Vodaphone 150 & Vodaphone 250 - truly reasonable

This one is indeed targeted for poor rural India and will be a rage there. We are talking about the latest offering of Vodafone and handset manufacturer TCL's ultra-low cost mobile phones that they are launching soon in India.

In a country of millions of mobile users, for the first time with these phones - the Vodafone 150 and Vodafone 250 –lives in rural India will also be changed as they become part of the mobile society.



The Vodafone 150 has outstanding features and at this price, it is certainly a miracle. It can feed in 100 contacts, has 500mAh battery that offers 400 hours of standby and 5 hours of talk time and charges through a miniUSB port. The phone works in 900/1800 MHz GSM networks. Beside that, the Vodafone 150 also supports mobile payment services and has a flashlight on the back.

Very similar is the Vodaphone 250 except for two features, one that it is a little larger in size, has colour screen and the other that it has a FM radio. If ever FM radio can be listened in villages, it will definitely become the most sought for gadget there.

Its bigger color screen is 1.45" CSTN display of 128 x 128 pixel resolution - and is equipped with an FM radio with stereo headset support. The rest of the specifications remain the same. It also runs on 500mAh battery with 400 hours standby and 5 hours talk time, miniUSB port, 100 contacts and a flashlight.
