This week in fake devices: 4 brands, 4 clones

Filed under: Clone/rip, Devices — Dusan Belic @ 3:44 AM

And we’re continuing with our “This week in fake devices” series. Today we’re mixing it all together by presenting you four brands and four clones. Let’s get rolling:

  • Samsung Pixon – what’s notable about this “version” is the optical zoom on the camera, though I doubt it makes better images when compared to the original device.
  • LG KM900 Arena – unlike the original Arena which prides itself with WVGA touchscreen, this clone comes with a standard QVGA display and is much thicker.
  • Sony Ericsson Idou – don’t count on the Symbian Foundation platform with the fake device. Also forget about 12 megapixel camera and other goodies Idou aka Satio packs.
  • Vertu K73 – I’m not sure whether this is a clone at all, since there’s no K73 model made by Nokia’s luxury arm. Still, because it “borrows” the Vertu branding, we can’t consider it as a real contender.

Each of the devices presented boast Bluetooth support, microSD slot, some are even dual SIM-enabled, and all of them come with a warranty that is as good as Bear Sterns stock options…
