    Notepods Are The Saddest iPhone Knock-Offs Ever

    Refreshed Nokla E81—With an L—Nokia Knockoff Packs Plenty of Swivel

    If Nokia had ever followed through on that rumored swiveling "E71-type handset" we heard about last April, it would probably have looked a lot like Nokla's E81 phone here. In fact, Nokla's betting a few people don't know the difference. More »

    Barock Obauma Loves His BlockBerry

    You know you've made it when a shady Chinese company uses your image without permission to sell a crappy knockoff of a phone nobody really liked all that much in the first place. [Cloned in China via Coolest Gadgets]

    Alleged PS3 Slim Spy Shots Inspire Hope, Doubt

    Dredged from the Far East of the blogosphere and spreading rapidly, these photos are said to be of a new, smaller version of the PS3. They're plentiful and clear, but could they be real? UPDATED More »

    The True Cost of a Chinese iPhone Knockoff

    Coverage of Chinese "shanzhai" knockoff phones tends to be dismissive at best, but the NYT, in a fit of earnestness, has done a full-on, iSuppli-style cost analysis of your typical iFauxne. Spoiler: They're extremely profitable! More »

    Wii Fit, Weight Fat: What's the Difference?

    Weight Fat—found in a Japanese crane machine—copies Wii Fit with its green, grey and white color scheme and fonts. There's a problem with this knock-off, though: it's not even a video game. More »

    iPhone Knock-Off on Demo; Makes Us Weep a Little

    We just had a hands on with this disastrous iPhone knock-off. The UI is like a pile of steaming poo, and the case is like...well, a pile of steaming poo. In general, we thought it was excrement-like—avoid like you would carcinogenic toxins if you were not a smoker. Stop smoking.

    Knockoff Console Promises 999,999,999 Games-In-One

    Who needs a Wii or Xbox 360 when you can have the "999,999,999 in 1 Super Game?" Just like today's crop of consoles, you get two controllers packed in. Unlike today's crop of consoles, you also get a light gun...and if the name is indicative, almost a billion games. I think this thing could really push gaming into new territory. Can you say next gen? [ChinaWholesaleGift]

    Wal-Mart Selling Wiimote Knockoff, Perfect for a Stepchild Stocking Stuffer

    Usually this kind of awesome is relegated to Chinatown shops, but this fake Wiimote produced by LA-based ToyQuest is available in that most red-blooded of American institutions, Wal-Mart. The $10 to $15 Wiimote-"inspired" toy actually features motion controls for the built-in game, but thanks to the tiny, cruddy screen you can't see anything when you're waving it around, making it impossible to play. But it does rattle when you shake it, making it the closest thing around to Wii Samba di Amigo maracas. [About]
