19th January 2005 - ZTE Corporation, China’s largest
listed telecommunications manufacturer, will unveil
two of its leading 3G handsets at next month’s
3GSM World Congress in Cannes.
Visitors to the ZTE stand (H1&H2, Hall3) will be
the first in the world to see the Corporation’s
F868 and F858 handsets and the first in Europe to see
the F808, the world’s smallest 3G handset. Also
on its world debut will be ZTE’s MF 320 data card.
“ZTE continues to invest in being at the forefront
of mobile technology and the 3GSM World Congress is
the perfect venue to unveil our latest successes,”
said Zhou Linlin, general manager of ZTE’s handset
division.
"We started research and development on handsets
as early as 1998 and are now able to offer a total wireless
solution incorporating all three standards of handsets:
GSM, CDMA and PHS. ZTE will continue to develop cutting-edge
technology and plans to launch handsets that can support
A-GPS, Bluetooth and HSDPA in the near future."
Weighing only 104grams, the F808 measures 88.5mm x
44.6mm x 22.5mm and features voice, multimedia messaging
and a built-in rotatable 300,000 pixel camera. It can
also provide video phone capability, multimedia play
and high speed data download.
The F868 and the F858 both support versatile 3G services
such as video, streaming media, MP3, MPEG4 and WAP browsing.
The F868 is designed primarily for business users and
features a 1.3 million pixel camera and a large LCD
screen; the F858 is more cost-effective and features
a single LCD screen and a 300k pixel camera. ZTE’s
MF 320 data card is designed specifically for business
consumers who need to be able to work on the move. The
card enables users to switch between UMTS and GPRS networks
and supports Internet browsing, voice and SMS communication
at the same time.
ZTE continues to succeed in the mobile technology market:
the Corporation’s handset sales grew from 4.6 million
in 2003 to more than 12 million last year. ZTE also
previously achieved the first detachable CDMA handset
in the world and the first Chinese dual-band GSM handset
in China.
