hot new Google phone, try checking out the deals on Phones4u. If you don’t mind parting with £59 up-front then you can get the handset for £31 a month on a 24 month contract with Orange (400 minutes, 3000 texts, 750MB data) or Vodafone …
Yesterday various sites reported that the Orange help and support site had details for an upcoming handset, Orange have since removed the page. This handset was the San Francisco II. The rush of excitement around the handset was because the original San Francisco (ZTE Blade) was one of …

At last, the “big switch-on” is coming. Last year, as many of you may remember, Orange and T-Mobile began sharing their networks. Customers could enjoy the seamless swap-over to the other network if their normal network lost coverage. There was, however, one problem. Data roaming was restricted to …
Everything Everywhere networks Orange and T-Mobile have made the iPhone 4S available to pre-order and revealed their pricing. As you might expect, they’re very similar between the 2 companies, with the popular £36 slot giving 600 minutes, unlimited texts and 500mb internet, with a £99 up front cost. …
Orange and T-Mobile customers have now been able to roam onto the merged “Everything Everywhere” network for about a year now. It’s setup currently so that you roam across if your normal signal drops but it’s still 2G-only. There’s hope that this will change to 3G roaming sometime …
