Earlier today, Sony Ericsson has announced that the recently unveiled Xperia Ray is headed to Vodafone Australia. Not only that, but apparently Vodafone will be the exclusive carrier for the Xperia Ray down under.

The Xperia Ray will be available from Vodafone stores starting on September 28, so in just over a week from now.

Vodafone will offer the device on a variety of contracts, including the $29 Cap plan with $5 handset repayments over 24 months, or the $49 Cap plan for 24 months with no handset repayments.

The phone will be able to use Vodafone’s 850 MHz HSPA network alongside the older 2100 MHz band, allowing it to get better coverage.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray has a 3.3-inch 854×480 touchscreen, an 8 MP autofocus camera with LED flash and 720p HD video recording, a 1 GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, 1 GB of ROM, 300 MB of user accessible built-in storage, microSD card support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HSPA, GPS, and a 1500 mAh battery.

Good news for you in UK, The BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 is now available for pre-order via Vodafone UK.  The smartphone is currently being offered for free on plans starting at 41 GBP (about $66) per month.  The Bold Touch 9900 comes with a 2.8-inch VGA touchscreen display, a 1.2GHz single-core processor, a 5MP camera with 720p HD video recording, a full QWERTY keyboard, HSPA, GPS, WiFi and runs on BlackBerry 7 OS. So what are you waiting for?

Reportedly, HTC stated in an email that its 3D Android handset “will go on sale through Vodafone and distributors in six major European countries.” Unfortunately, it’s not quite clear if these six countries include the UK – so maybe Vodafone did cancel the handset’s launch, but only on British territory.

In any case, Vodafone UK is already offering the HTC Sensation, which comes with all the features you’ll find in the Evo 3D, sans 3D capabilities though (these aren’t that useful anyway). While Vodafone may have ditched the Evo 3D, you’ll still be able to buy it in the UK (starting September), most likely from most of the major phone retailers.

Vodafone has comes up with a device featuring the most popular social network, Facebook. The handset will be known as the VOdefone 555 Blue. It will only cost you under €100 (£88/$145) on a prepaid tariff.

The 555 Blue is a QWERTY candybar handset with a 2.4-inch non-touch display and a dedicated Facebook button. Aside from those, there’s also a 2-megapixel camera with an LED flash, a microUSB port for charging, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a microSD slot that can be extended up to 16GB cards. Unfortunately, there won’t be any 3G, GPS, and WiFi. It will available “soon” in Europe.

This morning Vodafone has just announced that they will dump the HTC EVO 3D from their line-ups. Mainly because they are scare the device will be delay in GSM’s version and caused damaged in rivalry with other devices. This might be a bad news for some people.

Here what Vodefone spokeperson have to say, “We’ve decided that due to delays to the launch of the device, we no longer plan to include the EVO 3D in our smartphone range. We will be contacting customers who have registered for updates about the device to make them aware of this decision shortly”, he also added, “We realise this will come as a disappointment to some people but we already offer some fantastic phones, like the HTC Sensation and Galaxy S2, with some really exciting handsets in the pipeline.”

Just like it did in the UK last month, Vodafone will replace the old Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v with the newer Tab 10.1 in Australia, too.The old Tab 10.1v isn’t available anymore, so the new Tab 10.1 could be released by Vodafone Australia as early as this month. Ausdroid received an image from Vodafone’s July catalogue, which shows the new tablet as “coming soon.” Sure enough, “soon” may actually not mean this month, but there are good chances it does.

The new Galaxy Tab 10.1 is thinner than the old version (8.6mm compared to 10.9mm), it comes with a new TouchWiz UX UI, and a different rear camera (3.2MP instead of 8MP). Other than that, the two Android Honeycomb tablets are pretty much the same.
