Hi,
Just have a quick question for you all.
I am in the market for a new iPhone, as my old one was stolen. :mad:
I have been searching the net for second hand iPhones, and have seen some that are the "chinese version" iPhone. Judging from the pictures, they are in fact iPhones.

Has anyone had any experiences with the chinese version of the iPhone, good, bad or indifferent.

I need my iPhone fix...

Thanks in advance.

You will need to post your question in the Apple Media Devices forum, as your post, in its current placement, breaches forum rules.

Well as said, it's not an iphone, it just looks like one. So there won't be any apps, it'll work differently to your iphone and it'll generally be crap. Stay clear.

Please read the sticky, cunningly titled "IPHONE IPHONE IPHONE - use the Apple Media Devices (AMD) forum - IPHONE IPHONE IPHONE"
