Too bad the specs on this iPhone suck. It would have been cool if the company would have put out a kick ass iPhone you wouldn't be embarrassed to own. :D

Gradiente said on its website that it started selling its iPhone on Tuesday for 600 reals ($300). It runs the relatively old 2.3 version of Android and its features include a 3.7-inch touch-sensitive screen, Bluetooth, dual chip capability, 3G, Wi-Fi and camera. Its appearance is similar to that of Apple's iPhone.

Read the article...

Gradiente SA said in a statement that it filed its request to use the iPhone brand in 2000 when it realized "there would be a technological revolution in the world of cellphones with the convergence of voice and data transmission and reception via mobile Internet."

Every Brazilian kid ever:

"I have an iPhone!"

Every other Brazilian kid:

"No, you don't."
 
Just because they have the rights to the term "iPhone" in Brazil doesn't mean they have the right to make the phone look exactly like the older iPhones.
 
Specs? Thats ok, most Android buyers don't care about things like crappy GPU's anyway.

Apparently the name "iPhone" was taken by another company long ago, and Apple is still fighting them in court about it to this very day. Apple just ran with it and is willing to bet they'll out sue them out of the iPhone name.
 
Gradiente : We'll be selling our iPhone for six hundred reals.
DeAndre: For reals?
Gradiente : No, six hundred reals.
DeAndre: For reals though?
Gradiente : No, SIX HUNDRED reals!

LMAO I was thinking the same fucking thing.
 
R$600 is pretty cheap for a smart phone, but you get junk.
Brazilians are used to getting ripped off, so it all works out.
