After a few weeks of speculation, Orange UK decided to finally confirm that a sequel to the San Francisco does in fact exist and it's coming soon. The San Francisco
II is a handset we first heard about last month, and over the past few
days we've seen it in official shots, and a rumor even gave us the pricing and release date.
Orange has posted a video to its YouTube channel. In the video (which you can see below), the San Francisco
II is quickly presented. Unfortunately no exact release date is given,
so we still don't know if the rumored November 21 launch will pan out or
not. However, we do now know the official price.
The San Francisco
II will be sold for £99.99 with an obligatory £10 initial top-up.
That's exactly the price of its predecessor, and it certainly makes
sense considering that the new phone is only slightly upgraded. You'll also be able to get the San Francisco II with a contract, for free on plans that cost £10.50 per month or more.
