How to improve Battery life and reduce overheating on your Android phone.(Huawei Ideos) <http://www.safaricom.co.ke/index.php?id=1247> <http://www.safaricom.co.ke/index.php?id=1247> 2011/3/9 Willem de Groot <willem@byte.nl>
After visiting iHub last week, I bought one as well to take back to Holland. The safcom agent was muttering about the phone locked to the safcom network but this proved to be false. Actually I am very happy with it, it even replaced my HTC desire. It's smaller and the battery lasts slightly longer. And my colleagues are jealous :)
In the uk it sells for 200 £ ...
One missed opportunity is that commodity apps aren't installed on the homescreen by default. My non-tech friend was struggling with finding SMS mail and the camera. She almost brought the phone back to the shop to get a Nokia.

What everyone seems to be forgetting is the cost! Common sense has it that if you want a smartphone with great battery life that can do your dishes and laundry, you should be prepared to pay for it. The phone costs 8,500 bob and ships with 1,000 KES of airtime that you can sell as soon as it's handed to you! It's a great deal. What are the alternatives in the same price range? For smart phones? *NONE*. Feature phones don't even ship with similar features...
The phone may not be the best, or made with the sexiest hardware, but it gets more people using smartphones, which is good. If someone who was price sensitive experiences the device, he/she will save to buy a better device... in theory anyway...
