The battle to overshadow the dominance of the iPhone heats up next month when T-Mobile and Orange are expected to unveil exclusive deals to sell the latest Google Android platform touch screen phones in the United Kingdom, reports The Guardian.

Orange is expected to hold exclusivity with the first Android based smartphone from Motorola, the Motorola Morrison, and T-Mobile is expected to unveil the first Android based smartphone from China’s Hauwei, the T-Mobile Pulse.

Both handsets expected to become available before Christmas and are expected to challenge the might of the iPhone 3GS, although T-Mobile and Orange UK have not commented.
