CECT P168 3 of 10

Another near replica of the iPhone is CECT's P168. The phone seems to be solidly built and features a 3.5-inch touch screen, 3D surround sound, and a 1.3-megapixel camera. The company even mimicked the Apple OS in the P168's screens. But CECT got one thing wrong: When the phone powers up or shuts down, it plays a Windows sound file. The P168 phone lacks a lot of iPhone magic, too, such as visual voicemail, an accelerometer, a proximity sensor, and an ambient light sensor. The phone's case features a line of buttons just below the touch screen. You can watch video of the phone here and here.
