Huawei has already announced back in 2009 at the MWC an Android phone. I am not sure if that ever hit the market.

The Huawei IDEOS features HSPDA, Wi-fi, Wifi Hotspot functionality and it will come in black, yellow, blue, and purple. The press-release is not revealing more yet. The photo shows what Huawei announced at the MWC 2010. Not sure if the IDEOS has changed since then. I will update this story with more details once available. Huawei will exhibit at the IFA 2010 and sure also present the new IDEOS Android phone. Update: We received now photos of the IDEOS phone. See the gallery for hi-res shots of this budget Froyo phone.
