Dell’s Thunder, Flash, Lightning & Smoke Phones

Dell had a bit of a mass leak today, with a flood of new phones. Some of which are actually quite impressive. Possibly the best amongst the bunch, is the Dell Thunder, pictured above. It’s an Android-based smartphone with a 4.1″ WGVA OLED screen and Dell’s own custom ‘Stage’ UI on top of Android (it’s also speculated to have a Snapdragon CPU, although that’s as yet unconfirmed). It looks quite nice indeed, and reminds us of HTC’s EVO 4G or Sony Ericsson’s Xperia X10. It’s due for release at the end of this year.

Engadget also has coverage of all the other new phones Dell leaked, including the Windows Phone 7 based Dell Lightning phone (which has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard), the quite sexy Android-based Dell Flash which is a bit like a smaller, metallic version of the Thunder, the oddly designed Dell Smoke (a candybar phone with a QWERTY keyboard, also running Android), and Dell’s big Tegra 2 powered 3G tablet known as the Dell Looking Glass. That’s a lot of stuff!
