It looks pretty okay for its price tag, I am going to guess its half the 300 dollar for locals if the 300 dollar is for foreign price seeing how DPRK has a really smart way of converting KWON to USD but really sucks for consumers imao.
Its the only phone you can get when you are in North Korea. North Koreans are forbidden to buy Samsung or any other smartphones brands beyond their country
I have my friend from North Korea. she's got a smartphone. I'm asking where do you buy a smartphone? she said buy in my country. she was a student exchange, but only 1 year old. there is a special internet for north korea people
Those who only goes out of North Korea especially the exchange students are possible came from North Korean Elite family which have high ranking status to North Korean government even Kim Jun Un was once an exchange student in Sweden
They've probably pirated the older version of android OS and customized it. They should develop their own OS if they've the resources to do it would be fascinating to say the least. That's a nice glimpse of the North Korean tech world.
I studied accounting. If access to the internet is restricted how can they produce smartphones in limited quantities and cover the cost of creating a system. Smartphone support costs billions but because so many use it cost is no problem.
Helvi Hautala according to all known laws of economics the communist should not be able to succeed. The communist of course still does succeed because communists don't care what economics think about them. Stolen from the bee movie
I think people should stop seeing North Korea as the media tells us. Just when the media started talking shit about my own country causing everybody to spreading hate about my nation I realized I shouldn't fall for everything the media or any European or American nation claims. So I started watching this channel and did also research on other platforms and noticed this "North Korea is soo bad" thing is made up shit
mcblackice I don't think he is wrong. I'm sure there are major backdoors. Anyone that's worked with Red Star OS, the DPRK's linux distro, knows how insane the monitoring is. Not that the west is free from this given Windows 10 monitors everything down to mouse movements. Of course western media is going to lie and over-exaggerate when it comes to the DPRK, but there is no good reason to defend the bad things they actually do.
Abh monitoring might be true but my comment was related to the general situation about North Korea. I'm studying Journalism in Germany and I'm writing my bachelor theses on the persuasion theory. Which shows how German media brain washes people into hating other countries like the US, Russia, Turkey, China, North Korea. Ok North Korea might be a dictatorship but saying that people get monitored 24/7 and killed in concentration camps is a blame without any evidence. Also the Internet connection between the us and the rest of the world is monitored 24/7 with a filter system of the NSA but nobody complains about that.
its more than a song title, it is a folk story about a young couple who are torn apart by an evil landlord, used to represent the division of Korea, into the north and south, north Korea still aim for unification but in their own way....there is a channel called Asian Boss who interviewed North Korean defectors who talked how north korea still teaches them a lot of unification, while the South Korea doesn't get taught much about it.
Why are you laughing? the song is 600 years old. The people of North and South Korea name everything arirang, soap, toilet paper, burritos, there is even a TV Channel in Los Angeles named arirang,
There is intranet, but you can pay for internet as well, just like how one pays for vpn. However, the internet is extremely slow as the country did not join global communications.
Western apps like Clash of Clans or South Korean ones aren't available for download for sure. If there are apps for download, they're probably North Korean propaganda. But it's probable that there aren't any apps. Most people don't even have enough money to afford a phone.
Everyone who thibks that this is fake...It's true because only NK mobile phones have red flame application on the backscreen you can't instal it You got that app when you buy a phone so Jaka Parker's chanell is true. Long time ago I had very bad mean about NK but now I think that their life isn't so dark. P.S. At 11 at night when NK goverment turn off power you can be on the mobile :DD
No, Jaka is an Indonesian diplomat. he lives in wealthier area of Pyongyang and the NK gov gives foreigners and diplomat a freedom for driving a car, buy from local market, and eat at fast food restaurant runned by gov. so NK goverment is hiding the truth to the world.
kata siapa ga ada internet, itu youtube cm diblokir.. pastinya itu smartphone made in China, karna ada aplikasi youtube terinstall (aplikasi pabrik istilahnya)
All the features that make the smartphone smart have been removed
@CommunistBotname fits
Fun Fact: Its Made in China
No

Wrong, it was made in Pyongyang North Korea.

It looks like 2008 hehe

I wish I could have a North Korea cell phone
300$USD for that?
Wow, no, thanks.
but is worth of money
smasnug
Its the only phone you can get when you are in North Korea.
North Koreans are forbidden to buy Samsung or any other smartphones brands beyond their country
If it's 2014 they can put Android 4.4 instead of 4.2, because the first Arirang had this OS version too.
When you bought that cell phone in North Korea where you able to bring it with you when you left
Jaka can u please explain to us how u were able to upload RUclips videos in NK but not access social media I'm confused on their censorship. Thanks
smoka sotin he recorded this vid back in 2015 when he was still in north korea.
now hes back in his country
smoka sotin He uploads them when he gets back to his own state.
Probably cant since NK internet is probably as fast as dial-up, remember this is a country with hourly power outage in the capital.
How do you know?
The UI/UX is very impressive.
This is a joke right?
@@elphbwckd212 It's literally identical to Android from the same era?

Thank you for the Great video
Thanks
im surprised because the wallpaper wasnt the picture of leaders
That was custom jellybean OS, definitely very old OS.
They've probably pirated the older version of android OS and customized it. They should develop their own OS if they've the resources to do it would be fascinating to say the least. That's a nice glimpse of the North Korean tech world.
AOSP exist.
yeah fr how do you pirate android @@MCPEngu1
Android/Linux is open source bro

Why does the phone have the year 2015 on it? I thought they use a different year than we do?
This is super interesting! What type of operating system would you say that ones on?
DaddyTitoplz Android
Android 4.2.2 Or android 4.4
Wonder how many backdoors are installed on that thing. Riddled with government malware I'm willing to bet.

Anything that comes out of
North Korea is worth money in America cause it’s rare and hard to get
u got any state approved games on yo phone?
the brand is "arirang" hahaha it's a song title in South Korea

i laugh not for disparaging or anything just habit and i knew it. i have korean family and i even watch after school club every tuesday
There's even a korean restuarant called "arirang" near where I live LOL
Thank you for sharing this video regarding North Korean cell phones
LOL.... twitter cant penetrate the NK firewall...
Hi Jaka, look, I'm Brazilian, so how can I buy a cell phone like that?
Arirang Made in North Korea Only Support Kwangmyong, However There has no WIFi Suppot.
Do you work for an embassy there? What do you do there?
photographer
you paid 300USD for goddamn Android Jellybean devices?
I genuinely surprised they have smartphones.
flyby501 a lot

Talking tom versi NK
..
Only North Korea software in North Korea phone
Can you receive calls from outside dprk?
only if you hack and have a death wish
NK has it's own network. It is impossible to call out without a Chinese "satellite phone"
Yes he can
Any App Store there or even similar app?
How affordable is the phone for the average citizen?
Eh its not jaka, it's his wife
Android semangka apa duren nih. 😀✌ pagar semua bahasa nya 😄

So how to unblock Internet in North Korea.
Shravan Chakravarty vpn
DPRK uses intranet. It isn't connected to the global network, but it is accessed through China's internet, yet it is extremely slow.
Gak ada aplikasi yang terkenal 😅😅😅😅 yaiyalah lha wong anti barat/amerika
tapi based operation systemnya android....kn dari mMerika
No google play store? I wonder how they get apps...
Hari Sibila they don't lol
It's degoogled but tracks everywhere
north korea smart phone
we had iphone already :)
Is there internet in NK ?
Samael Lilith theres only intranet
There is intranet, but you can pay for internet as well, just like how one pays for vpn. However, the internet is extremely slow as the country did not join global communications.
Kind of strange that NK uses android on their phone 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yuichiro Brah it's because Android OS is very open source just like a Windows computer and you could easily install anything out of the browser
Android is like a mobile version of Linux. Also, some of these phones come from China.
Review their iPad
i wonder if it have spyware on it.
Interesting.
Tampilannya kayak Android ICS 4.0
Even a ZTE or an HTC is better than that 2013 4.4.2 KitKat shitphone
It was in 2015
What apps are for download, like Clash of Clans or one from South Korea?
I'm not at all informed on this, but South Korea is basically North Korea's archenemy. Probably not :D
Western apps like Clash of Clans or South Korean ones aren't available for download for sure. If there are apps for download, they're probably North Korean propaganda. But it's probable that there aren't any apps. Most people don't even have enough money to afford a phone.
haha intresting. North Korea is an entertaining country :-) what about rooting this and removing all backdoor malware?
How mouch do they sell it there?
about 300 USD
Is it sold on the computer store you featured before?
Nope. It sold on different store.
I find it strange its not in English since I suspect that the only the English speaking elite could afford that phone.
How do you know?
