What happens when rip-off artists run out of ideas – an ugly mish-mash flip/candybar phone

This just might be the worst phone we’ve ever seen. Not just in terms of design and form-factor, but also in terms of nonsensically ripping off trademarks. Of course it’s from China, but that’s not the point. This thing might be the result of knock-off artists having run out of ideas (well, things to copy, really).
We can’t be the only ones offended by this phone? As the pictures show, this thing is both a flip-phone and a candybar, but the execution of the design is piss-poor. It’s like these guys just fused two phones together, and it’s got the girth to back that up – we’re going to call this design a brick-phone.
And, as if the designers of this phone hadn’t screwed up badly enough, they covered it in faux gold and fake diamonds – straight tacky. Then there’s the RAZR-esque keypad, but then again, everyone’s taken design cues from the RAZR’s keypad. Oh, and don’t forget the dual branding – apparently this thing is used on both 3 and T-mobile (NYSE: DT)’s networks.
Who cares about the specs, they don’t matter. Just hit the link for more pics of this monstrosity.
