The handset will support TD-SCDMA (Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access), a domestically developed 3G standard that the government has tapped China Mobile to promote and market.
The Lenovo phone, called the O1, will be the first to use both technologies, according to the company. It will also add a sleeker 3G phone to China Mobile’s offerings, combating the lack of attractive handsets that analysts say has helped keep down adoption of TD-SCDMA.
