Well this is a camera, with some phone utilities. This even looks more like a camera than a phone. Even Nokia Lumia 1020 looks more like a normal phone.
But if you need more camera than a phone, this may be just right tool. Maybe we will soon get professional cameras, with changeable optics tele zooms etc and a phone inside them. The next logical step upwards!
 
I only use my phone for texts phone calls, and pictures. But pictures i take twice as often as phone calls, and about the same as texts. So it makes sense to have a better camera. I so want, but not for that price. I'm willing to pay $300 under 2 year contract.
 
I can see someone walking down the street and talking to someone on this thing and then people just looking at them like they're crazy for talking into a camera. Little do they know they are the crazy ones because that camera is actually a phone!
 


On the official announcement page it is stated to run on Android KitKat (ver 4.4). Kind of what you would expect but I understand your confusion as it should have been one of the first things said. In fact I found that info at the very end of the news release. I guess just because Android is the default OS used as it's free and easy to customize a custom GUI but in my opinion they should really lighten its overall system load and RAM requirements in order to cut costs and battery usage (background processes loading up RAM using more battery juice). Google is working on this though with their Android L program. It doesn't affect me much since I almost always get flaghship models anyway (<3 my HTC One M8)
