Orange launches £9.99 Alcatel clamshell

alcatel-ot-e227.jpgJust in time to miss Christmas, Orange has released a dirt-cheap Alcatel OT-E227 handset on prepay, costing a mere £9.99 (Plus £10 top-up).

As fits the price, the clamshell handset is pretty functional with a 1.5-inch 65k colour screen, and pretty much no bells and whistles. What it does have is a whopping 325 hours’ standby time and 10 hours’ talktime, and it weighs only 70g.

To attract custom, the handset is nattily decked out with Fuschia (Apparently THE colour this season), glossy black and metallic rose.

Alcatel describes the phone as a “great basic handset for first time mobile users”. They’re not wrong!
