all right now you might have seen these floating around these are busy those kind of knockoff clone versions of the upcoming iPhone they always seem to hit the market prior to an iPhone launch there's something weird in this particular case though because I have some information that these particular clones of what we'll probably call be called the iPhone 11 or XII or something like that might not be the eventual design in fact it could be a fairly substantial difference between this clone representation of the next iPhone which yes it's here it's working it's in boxes like it even showed up with fake Apple store I don't know actually maybe the bags are not fake maybe they went to a real Apple store a snag but I don't really why don't we just look at it you decide and then we'll talk about the design changes here they look a lot like the previous generation boxes obviously you have a iPhone on the side the artwork is the same from the previous generation if you're skeptical and you're looking at this you you maybe your spidey sense may go off a little bit like like something like if you look at the top edge here is this completely straight this line here is this a bit closer over here I don't know designed by Apple in California okay are you buying it well there's no plastic on the actual phone fake paperwork fake Apple stickers man it's unbelievable and they get these things out before the actual device launches wild this is the device and like I said you may have seen this floating around now the implementation here of the rear camera setup this is something that's been rumored we've seen a lot of it but it's actually the way it's implemented that is up for dispute so on this particular device you see this Ridge around it you see this very boxy look it doesn't blend all that well with the glass back on the device itself actually I don't mind this color at all maybe a little bit lighter actually this by the way is an iPhone tennis max I would say then I need to switch hands let's see yeah yeah definitely the clone is a bit lighter you know what if you really look at this font you can also spot the fakeness look at how much sharper this font is it's sharper and it's thinner it's just it's just not the same phone you have headphones included even get an adapter in their fake lightning cable and the power brick oh this is the white one okay so this white one actually gives you a much better representation of the scale of this potential camera cutout and then last up we have gold color of course one plus calling that almond I know that this particular design for a lot of people it's it's gonna be a polarizing type of thing because it is such a ubiquitous device and so many people have it once the thing releases and everybody sees whatever the new implementation happens to be it's a very short path to that becoming familiar and therefore people becoming comfortable with it I don't think it's gonna end up looking quite like this in fact I think it's gonna look substantially different but anyhow let's go ahead and boot this up and see how it operates now the way these things are built is that they're basically running Android in many cases or some version of it within this like Apple asks skin you know this chin is way too large on the clone model over here also the display much more dim no OLED action by the looks of it so this is what the chin is supposed to look like this is what it looks like over here when you have this switch push down there's no red indicator to let you know that it's been activated you know what oh you do a good job of faking it again you can tell the fonts are off here you could be maybe fooled know somebody just handed to you you're not fooled someone has to go in and really modify some version of Android and that's not so easy to do so there has to be some sort of a market for this it must be a significant market because it wouldn't be worth the investment otherwise each one of these costs around 200 bucks something in that territory so I can tell you straight away this is a low resolution display I can see pixels from this range which is very unusual I mean it's night and day as far as I'm concerned very soft looking image there at 1x let's not that you slow shutter and then another soft looking image at 2x and that's it that seems to be the only options there it's not a good picture jack it's a lot of noise in the image you can see beard hairs but like if you just look it looks like a painting some of my is I mean the resolution is obviously not substantial now what happens if you go into portrait mode it says move farther away still wants me to move farther how far away you want me to be I mean it's looking for a face does it even know the difference just tell me move farther away how far away it still says no fiber no portrait mode at play okay so lots of ways to figure out that this thing is bogus I mean the last one I want to try out is sound there we go all right Apple shrinking the knotch who the buttons are also a little loose oof it's so slow it's painfully slow on Wi-Fi the video quality severe auto crunch down for like 144 foods and the audio is crunchings look I don't recommend that you buy this thing all right I'm trying to to figure out how or why these things exist it's got to be a novelty factor for some it definitely is for us for me and also for you watching this it looks close to what you could imagine the next iPhone the iPhone 11 looking like you know there are some other perspectives out there on what this might look like and in fact I have one of those other perspectives on the way in the form of a CNC model so I'll showcase that compare it to this in an upcoming video I don't think that this is what the next iPhone is going to look like it's sort of in the right territory but I don't think it's gonna be this ugly maybe that's it Jack maybe you buy it maybe it has a limited lifespan you buy it now to goof on your friends you you use this you stick your SIM card in here you use it for the next few months prior to the iPhone announcement and you get tons of attention and people think you're cool because it's truly an iPhone or at least it looks like an iPhone that nobody has
