iPhone that Runs Android. Sort of.

For many, Android on a 3.5 inch capacitive multi-touch screen in an iPhone –like package will be a dream phone to have.

This is what exactly a Chinese manufacturer has tried to do with APhone A6. APhone A6 is an Android powered iPhone clone boasting of a dual core processor, 2.0 megapixel camera and with an iPhone –like theme running on top of Google Android OS. It is believed to support multi-touch functionality which is kind of strange, given that it runs on Android 1.5 which doesn’t offer support for multi-touch screens.

APhone A6 will be the first iPhone clone to be powered by Android OS and it will render 26 million colors, unlike all the current Windows Mobile-based clones which only supports 16.7 million colors. Detailed specifications of APhone A6 are as follows:

• 2.0 megapixel camera.
• 3.5 inch capacitive touch screen LCD
• Multi-touch
• Bluetooth 2.0
• WiFi
• Runs on Android 1.5.
• Interchangeable battery
• Dual core CPU with clock speed of 300 Mhz
• Skype Client (Built-in)
• Supports Email and Office compatibility
• 20 built-in games
• Weather widget
• 130 MB RAM
• 256 MB Flash memory
