China Iphone
75China iPhones Are Available Everywhere & They Are Not Against The Law
China iPhones or iPhone copies from China are readily available online. You are able to buy China made iPhones easily whether for personal use or in bulk for commercial purpose. These iPhones are not actual copies or the Apple's iPhone but clever imitations that are get by in China with their lax intellectual property laws. They do not use the Apple brand nor logo but they look almost identical to the iPhone.
Same iPhone Hardware, Different iPhone Software
The China iPhones are not sim locked like the Apple's iPhones and can be used with any telco. These raises the attractiveness of the China made iPhones by a factor of 10. Moreover, the China iPhones were made by reverse engineering the original iPhones and have almost the hardware, while some models are even better with additional camera in the front.

Cloning the iPhone without Trademark Infringement
The Chinese are able to employ cheap and smart engineers to reverse engineer the Apple iPhones and clone the circuit boards in a week. And while this is going on, another gang of software programmers will churn out a operating system based on Linux for the new iPhone.
The iphone clones are not trying to imitate exactly the original. They are satisfied with a lousy third, not even a second. This is because of the hyper-competition in China for electronic goods, especially electronic products that imitiate branded products like the iPhone.
Trying Out One Of The China Made iPhones
After trying one of the China iPhone at the mall recently, i was appalled at the user interface. It was so rudimentary that it look like a DOS operating system. The only part of the operating system that look like the Apple iPhone's was the main windows interface where all the icons were attractively laid out. Once you clicked on any of the icons, you will be shocked at the crappy text based screen interface.
I Would Not Buy The China iPhone But Someone Will
The China iPhone may not be for me but it will fit the bill for someone out there. It is cheaper than the original iPhone, have some different features such as unlocked sim and additional cameras. But most importantly, it is available to anyone today especially to the people in Asia.

i got mine from http://saramobi.com just for the sake of trying. i got a cheap mini version of china iphone and i was acually quite surprised and i was a happy buyer in the end.
Reliability is the only concern with chinese mobiles. Apart from that no other issues.

I too have this not work good. Very many models some good some no. Must be careful what one you get.
You are right Mee, there are so many different models out there and prices very tremendously. I just ordered one which is a model #PK168 and it was less than $100 so we'll see how it is when it gets here from China. I could'nt find much information on the different models available. Wish someone would post some reviews or comparisons.
hi send mee info ad price too pls

A007 one of the better one..
Today, april 22, 2010 I was in Shenzhen, China tried 5 or 6 iphones.
And they don't scroll and others use the pencil.
So I didn't get anything. Mine iphone got stolen 2 days ago in the subway in Shenzhen.

Some of these phones are actually very dangerous. There have been cases of batteries exploding in Chinese phones, especially in the cheaper varieties. Think about it, if they have an extra camera, more memory, more features etc, they have to cut costs somewhere. More often than not, that cost cutting is on the battery quality!
how can i connect to the internet using the china phone?
I just bought one from a supplier at buy-direct-china and the phones arrived on time. One of them is not working properly though. The mike's conked off.
Alsom, it looks EXACTLY like the original and has more features. Problem is it's not opening PDF documents and I can't find PDF software to install. Also, it can't open large files in the ipod that's in it. But not bad for the price..
I bought a copy Iphone in K.L it is one of the better ones , cost me about $50 more than the cheaper ones , its exactly like the real Iphone even down to the touch sensitive screen (have to use your finger, wont work with pen or finger nail)the screen scrolls smoothly like the real Iphone not laggy like other Iphone clones I have had in the past, it's a sealed unit (cant slide the back off to take the battery and memory out) u have to undo screws to get the back off and the sim slides in the top, however I dont know what OS it has or if it's just Java based, already installed is Google maps, Safari, OperaMini, YouTube, MMS, and Wifi. but I dont know what Apps to search for, Apple apps obviously wont install, the smoothness of the apps installed makes me think it has an OS of some sort as Java based touch phones are usualy realy laggy and this one isnt, any one have any ideas???
would like to talk to someone about the procedure to set-up my new iphone.
China iphones are really cheap alternatives to the original iPhones. However since it has a lower price, buyers must not expect too much from it such as durability and other technical concerns. As you have said, China phones are equipped with a different software. Remember that we get what we pay for.
i`ll like to have one like that urs , hawkinau .... nice jokin
