Haier may not be the greatest handset manufacturer, but the company plans on launching an Android phone in September, or so we’ve heard. The device will hit France first and it’s already on display at CommunicAsia 2009, for everyone to see. Too bad that it’s only a mockup…

Haier H7 comes with a 2.8 inch touchscreen, a 2 megapixel camera, GPS, WiFi and Android 2.0, if it gets launched by then. Expect the phone to cost around $150, probably on contract.

Haier Revealed “NetBooks” and Android Phones @ MWC 2009

Haier was present at MWC this year, with a couple of MIDs on display, strangely enough dubbed “NetBooks”. The device you can see on the left of the image below is a mini-laptop that was also showcased at Haier’s booth, accompanied by other similar portable devices.

The company had also brought two Android handsets at MWC 2009, unoriginally named the G1 and G2, plus a BlackBerry 8900 twin that didn’t make it to the famous blogs’ photo sessions.

The two Android phones were out of battery, at least when the folks of Engadget tried to test them, but what they found out was that one of them resembled the BlackBerry Storm, only lighter, smaller and with a new OS.
