Overview

Orange SPV

Editors rating
Rating: 7.6
Verdict

Orange’s SPV is the first Microsoft Smartphone 2002-powered mobile phone to hit the UK market. You’ll need to be a technophile to get the most out of its extensive feature set, but Orange has put together a good-value package that should prove tempting.

Typical price

£ 179
