Fake Chinese iPhone - C-002 is the REAL iPhone killer

iPhone clone C-002 Sure, every handset vendor and their grandmothers are putting out their own iPhone-killers, but leave it to the Chinese to make a real iPhone killer. While others are concentrating R&D resources on design and UI tweaks (remember, the future of mobile is the user experience), the Chinese-made C-002 basically takes Apple’s iPhone design and stuffs its own guts inside.

Now, Apple never intended for the iPhone to be a “reference” design, but we’re sure the authorities in the Far East won’t mind if anyone rips off Apple’s work.

The C-002 claims a “rock solid 99% iPhone clone” that features:

1. 3.5″ big screen that supports finger touch and no keypad, touch pen needed.
2. Dual SIM slots that holds two SIM chips and supports SIM card switching.
3. Triband GSM 900/1800/1900MHz that supports USA GSM standard.
4. Web addresses entering; web browsing, WAP setting, web address management.
5. Unlocked to any major network carrier.
6. SMS, MMS, voicemail and cell broadcast
7. MP3, MP4, file playing, recording, phone call recording.
8. Capturing, video capturing, photo viewing, playing
9. Hands free speaker phone. 3D sound.
10. Bluetooth supported.
11. TF card supported.
12. Diversified screen switch
13. One-Key return
14. Automatic screen rotation

Actually, with Trans-flash (microSD) expansion and removable batteries (not to mention the video recording and dual SIM card support), the C-002 offers everything that is lacking on the real iPhone. But, will it survive a showdown with a semi?

We can’t be sure if it’s the angle of the camera/lights or what, but the C-002 has a fairly “janky” look to it. But hey, for $239, you really can’t complain.

I love that they kept the apple logo on startup, and the fact that it’s not the “iphone”, it’s the “HIphone!”

but it does seem a bit slow at registering inputs, though

Still, it’s impressive.

I wouldn’t be surprised that by the time the clones get to be “100% iPhone” that it would be like $100 less than an unlocked iPhone.

There is no iPhone killer. I haven’t seen one iClone yet to be as rich as the iPhone.

The user interface still dominates big-time in the iPhone. Nothing is as smoothe and reliable. And no Wi-Fi or GPS? That sucks.

I bought an i68 (God knows whichever version was brought to me…I can’t figure it out) for about $100 and I think it’s crap that it’s called a clone. It’s a good phone for the money, don’t get me wrong…but it’s no clone.

The EPHONE M8 is the 100% iphone clone with accurate touch screen response
with wireless application protocol and gprs support connection,camera,tv function and bluetooth.
Better than iphone.The EPHONE M8 cost only around 140$ compared to 700 dollar of unblocked iphone.

Another iphone exact clone is the Meizu M8 with wifi function

Here in China these are everywhere, they sell them on the streets and in the markets for next to nothing. Starting price is around $100, but you can bargain down to $35. Works almost as well as my genuine iPhone. Real iPhone wont work out here, so a $35 clone with dual SIM was a nice replacement.

I came across one of these and in the back it is missing the apple icon and the “i” before Phone. I don’t have a charger tho. Does anyone know what kind of cable I need? I took it to a cell place and they didn’t have one that matches and told me they hadn’t seen such connection before

I’m here in north thailand and was up in Burma and purchased a chinese IPhone 4.0 for 50.00 US. It is an exact copy with apple logo iPhone logo 32 GB on back, camera both front and back, bluetooth etc. There was no mini flashcard in the slot so put a 2 GB for testing. Everything works, facebook, bluetooth, wifi, even the FM radio. I put it next to a US import iPhone, look exact? Came with a manual with print you need a magnifier to read, charger both USB and wall. For a quad band, 32 MB dual simm phone unlocked that actually works? Well 50 US is a steal. May buy another next sat. when I am there. Orders anyone? HAHAHA.
