Pros: I bought this mainly as a backup for my phone (i have to replace the screen and if i can't fix it i needed something that would work). It's cheap, offers a ton of features and would make a nice present for someone less dependent on their phone for everything.

Cons: I'm used to the hard screen, so a soft touch screen with a stylus is a bit of an adjustment. This is NOT the phone that the instructions are for so getting it set up was a pain. When in doubt, search for the I9 and you'll find the right instructions. The AC charger exploded in a shower of sparks when i plugged it in-stick to the USB for charging.

Other Thoughts: A good phone for the price. The second battery, nearly global compatibility and ability to expand the memory sweetens the deal. I may even order a second one as a present for family members.

Bottom: I have the real one...and i could get used to the clone with few problems. it even offers some of the features apple has been lagging on providing.
