The actual hardware is different, it just looks the same. |

I definitely would not do this. I've bought several things off ebay (albeit not technology) that were shipped from/made in china and almost everything has had some problem or another...
Original is definitely better...

I pads that are really cheap, but with out the apple logo ( with a fake one)
What do you guys think?
Would you buy it?

What OS is it running on to mimic iOS that iPhones are running?
Screen type? Most likely resistive to save the cost, right?
Whats the hardware specs? CPU? RAM?
Does it supports Wind's AWS frequency?
Any pictures?

From everyone replies, you should do your best to list out these features first. It might changed some "No" to "Yes".
It is really hard to define "good quality" without these important information. |

I would honestly rather pay $750 for a legit iPhone 4, knowning it's quality and won't break the next day and have a warranty than buying a $150 knock off that will probably break the next day and the seller fleeing back to China and screwing me over.

nice I will see if they can make them like that
would you support me in trying to sell some of them at mcmaster
I know some one who gets huge amounts and has a store

It's illegal to sell such fake shit in mcmaster, you can't even sell stuff on campus unless u have a permit I am sure its against the law to be involved in any commercial activity unless u have a permit.

Use some common sense, obviously people are not going to support the idea of knock off products, because they encourage intellectual property theft, are inferior in quality/software and just bad devices overall. |
