MetroPCS has added a new low-end phone to its offering. It’s the ZTE C78, which because of it’s “low-end nature” has hard time impressing anyone. The fairly ugly candybar comes with a VGA camera, Bluetooth support, 2-inch 176×220 pixels screen, 60MB of internal memory, and 900mAh battery that can sustain up to 180 hours of standby and up to 220 minutes of talk time. As for the size, it measures 110x50x14 mm and has a weight of 91.3 grams.

And that’s about it. We’re not sure about the pricing though, but I would be surprised if it surpasses $50. You can check out MetroPCS’ website to get more information, in case you actually care…

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

    The worst phone ever made in the history of phones. It freezes and you have to take the battery out constantly, the volume is crap, the screen goes out,the slightest tap will reset the phone and it doesn’t charge properly either. It will say that it’s fully charged and then when you talk, the battery is seconds away from shutting off the phone. It takes hours for it to fully charge! I only had this phone for 3 months! It’s a terrible phone and I know several people who have this phone and have complaints about it as well. Shame on MetroPCS for selling this garbage to their customers.
