Keepin’ it real fake, part CCXII: Nokia’s N86 cloned ahead of release

Posted in: kirf, nokia, smartphone, Today's Chili

It’s a sad state of things in the smartphone arena, folks. Nokia can’t even get its forthcoming N86 out of the door in official fashion before the cloning labs in China push out a suitable impostor. Of course, it’s not as if this hasn’t happened to Nokia before, but with such an anti-knockoff mentality, you think it’d take a little action to make the nightmare stop. Or maybe it secretly adores the attention — yeah, that has to be it.

[Thanks, Jason]
