Often mentioned, Electric Pig have got a hold of ZTE's first Windows Phone, the Tania, and put it through its paces. They've found a competent Windows Phone, albeit one that seems to be very hard to find on a network contract.

Really though, what’s missing here is the software extras. It’s hard for manufacturers to differentiate on Windows Phone, but Nokia and HTC have shown it can be done. The former provides free satnav on Lumias with Nokia Maps, and even DLNA streaming with Nokia Play To, while the latter has its own movie and TV show rental service, HTC Watch. ZTE provides none of these things on the ZTE Tania. You get vanilla Windows Phone: by no means a bad thing, but a little less interesting when the Nokia Lumia 710 can be had on Pay As You Go with turn by turn voice directions built in for free.

After reading their review, if you really want the Tania, you can order it SIM free from Clove Technology in the UK.
