That is a real Linux android OS on the phone, But remenber since linux is a open source they can modified anything! also the phone doesent have a android market app because legal purpose rights. You guys more then anithing the here In the USA everithing is regulary by goverment !
smartphones with 2 SIMs are very bad on battery longevity
recharge it twice a day ? Or never use its smartphone features ?
Personally i'd better go for N19
However i must admit that this model (name is "DSTL1", SciPhone just resells tham like RoverPC and some other brands) is quite interesting. Even it's design, while quite exotic, is no more clone of Apple/Nokia/RIM smartphones! Great!
so i would have to buy it from sciphone themselves, hoping that postofiice would not break it during shipping and would not loose it and customs would overlook it. Then it is price of SciPhone plus their price for Tracked Air Mail.
PS: i can buy it on e-bay clones, but it would be from those, who purchased it just like i described above, not official import channels.
The N21 actually has real android and is an excellant phone, 100% if I still needed dual sim I would ditch my iphone and get one. Yes I do sell them and yes they are real android unlike the shoddy G2's. Also Android is a free code, Google released most of the Android code under the Apache License, a free software and open source license. So all you sceptics buy one or STFU.
are you sure about that ? check forums, there isa lot of people updating the os to the 2.0 version without problems, this phone is the same as the general mobile dstl1, check good at least before talk, n21 has real android 1.5 .
but don't buy the N19 if you're in the North America, because you won't be able to make calls. it supports ONLY GSM 900/1800 MHz bands, at least the ones you can buy right now.
@ProphecyRJ ut's a real android, don't talk about thing you knows nothing about, the G2 wasn't android but this ne is the real android, you can even add android apps... do not talk about things you don't know, you think you will get an award from HTC or something but you won't...

China does not have access to the code for Android. So they just simulated it. It's not actually Android OS.
Do not talk about things _you_ don't know about.
The original company that made the Android OS would not release their code. That's like Apple releasing their code for the MAC OS (lol thats never going to happen).
it's the real android in the sciphone n21, the screen in fact it's a resistive one so not like the iphone where you just touch & flow.. here it's like the normal touch screen.
realy good phone by the way for its price, i sell it, holla at me for more info
@ProphecyRJ first of all, i am not even monkeyland thing, because i would have just letting people talk or block comment page.. easy & second, expenssive... sure, 250 $ is way more expessive than a 600 $ htc phone or 700 $ iphone...
that is what i keep saying, people who claim that it is too expenssive forget that it is just 250 $ compare to 500 $ htc... they need to fix their brain.. i happen to have goten this phone... it is a good phone for those who wants a cheap TRUE android phone but thoses who are used to the htc hero, meizu m8, iphone.. they just won't like this phone

and wha about n19 ? does you know its virgin name ?
Ann0ynimouse 2 years ago
Well, n19 is a copy of the BlackBerry Storm.
N19 Android operating system is not totally fake, I have read that it can install some of the Android softwares.
If you want to buy one of these phones, buy the N21, N12, or Dream G2.
N19 is more of a typical Chinese fake phone
P3TR1i 2 years ago
Ahem.... I do not ask what it is styled for. Like chinese iPhone-like creatures are not iPhones inside.
I was asking about the real properties, not the stying.
N21 is not "looking like" Yuhua X2, it *IS* X2. And i wonder what N19 was in its birth, which ODM, which model, etc.
N12 is too pricey. N21 is draining batteries and i dislike its design. G2 is not Android, G2 is fake like those China-iPhones.
N19 is real Android 1.5 but no info how to upgrade/reflash it popped up yet.

This is not real Android OS, its a simulated Android looking OS.
It just has the look basically. The touch screen is not that great, but it works for what its meant to be used for.
Its actually very expensive for what it is, I suggest investing more in a real Android phone.

Is the OS really the Android OS or a fake? Also, the touch screen seems crappy and looks as if it needs to be tapped hard to work..

I have an HTC G1 - I can tell it's the real deal. Especially if you look at Sciphone's earlier "Dream G2" which faked Android (it sucked)

Really want an Android OS phone but on a budget right now. Thinking of buying a G1 on ebay but I've read that the battery life was terrible.
Shawnn671 2 years ago
@Shawnn671 the g1 is not real android, just android skin.
the n19 & n21 are real android, if yiy want a very cheap android phone, buy the n19, less than 200 $ & real android
jayo2k 2 years ago 2
i think he means the T-Mobile G1 aka HTC Dream
second hand off ebay
costs just about the same as this, maybe a bit more
