Orange delivers two new high-quality smartphones into the hands
of more people with the launch of the Orange Gova and the Orange
Reyo. Orange’s established and successful range of own-brand
smartphones continues to perform favourably against leading
smartphone brands as Orange combines ease-of-use and affordability
with the latest technological advancements to deliver an experience
that resonates with customers.

Sales of Orange’s own range of smartphones grew by 40 per cent
year on year (2012-2013) across its European footprint and market
share also grew by over 40 per cent last year, maintaining its
‘fastest growing brand’ status in Orange’s portfolio. With a record
14 new devices launched last year, double the number in 2012, the
portfolio is successfully addressing a broad spectrum of customer
needs from entry feature phones to high-spec 4G smartphone
devices.
4G Orange Gova delivers on speed and affordability
The launch of Orange Gova will be Orange’s fastest own-brand 4G
smartphone to date, capable of handling 4G’s optimum speeds of up
to 150Mbps theoretical peak throughput, delivering the full 4G
experience to customers. With 4G networks launched in ten of
Orange’s countries globally1 and 4G roaming on track to launch
across its European footprint by the end of 2014, more customers
than ever will enjoy making video calls, sharing high-res photos,
multi-player gaming and streaming HD videos and much more.
The category 4 LTE device has a slender 7.85mm profile, 4.5” qHD
screen, 5 megapixel camera and HD voice. It also features Android
Jelly Bean 4.3 operating system, 8GB of storage, 1GB RAM and a
quad-core 1.2GHz processor.
The Orange Gova will be available from April onwards in Poland,
Spain, Slovakia, and Luxembourg as well as Moldova, Tunisia and
Mauritius. Exact pricing and specific availability will be
announced locally.
The ample-sized Orange Reyo
The Orange Reyo boasts a 5” IPS screen with exceptional colour
definition, and offers customers looking for longer battery life a
full day of multimedia use. With Android Jelly Bean 4.2 operating
system, 5 megapixel camera, HD voice and a dual-core 1.3 GHz
processor, customers will receive an outstanding smartphone
experience.
The Orange Reyo is available now in Spain, Slovakia, Romania and
Poland. Exact pricing is determined on a local basis.
The Orange experience continues to evolve
Orange also introduces Orange Updates for its new
smartphones, which enables easy access to update Orange’s services
such as Orange Wednesday’s and Orange TV for example. It also
informs customers about the latest Orange applications without the
need to go into the operating system’s own app store to discover
them. Orange Updates is the latest example of how Orange is
listening to its customers’ needs and marks the beginning of a new
evolution of services to help customers get the most out of using
their Orange smartphone.
In addition to Orange Updates, the new smartphones are also
packed with Orange’s familiar features that are designed to make
the phone straightforward to use and easy to set up, especially for
those new to the smartphone experience. These include:
- Orange Home screen with standard and
easy modes. Introduced in 2013, easy mode has proven to be
popular with first time users of smartphones, delivering a
straightforward interface designed for customers to get the maximum
out of their smartphone.
- Orange Gestures - familiar to
existing Orange smartphone customers, the feature allows customers
to draw natural and intuitive gestures on their home screen to
quickly access their favourite contacts, applications, and
services.
- Orange Assistant takes customers
through the initial set-up of their smartphone with helpful
tutorials, hints and tips that are accessible at any point.
Yves Maitre, Executive Vice President of Connected Objects and
Partnerships, Orange, said: “At Orange we firmly believe that
smartphones and the latest technology such as 4G should be
affordable to many, not just a few. With the Orange Gova and the
Orange Reyo we are further delivering on that aim to deliver
high-quality smartphones without the premium price into the hands
of more people than ever before.”
