Dell Thunder roaring in the wild

August 16th, 2010        

Here’s another leaked phone out there. Engadget has what seemed to be a Dell Thunder, Dell’s Android phone running on Éclair. Spec wise, this Thunder has an 8-Megapixel camera with LED flash on the back, capable of recording 720p videos, along with a removable 1,400mAh battery at the back. Dell’s miniature tablet Streak is now in retails, so it’s no surprise that Dell’s gearing up for their ‘real’ Android-smartphone. The phone itself looks rather smart too, with chrome-like side strips, and the back looks like an XPS notebook design.

The prototype that Engadget’s tipster has on hand runs on vanilla Android 2.1, though the final product should wear Dell’s custom skin on top. Screen resolution is purportedly 800 x 480, though judging by that 7 x 4 icon grid up there and the tipster’s own experience, it could be even higher; the 4.1-inch display looks to indeed be of the OLED variety. Well, all that we can say is, yet another oversized supercar smartphone coming right up in this soon-to-be crowded market.
