China cellphone clones, would you buy them?

well i bought one just for the tv feature and nothing else. Its basically a good portable tv than those in the mainstream which is basically 10-20 times the price

I haven't really bought a China Phone. Good this China Phones these days are getting better. And the specifications, I can really say that the money is worth it.

I don't think I will buy them. It is hard to trust them

Actually I am planning to buy one, it is really cheap and I am tempted to buy it right away but I am a bit hesitant, I am a smart buyer so I want to be sure of its quality and its disadvantages from the original one. Anyway, I will just follow through this post so that I will hear from others opinion.

My girl owns one. They seem to be like the real ones. I think they are good as long as you take care of them.

I would never buy one ,,though i think it cheap and i am a chinese!!!!

Personally, I never buy any chinese products since I never trust their quality and although its available at a very low rate but still the quality factor takes a big hit in case of chinese products. Moreover the Chinese products are quite hazardous and for this purpose I never go for it. I trust German products and believe that the quality is quite high there

I have also bought a china phone but not for me but for my father. I must say that the phone is also good. The battery is fair and it also lasts long even if the screen is a 3.2' one. The performance of the phone is not so good though but I am already expecting it. Texting on a resistive touchscreen is almost impossible. I find it very hard to type a sing letter. Even using the character recognition or drawing the letter won't help. But I must say that it is already good for the relatively cheap price.

I haven't owned one. I'm really not planning on buying 1. I seldom buy new phones. I just bought 1 after 3 years. So when I buy 1 I make sure that its authentic. I have nothing against China phones but I think they should use different model name or create their own. I'm wondering why they are not getting sued for using Nokia Model names, which are patented by Nokia.

As a Chinese, I'm afraid of them because they were reported have spyware in them. The spyware can send SMS to sign up for services automatically when I don't know. The black-hearted factories collude with mobile communication companies and share the profit. That's terrible. Maybe no problem in Philippines, It's difficult for Chinese factories to collude with mobile communication companies in Philippines.

the only problem is that once your phone have problems and needs repair, china phone do not have parts for replacements.

they are good .... they work fine But problem arises when something goes out of order ...its hard to replace them ....So most of them became a use and through item ....Though I have been using one for quite along time now ...Functions are good easy to operate...Some added features as well ... One small tip... try to be gentle with them ... As long as its working... its GANGOOO... Best of luck ....:)

Well its a great joy for others that we have this kind of phones because they come in cheap, they also have neat features that can match the original ones or maybe more. Though i find the durability of this product as a liability and might cost you much or worse you might not be able to fix if the unit is damaged.

I don't have china phone and I don't plan to buy one since you really can't tell if they're durable. :(

HI emdyey: I have to say that after a bad experience with a chinese cell phone I bought on ebay that stop working in a week I don't trust in the quality of these cell phones. My cell phone touch screen stop working in just a week and I can tell you that it was not broken at the moment I bought and nothing strange happend during this week. So I prefer to buy a cell phone that would be more expensive but that I can trust on it. Thanks for asking us this question. Have a nice day. ALVARO

It just depends on what are you looking in your phone. I know most of the people are either crazy for touch screens, sound, having dual sim, and other outer looking which are easily copied by Chinese manufacturers. But I am a little different when choosing my phone. I just love to use my phone for net surfing, downloading new applications, playing intense games and all the fancy stuffs. And Chinese phones are just not suitable for these works. So my policy is to just avoid them.

they are good, all the functions worked but they battery empty so quickly and be jentel with your usage
