Dell Mini 3i

We already knew about the Dell Mini 3i but now we know it will be official released in China and Brazil. It looks lika a cross between the iPhone and the Palm Pre with some touches of the HTC Magic (myTouch 3G). In China, the phone will be released without 3G by China Mobile and in Brazil with 3G by Claro. We think it is trange that a US-company is not releasing thier first big time phone in the US.

And now the Dell Mini 3i is announced the official speca and princing are still not known, but we know that the China version will run China Mobile's Ophone OS on top of Android and it will arive in November. The Brazilian version will reach the customers at the end of the year but it is still unkown if it will have a custom UI on top of it.

Just two days ago we first heard of the Dell Mini 3i Android phone, or something similar. This phone could make its way to the US market. Now we are wondering which carrier is going to sell this phone, well its AT&T according to Wall Street Journal.

More news to come about the Dell Mini 3i

Dell Mini 3i

When we first heard that Dell was making an Android-powered smartphone we couldn't help but get excited. Seriously, the biggest US computer manufacturer creating a smartphone powered by our favorite OS? We were immediately on board. Then came news that the Dell Mini 3i, the much anticipated Dellphone, was going to be China-only. To say we were disappointed is an understatement--we were absolutely crushed. How could a US company, like Dell, ignore the US market? Especially when we were thirsting, starving even, for more Android devices??

Luckily, it looks like the Dellphone, the Mini 3i, might just find its way home--rumors are pointing towards a US release and it's going to be even better than what we already know. As it exists now, the Dell Mini 3i won't cut it in the states--they'll likely add Wi-Fi, bump up the camera to 5 megapixels, and improve the device. It's going to be thinner than the iPhone and have a similar feel to the Palm Pre.
