Huawei announces Ideos at IFA

The IFA conference in Germany should be the source of all kinds of Android news over the next several days, and I’m particularly excited for Eric Schmidt’s closing keynote on the 7th. While we wait in anticipation for some major Google news, plenty of products are being launched featuring Google’s Android operating system.

Huawei announced a new affordable Android called Ideos yesterday, designed to bring Android 2.2 to the masses at the very affordable no-contract price of $175. While the specs aren’t mind-blowing (2.8″ capacitive display at 320 x 240, 528 MHz processor, 3.2 megapixel autofocus cam without flash), the device is a “with Google” vanilla Android gadget, and is said to have been developed side by side with Google. Huawei indicated that this will result in delay-free updates, as seen with the Nexus One.

Huawei’s official product page is up and down at the time of this writing.

umm dude wrong only G2,Droid1,Nexus1 run vanilla android. incredible runs htc sense, droid x moto ninja blur

my bad thanx ________________________________

Neither the Incredible and Droid X have stock Android, only the G2 and Nexus Ones.

I see this as Metro PCS Bound. Why is it that this OEM can figure this out and T-Mobile can not. All of the Android supporters need to take notice. If you want Android to get to the next level, there needs to be more than 3 phones (incredible, G2, Droid X) that have stock android. Gingerbread and Honeycomb need to have this as standard and custom UI's as an option. This would make the ecosystem more polished and silence the critics.
