Wind continues to expand their lineup – they have just released the Huawei U1250 for a very affordable $70. This entry level slim device has a 2-inch display (resolution of 240×320), 2 megapixel camera, 3.5mm audio jack, FM radio, can hold up to 8GB with a microSD card and weighs in at a light 90 grams.
We did a quick look around this device and the design reminds us a bit of the Motorola Renew. What’s nice about the device is that it has dedicated music keys for quick access to all your tunes. As mentioned above it can hold up to 8GB, so for such a small phone it can hold a great amount. The camera is only 2.0 mega pixels and can get the job done when sending pics to your friends. Another good feature is the 3.5 mm audio jack – nice addition and glad to see Huawei when for this versus a 2.5 mm. Good low cost starter phone.
Check it out here at WIND

They have only extended that $150 credit till tuesday may 4, 2010. Now thats a really nice cheap phone they came out with. Now there is only one national company we can rely on and that is
GO WIND GO!

While the phone is not something I’m interested in, it’s great for people who are looking for a simple phone with basic functions. Especially the 70$ price tag, it’s really worth it.

$70 and it actually looks sleek and nice. Great color selection by WIND. I’m going to get this for my sister. So glad I didn’t jump on and Rogers or Fido prepaid stuff.

$70 is still too much for a crappy locked dumbphone that only functions on WIND which has zero coverage outside a handful of cities.

That’s great. Does it support Java (i.e. J2ME) apps?

I like WIND and this basic phone. No contract and $70 is a good deal. I just got it two days ago and I’m trying to customize the phone, like getting rid off the browser short cut on the prompt bar and changing the ringtone. If anyone figured it out, HELP… Thanks
