What do you think of the fake i phones?
hey guys
My wife wants a Iphone but all she does is text and pics. She jsut needs a better phone she has a cheapo ATT basic phone. Im thinking of getting her one of those fake I phones ( cant spend 300$ on a new one) What do you guys think about those. She doesnt care aboutthe apps and stuff. She jsut wants a better pic screen and easier text phone. The one she has now sucks for texting. too many steps to get to the text screen i can get a fake I phone for about 80$ Thanx Rob |

If she said that she specifically wanted an "iPhone" by name, don't give her anything but. You'll regret it. All the women I know are big on "name brand" stuff. If she just wants a better phone, have her pick it out.

No she just wants a better phone. if it comes to the point where she wants a i pone Ill give her mine and ill get the newer one. She jsut wants somethign thats easier/quicker to text and get messages with. My wife is pretty much not the brand name slut. She jsut wants something easier to text and see pics sent from her kids.

Then I say go for it. I've never heard of them though, so I can't really give my opinion on the phone itself.
Good luck

You can get one of the older generation iphones for the same price on ebay. Just gotta stick her SIM card into it. The iPhone doesn't sell for $300 new either.

If she needs a good texting phone then she needs one with a keyboard.

This. All my wife does is text so I bought her the LG Xenon. Sweet little touch screen phone but it also slides for a full qwerty keyboard. Was only $50 at Best Buy when I upgraded.

Android phones are more like an iPhone than that thing, oh and they do things the iPhone doesn't such as true multitasking.

They added MMS with the last update. Only took them two years.
