iOS4 ‘Clone’ Running On An HTC Device Performs Like You Might Expect: Garbage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IY-uRRCARJw Something bizarre, real quick – it seems someone big on time and short on things to do has decided to ‘clone’ iOS4 to an HTC device, and the video here is the result. Unfortunately, not much info on this, except that it’s Chinese, and appears to be slow as hell – at least as slow as iOS4 running on an iPhone 3G. But like I said last week, it’s not how well the pig dances, but that it dances at all. It’s pretty surreal to see iOS running on another device, isn’t it?
I find it interesting, but whats the point of just watching a video, I’d like to see it uploaded so I can try it for myself otherwise its worthless to me.
Its relatively obvious that this is not a port of the iOS, but rather Android skinned to look like it. Few people are noticing that this is the case. The telling points in the video are the swipes between homescreens (the background slides, which is an Android thing), and the App Store being opened for a split second (looks nothing like the Apple App Store). However, this is a fantastic skin. I’d like the person behind this to make me an Android skin for my iPhone 4.
Sounds like how well I expect it to work on an apple-made device.
