If you've not already been blown away by the Chinese iPhone clones, you will be once you see them. They have not only brilliantly copied the iPhone's innovative features, they have drastically improved them with their own upgrades. Simply put, the clones are better than the iPhone and the CECT 599 is no exception.

CECT, the manufacturer of the 599, had several opportunities for improvement and it seized every single one by:

1. making the CECT 599 dual sim. You now have the capability to have two mobile phone numbers without ever need to turn off the phone;

2. having the phone be unlocked so that you aren't forced to use AT&T if you don't feel like it;

3. adding a removable battery so you aren't chained to the manufacturer when the battery dies;

4. adding additional speakers and surround sound (the sound system on this phone rocks); and

5. I've saved the best for last. This phone has shake technology. If you want to advance the media (songs, video, wallpaper, photos, etc), you just simply shake the phone. You never even have to look at the phone. You just shake until the media is where you want it to be.

The CECT 599 has all of the features you probably love about the iPhone. You can surf the web, take and play video, play MP3s, and take photos. (It has a really nice camera phone). It also has Bluetooth, a 3.2 inch, high resolution screen and of course, the touch screen everyone is looking for.

The 599 is pretty cheap at between $100 and $130, a steal considering it's built in, highly innovative features.
