The company's belief is that the simplest solution is often the best solution and have thus tried with this handset to combine an easy-to-use Odyssey Interface, Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 6.1 smartphone operating system and their Velocity Over The Air updates. The outcome is a sleek but rather similar-to-HTC form factor.
"Consumers these days are demanding more from their phones. Our research tells us that people want experiences, not applications and functions," said David Hayes, president and managing director, Velocity Mobile. "Velocity Mobile has brought together some of the greatest minds and best of breed partners in the industry to deliver positive experience and value to consumers."
Velocity Mobile’s core leadership team collectively has nearly forty years' experience in innovative mobile engineering, design, sales and marketing, and is working in collaboration with Inventec Corporation, one of the world's top three original design manufacturers (ODMs) for notebook computers.
Together, these two companies have developed this GSM handset that incorporates features like a Qualcomm Mobile Station Modem (MSM) with a MSM7201 chipset, a touch screen display with a 640 x 480 VGA resolution, 256MB ROM with 128MB RAM and Bluetooth 2.0. The Velocity 103 also features Wi-fi, integrated GPS, a 2 megapixel camera, TV/VGA out and MicroSD expansion slot for more memory. It uses a trackball for navigation much like you’d find in a Samsung or Blackberry Pearl.
The unlocked Velocity 103 is available for pre-order online now through Expansys for Rs. 26,477 (£334.99) and will ship by the end of September.
