It's a excellent smartphone,i was tested it in WMC Barcelona 2011 and i enjoyed that very much.About price!Persons can buy it here in Portugal in Optimus network by 199,00€.It gonna be a top salling device already,and persons who buy that device dont get be disapointed 'cause it have a lot's of apps and it is 2.3 Gingerbread.I ask to people who wants to buy a top device to buy that because it is a top of tops with a short and agreable price.For me its an excellent sugestion.I will buy it.

I was just about to get other phone when i spoted that in orange. Had Blade before and it was good. didn't like small screen and high res which made evrything look so small. I think I will wait for SK8 now when it get released elsewhere. Don't like orange puts lots of rubbish into their phones. Apparently SK8 should support adobe flash! YEY!

This is out now in the UK, for a £149.99 + £10 top up from Orange, they sell it as the Orange Monte Carlo. I might get it as I can sell my Blade for £130.
Although come on GSMArena, now its out you should be able to tell us what processor this has, is it still ARM v6? Also is there GPU like Adreno 200 or maybe 205?

Libra is same as blade but the differences are in 2G snf 3G networks but updateing your blade gen 1 to generation 2 zou could have everzthing libra has , so libra is blade for othere networks, same as U900 which is for asian market. Skete is successor of Blade.

If it is as good as the blade, can't wait. Orange UK have it shown as available soon. I honestly still believe that the blade was better than HTC Desire when launched (Blade has better audio as speaker on side of phone and you can hear it!), so will this be more like an HTC desire HD, but budget version? Love ZTE phones, very good value and actually better than some much more expensive versions. China has another winner here I feel.

ZTE wait for the skate to be realease because they want get rid of their blade stock first .probably they have millions of ZTE blades to sell or still in production order.summer vacations may affect buy tedency as well.

I think people need to cut some slack for the Skate. I'm still using my Motorola DEXT, or CLIQ for others. I will say, ZTE are hopeless with their release dates, but I think this phone has potential. Bear in mind, my DEXT has a 528Mhz CPU, a really old chipset and GPU, a 3.1 inch 320x480 px display... This will be somewhat of an upgrade for me. I don't go for the uber expensive androids, I'd much rather have a budget one. This looks nice enough. I mean it has an 800Mhz compared to my measly 528, and the San Frans 600 I don't think was enough of a jump which is why I didn't get that. The issues with the dext are clear, its slow, very outdated, got a small screen, and had ( I have re-rommed) a horrible overlay to android. I think this phone is great for about 200 euros, about 160 pounds, and considering I paid £130 for this DEXT, it will be a great improvement. Plus the RAM is at the average 512, would have been nicer to have a tad more, but hey! I shall be getting this when it comes. I really do want a bigger screen, a faster phone, android 2.3 and a more show-offable handset. The DEXT is an embarrasment to use in public. It's a brick. And you can't play angry birds at all. Honestly, it must do about 0.5 fps on the dext. Yet I have seen a demo video, where someone shows the phone has the capability to play angry birds well and properly. Give it a break people, but ZTE, get a move on, this here DEXT needs a damn upgrade fast. And I'm well behind on 2.1! All the froyoliciousness I am missing out on! And the gingerbreadoliciousness! I thing, for the money, it looks good, has good specs and does everything I would want it to do. I really believe you should all appreciate your current phones. And I really think that it won't become instantly obsolete, look at the wildfire, still going strong with mediocre speca

And how about Skate vs Huawei X6? If you compaire them you will notice that Skate has delayed more than it should.. Hopefully X6 won´t be expensive, making it n1 choice..
