SciPhone I68 Cell Phone Review on TradeTang

There's no denying that the shake and tilt iPhone i68 clones are a success. Consumers love being able to shake the phone to advance songs and media without having to fumble around and scroll. There's other features to like too. The fact they are inexpensive and unlocked saves us a lot of money on phone costs and on AT&T or other expensive plans. Dual sim means that we can have two phone numbers on one phone so that we are always available.

There are many of these phones on the market right now. Examples are the HiPhone i32, the CECT A380i, A88, and the A8+.

The latest edition, the SciPhone i68(aka CECT i68), has all of the standard clone features, but it has added a few new ones. First, it's thinner and smaller, which is why it's sometimes called a "mini HiPhone." It's also added an E-book reader and an FM radio, but the addition that is getting the most attention is the latest version of Java.

Java enables all sorts of productivity and gaming software possibilities, including MSN, Office, and PowerPoint, to name only a few.

Now, if you can tear yourself away from the games (which is hard for me), you can read, edit, and email documents which makes this gadget a great mobile productivity tool as well.

This cell phone still has all of the smartphone specifications that you would expect, including: a generous 3.2 inch touch screen; dual sim slots; slide unlock; a 1.3 mega pixel camera which also serves as a webcam; Bluetooth 2.0; full MP3 / MP4 capabilities; web browsing, emailing and messaging via GPRS and WAP 2.0; and 2GB of memory.

Don't let the small size of this mobile fool you. It's super fast and it houses a slew of the latest features inside a tiny package. I love the E-book reader even though I thought I would never use it. When I am stuck waiting somewhere, it's really easy to finally get around to reading the e-books I constantly down load but never read.

The SciPhone i68 4g still has the loud Chinese speakers that we've been spoiled by. The 1.3 MP camera is actually pretty good. And since it starts at only about $150, you really can't go wrong with this one.
