why get this when you can add another $140 to get the real thing - 4gb if you can still find one... this fake would have been fun for the price if Apple hadn't dropped their price.

This looks too creepy to buy. Wait until Apple hears about this.

I Saw this on TV the other day, these iphone clones are not only nearly identical to the real thing, they add extra features the original doesn't even have, they take it a step up, while the price of items that become cloned can be up to 5 times cheaper than the original. Apple knows.

It's a iFone. and look at their disclaimer. It is quite hilarious. Apple vs. TOMOTO!! haha

"Note: iFone is the world mark registered by TOMOTO Inc. in Taiwain

Warning: It will break the law without authorized by TOMOTO Inc. if you use 'iFone' logo on any electronic products."

Someone is selling a quad band version on Ebay. However, I don't know if the seller is full of it.

Default CECT P168 (iPhone Clone) $159 Shipped!

These videos show the back, which actually has the apple logo andsays iPhone (not iFone). I think DX changes logos so they won't get in trouble

What about Meizu's M8?

It looks much better.

The Meizu is actually nice. I don't consider it a iphone rip off. If you think about it, how else are you gonna make a touch screen cell phone. They all are pretty well gonna look like the iphone somewhat.

So, would this be worth it to buy since it can be used right away as a phone without unlocking?

I'm not very technical so does it have good specs? As good as the actual iPhone?

Thanks guys!
