From the info i found so far it seems that it would cost only around 109$...from the clips it seems to be smart enough for an itouch clone...anyway its close to 200$ cheaper then the apple one

P.S.: A clip about the device

If you are tempted by the price gap @Archaeopteryx mentioned, do a quick reality check before you buy. Many iPod touch look-alikes from no-name brands are actually basic GSM phones in disguise, which matches what spotted. Rebrands are common, so the same shell can ship with wildly different guts and firmware.

A few quick ways to vet it from photos or a short video:

  • Look for signal bars, a dialer icon, or a SIM slot label. That means it is a phone, not just a media player.
  • Ask for the exact model number and a shot of Settings > About. If the seller will not provide it, walk away.
  • Confirm screen resolution. If it is 320x240 or similar, text and video will look coarse compared to name-brand devices.
  • Check the touchscreen type. Many clones use resistive panels; they need a firm press and usually do not support multitouch gestures.
  • Verify storage. Is it real internal flash or just microSD? If microSD-only, budget for a good card.
  • Look at formats. Some clones only play AMV/MTV video and require converting every file. That is a headache for gifts.

Expectations matter too. Clones often have sluggish UIs, limited Wi‑Fi (or none, despite the spec sheet), no app ecosystem, and weak firmware support. If you do buy, test it immediately: verify capacity with a tool like H2testw, play a few full songs and a converted video, try the headphone jack with decent earbuds, and check battery life against the claim. Also confirm a clear return policy and warranty. One last tip: ask the seller for a short, continuous video showing the About screen, a web page load over Wi‑Fi, and pinch‑to‑zoom. It is the fastest way to separate a slick mock-up from a usable device.
