Tesco's Pink Compact Mobile

C800"Right then, guys! We've got to design a phone for women. What do the ladies like? I know! Make-up and the colour pink! Right! Let's get to work!" This Newgen C800 looks more than familiar, bearing a striking similarity to the ill-fated Siemens Xelibri "compact" mobile. So forgive me if I don't hold out a lot of hope for Tesco Mobile's latest exclusive handset. The powder-puff style pink phone seems to have a few more features on board than the old Siemens number, including a camera and built in speakers with 3D stereo sound effects, but it will still require some level of dedication when it comes to using it - just looking at that strange doubled-up keypad is giving me the collywobbles. Strictly one for pink-fixated teens with plenty of patience, I suspect. Grab yours for £79.99 pre-pay (special offer). More pics after the turn.
