The Ciphone C9 is a clone of an Apple iPhone. The C9 can dual boot in to OS or Windows Mobile 6.5 and comes with quite a few decent features such as a GPS unit, 2 Megapixel camera, a choice of 4GB or 8GB of storage, GPS, G-Sensor, dual compass, WiFi and EDGE as well as a 3.5 inch touchscreen.
A full run down of the specifications can be found below which show that it’s actually a decent and capable phone. However, we are unsure of the build quality and if it meets that of the iPhone. Also with it running OS or WM6.5, we are not sure how good they are on the device and if it runs quick enough to make the user experience good enough. Chances are it will be a little buggier than the iPhone.

Nice phone, seems like the one i have seen at my website.
Bought 2 of these about 1 month ago. From my experience: this is a pretty worthless piece of equipment. Phone is worst part, almost impossible to use due to signal issues. The manual is about worthless, most of the programs on the phone come with no instructions or will not work. generally is a piece of “crap” beware.
