The death of the Microsoft Kin obviously doesn’t mean the death of cheap social media phones, with Orange jumping all over the new Motorola FLIPOUT. It’s an Android 2.1 device we spotted a couple of months ago and has a full QWERTY keyboard, 2.8″ touchscreen, aGPS, 3.1 megapixel camera, WiFi, Bluetooth, compass, 3.5mm headset jack, multi-touch browsing, 3G / HSDPA and a 1170 mAh battery.
This phone has an interesting “twisting” keyboard mechanism that rotates out from the bottom of the phone. Dan has just spotted it in Orange catalogues, so it’ll be coming soon to Pay Monthly and Pay As You Go plans very soon.
