SciPhone Quick Review

If you read my articles, you know that I am always on the look out for contract free, dual sim, finger touch import iPhone clones.  This one certainly fits the bill. What a cool phone this is. CECT has finally come out with a newer, quad band updated (and much cleaner) version of the HiPhone and the CECT P168 called the SciPhone. This one is thinner, sleeker, has updated Java (allowing MSN, Powerpoint, Word, Outlook Express, tons of gaming, etc.) and has added an ebook reader and FM radio. (Note: A recent upgrade has added MENU FLO TOUCH, upgraded firmware, and both sims being active at once.  It still has the shake and tilt technology as well as everything you loved about the others. For those of you waiting for a smaller, sleeker version, this one may be for you. It only weighs 95 pounds and is drawfed by a dollar bill.  For those of you who really liked the earlier versions but were frustrated by the lack of third party downloads, this may be what you’ve been waiting for - and the expanded memory is also very nice.  Feel free to take a look at the specs, photos and videos. This one is pretty impressive. It’s priced less than I expected - sometimes as low as under $100, depending on memory. I would highly recommend Ebay as the feedback system ensures low prices and honest sellers. There are many powersellers that are offering this right now.
