Tech Ticker

Looks like a cheaper variant of Magic is on the way, however, it won’t be from HTC. Haier today unveiled its H7 Android phone at the CommunicAsia that is strikingly similar to HTC’s Magic. The cheaper price tag is a result of dropping things like 3G and downgrading the screen to 2.8-inch or camera to 2-megapixel. Few things that remain constant Wi-Fi, GPS while FM Radio is an addition.

The phone is slated for a September release for about $150 and will arrive first in France.
