SciPhone G2 Dream Review

This new SciPhone is a knock off the HTC Dream and has some features of the T Mobile G1 - namely it runs off of the Google Android interface.  Of course, this makes tons of things possible at your finger tips, like google maps, google searching, google mail, google SMS, Blogger, google calendar, google docs, gmail, etc.  

This one is a tri band and unlike many clones, it’s only single sim.  But, this phone more than makes up for this in other areas.  It has the finger touch interface.  It has a 4.0 MP camera. It has an android music player and it can hold up to 16MB of memory. And, it has WiFi.

It’s also among the fastest clones on the market as it browses the net over edge 2.75G as well as WiFi hot spots.  It has the shake to the music or shake and tilt control feature which is very popular on other clones. The icons are very cool and intuitive on this phone. It is sleek and light - weighing in at only 110 grams. It has a high resolution touch screen. The keyboard is qwerty, but is build in to the touch screen. Basically, a flat electronic keyboard comes on the screen when you are ready to text or enter info. And, you can enter a lot of info. This supports all of the office / smart phone features as well.

Like almost all clones, it is contract free.  You can use any GSM sim card (AT&T, T Mobile, Cingular, etc.) Even pre paid GSM sim cards work on these phones.  Right now, there are a few available on Ebay, but I predict that there will be more soon.  You can check out what is available by clicking here.  If you are not a member of Ebay, you can sign up here for free.  You may want to scroll down and check out the photos, specs, and video.

The FTC requires that I disclose any affiliations or relationships between what you see on this site and it’s content. I have not been “paid to post” or given free items. I am not representative of Apple, CECT, or other manufacturers. I am, however, an affiliate of Ebay, which means that I make a commission if you link up to Ebay through my site and purchase something. (You can read more about this in the cookie and third party ads language below.)

I also need to disclose that I am not, by an means, a tech expert. I like to review and compare products, but your experience may be different than mine. I make no claims as to what your experience will be and do not represent that mine is “typical.” You may or may not agree with me with my opinions about this product.

This website and author is in no way affilated with CECT or Apple (or any other phone manufacturer for that matter.) I am just a consumer / blogger who enjoys reviewing and using these phones and products. I’m not the manufacturers or any representative of them and I do mean to represent the same. I’m merely stating my findings and opinions (and hopefully giving a decent review / overview.) Thanks.
