Vodafone has launched the Smart platinum 7, its new flagship smartphone to mark a decade of creating mobile devices.
The device is available in Qatar across all Vodafone’s retail stores and online at www.vodafone.qa for QR1,599.
Back in 2006, Vodafone began creating devices to reduce the cost to its customers of owning the latest mobile technology.
It also wants to enable them to access well built, slim and sleek handsets and its fast and reliable mobile networks.
The first Vodafone Device (Vodafone 710), launched in October 2006, was a low cost 3G clamshell feature phone.
The Vodafone Devices range now includes 3G and 4G smartphones, tablets, mobile data products and broadband routers.
More than 85mn Vodafone devices have been sold to date.
Vodafone has built up a wealth of experience in creating devices over the last decade, working closely with component makers and manufacturers.
Its aim has been to deliver great value experiences using the latest smartphone technology while never compromising on build quality.
The Smart ultra 6, Vodafone’s highest specification smartphone of 2015, was praised by many expert reviewers.
The smartphone won a series of awards, including: best value smartphone 2015 – Recombu; best budget smartphone of 2015 — Mobile Choice; best budget smartphone of 2015 — PC Advisor; best budget smartphone of 2015 – Btekt; and best buy award — Expert Reviews.
The Smart platinum 7 is designed to meet customer requirements for a smartphone that contains the latest mobile technology.
It delivers top class performance and is tuned to the operator’s fast and reliable 4G+ networks.
Patrick Chomet, group director of terminals at Vodafone, said: “A growing number of our customers take a closer look at Vodafone Devices when choosing a new smartphone.”
