SciPhone shocker! N12 handset features ‘genuine’ Android OS
It looks we don’t have ol’ SciPhone to kick around anymore. Sure, we had some laughs — mainly due to the fact that the irony-resistant handset manufacturer was ripping off an open source OS — but now it looks like all that has changed. The SciPhone N12 (apparently) runs genuine Android, sports both quadband GSM and WCDMA (3G), and packs a 3.2-inch touchscreen, WiFi, a GPS module, CMMB TV support, a 3.2 megapixel camera, and a 624MHz Marvell processor under the hood. Listed for CNY $1,600 (roughly $234), this bad boy should be out June 25. Check out a couple more pics after the break.

OMG, with everyone else getting Android phones out so fucking slowly, no reason to expect inferior software on this phone (Guess one can upgrade it for all android phones, no?) and the price factor of a chinese phone I might just aswell bite. Looks really nice to.
Hopefully it doesn’t come with a chinese quality to match, I’ve seen all these weird chinese phones but they always seem to have a quality matching the price?
Hopefully this isn’t one of them.
