Cocoon is a cool cell phone from O2, a leading provider of mobile communication devices and solutions. It received Bronze at the International Design Excellence Awards 2008 for an innovative feature that allows the user to access a hidden LED display on the front of the clamshell, which reveals current phone’s status. If you are listening to the music it shows track details such as the artist’s name, track info and radio information. When you are receiving a call or text message it shows the caller ID.
Also, the LED lights flash when you miss a call or when the battery is low.
You can set it to show the time or use it as an alarm clock in its Nest that’s also a charger.



The inspiration source was the designer’s answer to the question "what inspires you, and what do you want from a mobile phone?" - Something emotional. Original. That doesn't look like a phone or a music player - something more natural, that's visually stunning and functions perfectly.

It’s main functionality is of a music phone, so O2 Cocoon comes with an advanced player with dedicated music keys for instant access to your playlist, FM radio, support for 2 pairs of headphones via the special adapter, pre-loaded tracks, videos sand ringtones from popular artists such as The Doors, as well as enough free space for up to 500 high-quality songs. You can create playlists, fade music during calls, playback music for up to 15 hours, and the Cocoon mode that sets the phone to record all missed calls and messages while allowing you to listen to the music undisturbed.
The built-in digital camera is not missing at this phone model. There is a 2MP camera with video recording, flash, zoom, autofocus and self-timer capabilities.



For personalization, you can see the phone to change the wallpapers every minute or hour.
Cocoon has an organizer, calculator, Bluetooth, USB, games, handsfree, the Windows Media Player 11 application, and QuickTime player for video playback.
It has 2GB internal flash memory, support for up to 2GB via a microSD card, and provides up to 5 hours of talk time, and 350 hours standby time.

O2 will release until the end of this year two new mobile phones called O2 XDA Stellar and O2 XDA Orbit II.
O2 XDA Stellar will come with a 65K colors touchscreen and a display resolution of 240x320 pixels, measuring 112x59x19 mm and having a weight of 190g.

The most important characteristic of this phone is the advanced built-in 3.15MP camera with 2048x1536 pixels resolution for photos and with recording capability.

From the few specs that we know at the moment, the QWERTY keyboard and the handwriting recognizing features and only two of the features that make this phone at least interesting.
In addition, the phone runs on a 400Mhz Qualcomm MSM7200 processor, and Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional. Its Li-Ion battery of 1350mAh allows for 7 hours of talk time and 365 hours in stand-by.

The second phone model is the O2 XDA Orbit II that has the same basic features of the previous model, but it is a little bit smaller measuring 110x58x15.5mm, and weighting 130g.
It also comes with the 3.15MP camera with autofocus, but the battery life in this case is shorter, of 5 hours in talk time.

Let’s wait and see what other specs will follow next regarding specifications, price and availability.
