Vodafone UK already has a ton of Android-powered smartphones in its range, and customers will soon have even more choice available with the launch of the Vodafone 845.

The 845 is the first VF-branded handset to be based on Google’s Android platform. It will run on Éclair, the latest version of the Android platform, and will be pre-loaded with VF 360 apps, giving users access to unique services such as Vodafone Music and MyWeb. The device itself has a 2.8” screen, offers Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and 3G/HSDPA connectivity, and features a 3.2MP camera and 500MB of memory as standard – for those of you that get excited by numbers :-)

The Vodafone 845 is the latest addition to an extensive range of Android-based devices already available, which includes the HTC Desire, Sony Ericsson X10 and the HTC Legend. With the Google Nexus One just around the corner, VF UK will be able to offer an Android device to suit everybody!

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
