Iphone clones

If you want an iPhone, get an iPhone. Theres no way this thing could make you happy.
If you cant spend too much money look into similar phones from Samsung, Motorola and LG.
 
Well the phone is for my daughter. She had an LG Shine but killed it. She has 100 dollars saved up to spend and wants an iphone. I was trying to find something new or used in her 100 dollar price range.
 
You can get a real refurb iphone for $99 if you're on AT&T.

Also, these rinky dinky knock offs don't fare very well with normal use. If your daughter is hard on phones that won't last a week.

what is wrong with iPhone 3G 8GB now sells for 99.00
 
Even the 4GB 1st generation iPhones are selling for ~$200 on Ebay, so getting a used one out-of-contract is well above $100.

I've never heard good things about the iPhone clones.

There's the "HiPhone"

The newer i32 version is supposedly a bit better, but still the reviews are centered on how buggy it is and how the voice and sound quality is too quiet.

There's the CECT P168 and M88. They are both running Windows Mobile 6 - which is a bit ironic. They generally have not completely terrible reviews, but you can read for yourself:

There's the Meizu M8 and Miezu MiniOne. These are perhaps the best iPhone clones available... but their price generally reflects this, and these are well above the $100 limit.

Personally, I would recommend avoiding these clones and instead buying a 3G iPhone at the new $100 price point, or if you want avoid AT&T contracts, then increasing the budget a bit and picking up a 4GB iPhone on Ebay.
 
Well thanks all.. contract is out of the question as I just resigned a couple of months ago. I will just look for something from Samsung or something.
