It ’s like that episode of Beverly Hills 90210 when Brenda and Kelly both say they detest that pitch-dark dress with the big white bow on it , but then they each show up to the terpsichore wearing the thing . And then they had a pillowfight in nothing but their hot pinkish scrunchies to battle for my love . Yeah …
Some masses call them iPhone dead ringer , others call them showing up in the same touch screen . Whoever started developing first does n’t count any longer ; we just want to know which sexy iPhonish smartphone deserves our child ’s “ college fund ” the most . tally the jump for our Frankenpreview of the different “ iPhone ringer ” coming to the market , and see how they stack up against the Vision of Apple .
iSoftPhone
Price : $ 100
What ? ?
It ’s not actually a headphone . It ’s VoIP software that just look like a phone .
But !
Hold your Macbook up to your ear , and that hipster chick eyeing you up at Panera will never know the remainder .
Neonode N2
Price : N / A
https://gizmodo.com/neonode-n2-iphoneclone-navigates-using-finger-strokes-235743
2 - inch 176 x 220 display
2 Megapixel camera
GSM Quadband
GPRS
Mini - SD one-armed bandit
OS : Proprietary
What ? ?
The N2 uses a innovative , but non - visceral gesture port . But its self-aggrandizing problem is its modified data capability since it lacks newer , speedy infection standards . And without WiFi as relief , there is a limit to just how “ impudent ” this phone can be .
It ’s only half the length of the iPhone and weighs just a minuscule under 2 Nanos ( about half the weight of the iPhone ) . You have to appreciate the sharply pocket-size variant factor mate with an interface that , at the very least , confronts the issue of impossibly small buttons .
Teclast T59
3.5 - inch display ( VGA )
3 G
Wi - Fi & GPS
OS : Windows CE
The T59 is 100 % construct rendering at this point . As far as we can say , they have n’t even build a mock - up for beautiful model to pretend to be talk to us on yet . So until we see it … allow ’s just say we ’ve been ache before , ok ?
The largest model ( as in product , not the hot model mention above ) is said to hold a monolithic 16 GB of music and video , which is forked that of Apple ’s phone and bigger than any company ’s options on this list . But more significantly , it sports an FM radio !
LG Prada
Price : $ 778
https://gizmodo.com/lg-prada-hands-on-so-stylishly-iphone-like-only-prett-235823
eyeglasses :
3.0 - inch display , 240 x 400
EDGE data
2 megapixel camera
microSD
The Prada lacks both WiFi and built - in storage — consider the hefty price tag ( you are load even more than Apple , LG ) , these features will be more than missed . Plus , Europe and Asia get the Prada first while we convince ourselves that the pink Razr is still all the madness .
The Prada is a bit diminished than the iPhone , ca n’t be worse than the Chocolate and … it ’s not the iPhone — as theymade clear . And Apple has become so materialistic …

Meizu M8 / MiniOne
3.3 - in VGA touchscreen
GSM and TD - SCDMA
3MP camera ( back ) , .3MP television camera ( front )
goggle box - Out
OS : Windows CE 6.0
This Cartesian product is the real mountain bang - off , actuallychanging their designpost - iPhone announcement . Consider the MiniOne the technological equivalent to knocker implants . Sure they face may calculate good , but do they really offer the same exploiter experience ? ( That question is n’t rhetorical , btw ) .
720×480 picture playback at 30fps might mean we ’ll in reality use the Meizu for porn casual project , especially with its TV - out option . perhaps the more of import aspect of PMPs is less regarding the 3 - in CRT screen clarity , and more about the gadget ’s power to interact with home dramatic art equipment — wherever you may be .
However , the long and short of it is that most of these Apple alternatives wo n’t see American releases shortly , if at all . So even though it may seem like the food market has flooded abruptly with thousands of wizardly touchscreen earphone , the option may ( unfortunately ) be easier than you ’d think .
