Baidu is like the Chinese counterpart of Google, both starting with a search engine then ventured out to creating an operating system before finally partnering with a mobile phone manufacturer to create their own smartphone.  
Baidu phone, specs of this new device includes an MTK6573 650MHz processor, 3.5-inch touchscreen 480 x 320 display, a camera with a 3 megapixel sensor, dual-SIM capability, a microSD slot, and a 1,400mAh battery that cannot be removed. It also runs on a Baidu Cloud Smart Terminal Platform which is essentially a Baidu-enhanced Android Gingerbread operating system so you can expect voice search, voice control, and other online services from Baidu including 100GB cloud storage space.
