Cheap UK Android Phone

I bought a cheapo Alcatel OT 983 Android phone to play with, it was only £40 from o2 on pay-as-you-go


Here are the specs...


  • Android 2.3.7 (Gingerbread)
  • 3.5" Capacitive Touch Display (320x480)
  • 1Ghz CPU (Broadcom BCM21552)
  • 512MB RAM
  • 3 megapixel camera (but no camera flash)
  • Wi-Fi / USB / Bluetooth
  • GPS
  • 3G
  • FM Radio
  • Micro-SD Slot (comes with a 2GB Card)
  • Charging by micro-USB cable (mains power supply provided)

As it comes on the o2 network, I'm going to get a giffgaff SIM card which should work fine.

Hopefully I'll update this blog with some experiments and projects.
