I am sorry to any who i am about to offend, but I am a man who strongly believes in the saying 'you get what you pay for'. No for who ever is contemplating buying one just because it is super cheap, well than i am sure you can guess wat i am about to say to you. THINK! OMG, save your 30us dollars and buy something that is actually worth it. Also, if you are unsure of something and you buy it off ebay anyways, you are an IDIOT. Becuase with many sellers once sold.. you screwed. Also, do you see this crap being sold at store or any other place than just ebay and other auction sites. (pause) NO, you now why because it is knocked of Crap and it si not worth anything. Anyways if you got the money to waste on suceh crap, then feel free go buy it, but if you have money lyign arounf that you can just waste like that then get the real deal not some artificial crap. Thank You and be wise

I already have an iPod so I woudln't buy it in the first place.
But I wouldn't buy it even if I didn't have an mp3 player. They look (obviously) fake and pretty cheap. Small storage space makes it look like it's simply a flash disk rather than an actual HD.

Plus it doesn't include the necessary parts? Or so that guy said.

I don't know, it all out doesn't look good. If I was rich or something, sure I'd buy it out of sheer curiousity. But I'm not, so I wouldn't even consider buying them.

I'll stick with the true Apple iPod.

If you're reallly stuck on the idea of buying a copy of an ipod then i suggest you buy inovix's ipocket, which isin't like the other fake cr*p you get on ebay.
It's price:130$

This mp3 player's brand(inovix)make tons of other mp3 players, which is kind of the proof that it isin't some junk made in a garage in taiwan.

Another point to make is in france it's the 5th most bought item in a big technology store!(just more proof it's nt junk).

Personally my money wouldn't go near MP3/MP4 Digital Player. I've never seen a knock off of any product come near the quality of the original. If you buy a knock off you'd better hope the warranty and the quality of the service department is as good as the original manufacturer too.


I don't even see a warranty for the MP3/MP4 Digital Player and the only contact information is a gmail address. To me that shows they don't believe in the quality of their product and could care less if it breaks on you.

Hi to all members,

Please Read my posting carefully before going to buy a iPod Clones over EBay & some other sites.

Actually I'm surfing for some other information related to iPod Clones & accidentally visited this forum & after reading this thread I throught to share my experience with iPod Clones.

I'll write a detailed information (alongwith some proof) within 3 days, Now I don't have a time to do that(please Xcuse me). For a time being, I'll fetch some Important & helpful info for you ppl.

1) These Clones will use a Memory chip from maker "hynix" or "samsung".

2) Most of the 256MB, 512MB or 1GB labelled clones are uses same chipset (majorly by "hynix") 128MB & hacked to other memory sizes.

3) buyer will think that he has bought 256MB, 512MB or 1GB player, But actually it got only 128MB memory chipset.

4) After uploading your favouret songs to it, Simply it will copy all songs (more than 128MB also) to player memory. When you play it, it will play songs successfully till 128MB & Player starts "RESTARTING" automatically.

5) When you tries to FORMAT it, it will format to its actual size (i.e.128MB) & finally your player's memory is revealed to 128MB.

6) Actualy this FRAUD starts from Manufactures (CHINA). Mainly the company named, Wilson Electronics, China.

Please Xcuse me for now, coz I got very important work to do in next 3 days (Very much busy).

I promise you that I'll write a detailed/transparent/Truth about these iPod clone players.

I request readers to wait for my next detailed information before buying any iPod Clones.

Actually I bought 2 ipod clones(One from ebay & another from local shop) & I got sucked like anything.

Last week I ordered for my 3rd player(this is also from china makers only but shape was different, i mean not a ipod clone) & i may get that within a day or two.

Thanks for reading my post.

I request all readers to distribute this information to other FORUMs also, so that everybody should know the reality about these "IPOD CLONE" players.

Byr 4 now.

Nashot.

i have a 20gig iPod and my gf has the 2gig NANO. as opposed to her iPod, my screen is not in color and at times i am jealous.

think about exactly what you intend or may intend on using your device for. are you going to use it to stream music to your headunit??? (i have a setup in my car) do you even have a car...or plan on getting one??? i say this because i use my iPOD almost everywhere (working out, car, work, school, home, yardwork), and i am extremely satisified with it. i wouldnt consider any alternative to date.

i think 'nashot's' post is something to read and think about. i understand "money" is different for everyone, but sometimes "cheaper isn't always better." if you have managed to live life w/o this luxory(if you will), i don't think it will kill you to wait a little longer.

But hey if you could get the ipod firmware on them and it realy was 1GB of memory. Then it would be worth the money.

So you guys don't think you could just update it with the ipod firmware?
