Tags: o2, windows mobile, connectivity, gps
We like:
Connectivity options including HSDPA; GPS capability
We don't like:
Feels chunky; lack of flash on the camera
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Compared to the original O2 XDA Orbit, the O2 Xda Orbit 2 adds some much needed oomph. It won't blow you away in the looks department but it's got it going on underneath the bonnet. If you need to stay connected and have a penchant for getting lost, then this GPS-enabled smart phone might be the perfect match for you
