This week in fake devices: 4 different phones

And we keep covering the fake phones to help you avoid buying them. This week, we have 4 such handsets:

  • Another Blackberry (NSDQ: RIMM) ripoff – it’s actually called NOKLAH9000 Nokia (NYSE: NOK) E71, but that hasn’t stopped the company behind this clone to add a BlackBerry logo and make it “look Bold.”
  • Autobots mobile phone – Using a blockbuster movie to sell handsets (and other products for that matter) is not a new idea. And the same goes for doing so without paying the royalties.
  • New Vertu clone – yet another Vertu Ascent wannabe. Gold color actually makes this clone look expensive, but it’s really cheap.
  • Nokia N89 ripoff – NCKLA N89 is the real name of this device. Its back looks pretty much the same as the Nokia 6208C.

Again and again, I can’t emphasize this enough – don’t buy clone phones. You’ll regret it. Trust me…
