iPhone 6 photo "leak" aims to fool even you

The iPhone 6 device, the box, even the cord (mostly) looks like it could have been made by Apple. Until you look closely. This is a Shenzhen iPhone 6 knockoff, one made by a group that makes cash off of two groups: those that are fooled themselves, and those that know what they're buying and aim to fool you.

The device cost the buyer – a friend of Reddit user Lawrence_Uber_Alles, a cool $145 USD. That's one hundred and fourth-five dollars for a fake iPhone running Android. Good by any standard, right?

He knew what he was buying, but today a series of photos of the device are making the rounds on major sites like TMZ – which we won't link to because it'll be 404 before too long – as a real-deal iPhone 6. "Apple iPhone 6, New Pics, Drool, Geeks" reads the headline, complete with images of the crudely created device.

According to Lawrence_Uber_Alles, this device runs Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) with an iPhone skin over the top. Specifications are as follows:

• 6.88-inch display with 960 x 540 pixel resolution

• ARMv7 Quad-core SoC clocked at 2.4Ghz with NEON graphics

• 2GB RAM

• Back-facing camera: 12.6-megapixels with LED flash

• Front-facing camera: 2.4-megapixels

• Accelerometer, proximity, ambient light, orientation (gyroscope) and magnetic field sensor

• 32GB internal storage
