Chinese iPhone Knockoffs Described With Hilarious Engrish

We all know how much companies in China love producing knockoffs of successful products, and ActFind is selling a bunch of the iPhone.

Whats interesting is that ActFind is simply using photos of the real iPhone to sell some of the fakes. The items names and descriptions give away they are fake: Especial function: Shake to elect song, ditheringge elect motif picture, reads the description for the $143 Shake to Control GSM Quad-band IP001 (pictured to the right). Shoot -- I wish I could elect a motif picture on my iPhone.

Gearlog came across the knock-off and dug up some other ones, too. The $116 Shaking Control Phone Unlocked Tri-band P168S (pictured to the left) looks interesting. It actually appears to be a more legit photo of the actual knockoff, with a silver case and a speaker on back. Comparing it to the real iPhone, youll notice the Home button contains a fatter square, the case is a bit thicker, and length-wise the phone looks a bit squashed. The description is the funniest part:

Select next previous song by shaking the phone 3.5 inch Touch Screen QVGA high clear LCD display screen and 1.3 Mega Pixel Digital Camera. Also, it has MP3 MP4 Player function. Besides, it supports dual SIM cards for calling as well as Unlocked SIM card. If you buy now, we will send you 256M Card Free of charge. Now go ahead!

Why, I think I will go right on ahead! Okily doo! Ill just punch my credit card number in your checkout section right after I post my social security number on the internet and get the words IM A FREAKING MORON tattooed on my chest.

I must admit that PhoneCard Stop have the best customer service. They know how to explain about their prepaid phonecards; unlike other prepaid phonecards sites. Their customer service personnels are so polite and helpful. I dare to say that they are the best international phonecards retailer!
