In retail selling phones Inoi journalists are not found, a pre-order they only offer store Buyon is the only model Inoi R7 with 16GB memory and a slot for two SIM-cards sold at a price of 11 990 rubles.

According to the Director of the “Open mobile platform” Pavel ages, deal with “Mail of Russia” became the first contract on the device with Sailfish in Russia and the world. He noted that system has “full control over all functions of the smartphone”, the ability to monitor infrastructure device management from the customer, as well as cryptographic protection of information.

Sailfish Mobile OS Rus called the first domestic mobile operating system, which is designed to oust foreign OS giants Google and Apple. In Russia about 75 million smartphones, of which 74% are on the operating system of Google and about 20% for Apple (iOS), said ages.

According to Paul Agase, iPhone and Android smartphones monitor users: collect personal data (contacts, calls, their time, photos, videos, etc.) and behavioural information. This threatens the information security of not only the individual but also to companies and ultimately the state.

That is why was born the idea of creating a national mobile OS. Despite the fact that it is made on the basis of an open platform Sailfish (developed originally from Nokia), it is argued that it is a fully domestic product. “The entire infrastructure of the OS is inside Russia. The data processed by these phones, in any case do not leave the perimeter of the system. In addition, all codes are inside of the Russian Federation”, – said agesa.
