Just this weekend we were discussing how much better a larger screened
iPhone 5 would be received, so imagine our
surprise when we came across this screened iPhone off running
Android OS!When we have a few hours spare we often head over to the local phone city which is an Aladdin's cave of smartphone rarities, bargains and unusual off devices.
This iPhone 5
knock off was spotted in between freshly imported HTC One
phones and the hundreds of
Samsung Galaxy Note's which have become popular here in
China.
In true
Shanzhai (
fake local good) style this
4.3 inch Android powered iPhone 5
knock off had some rather questionable styling and design choices such as the
Apple shaped
home button and the badly spelt iPhenc name.
According to the specifications this
fake new iPhone boasts a
4.3 inch touch
screen, Android
UI (which could mean a
fake Android
OS based on a JAVA OS), 2 mega-pixel rear
camera with LED flash, plus a front
camera.

Pricing for this
knock off iPhone 5 is 550
Yuan (less than $100) but I have a feeling you could get it much cheaper possibly around the 300 mark!
