Virgin Mobile Q4 Holiday Season Handset Roadmap leaked

By on October 7, 2010 at 2:10pm in Mobile News, Virgin Mobile News


Yesterday we posted that Virgin Mobile was getting ready to launch the BlackBerry Bold 9780 on October 21st. Earlier today we let you know that the Android-powered Samsung Galaxy 5 was hitting Virgin on November 12th. And now we’ve got more light reading for you.

What you’re looking at is the upcoming Virgin Mobile Q4 Holiday season handset roadmap. You’ll see the recently released BlackBerry Torch 9800, the 2 devices we mentioned earlier plus a few more new one. The entry level LG Sway is a slider that has a 2-inch display and a 1.3 megapixel camera. The LG Flick is another exclusive touchscreen device that has a 2.4-inch display and a 2.0 megapixel camera. Both of these will be $0.00 on Virgin’s SuperTab/contract. In addition, the Samsung Gravity 3 will be released in a Yellow/Black model… plus you’ll also notice the White iPhone 4 sitting pretty up on the top row.

So this is a good scope of various devices: entry level, mid-range and high-end.  What do you think about the holiday lineup those Virgin Angels put together?

  3. Well, good to know I won’t be signing with them due to the lack of Vibrant.

  4. Disappointed by their selection of Android phones. I was waiting for the Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. I guess I’ll have to go with Bell.

  6. It really doesn’t matter what their phones are. The horrible customer Service that VM errr Bell Canada uses out of India was enough to make me switch.

    • I can guarantee you, anyone who speaks with an Indian accent working for Virgin Mobile is from one of the centers in Canada.

      I guess by Indian you could be referring to the call center in Manilla, Phillipines, but.. well if you can’t tell the difference, I’m not going to bother telling you what it is.

  8. Wow. So much for waiting for the Vibrant from them.. Guess I’ll grab it from Bell and use it on Virgin.. since you can do so without unlocking it and all, and the data networks are identical, so you shouldn’t have to change any settings for it to work..

  12. I have a feeling that no galaxy S is really going to hurt virgin’s bottom line, I too will now be switching to bell.

  13. LOL Its the LG Flick

    And to correct AwesomeP = Virgin was always owned by Bell, well 50% anyway. It was, and remains, a partnership.
