An official with the TCL Mobile Telecom Co, Ltd. declared recently in Beijing that TCL999D, a new top-grade member of homemade mobile telephones which cost nearly 100 million yuan for research and development, will be put on sales in late October. A related expert said that this represents the first step for Chinese homemade handsets to change the pattern featuring low technology, poor function and low price.
TCL999D has appearance and functions similar to those of Motorola V998, but it is easier to operate. Its standby time is 200 hours. The price of a normal phone is 2800 yuan.
