Products well into production don't get the latest Android since they are going for low cost over latest OS. Porting the OS is not free.

Hi All,
I'm new to the mobile/cell phone world, and am looking at ordering an unlocked phone from offshore (assume that I have heard all the usual warnings about this idea, and have decided to proceed anyway).
I note that a number of relatively-recently built phones operate on Android 2.x. This isn't a rare occurrence, so there must be a reason.
Anyone know?
Thanks!
