Apparently a Nokia N95 clone has been spotted in China looking very similar to, well, the Nokia N95.

they don't hang about do they? at first glance it does look like N95 but when placed together with a pic of the real thing it stands out a mile thats it fake. I suspect it doesn't even slide open as it has the keypad on the outside

"It was bound to happen, it was just a matter of time. About it being the first clone, I am not sure. It is the first one I have stumbled upon. I have no specs of the phone. It's probably like all the other copycat phones (Nokir 828 comes to mind). I can't see what is written on the box since the pics are not that good. What i can see though is that the phone is not a slider anymore but a candybar. It has that 'oh-so-popular' touchscreen (quite a big screen, 2.4 inch?) in those fake phones. I am guessing that black square above the screen is also a camera? If it has a front camera then maybe it's 3g? It also copies the silver/plum color combo. They also didn't bother changing the name (it remains a Nokia-N95). Hey, they did add a slash between the Nokia and N95. Well the usual specs for those copy phones are:
- Only dual band (no 3G)
- 1.3 or 2 mega pixel camera
- QCIF touchscreen (varies in size)
- Very strong ringtones
- Some special feature (in this case I have no idea what it is)

I actually think the phone doesnt look that bad. Looks like a mixture of N95 and N73 and with a touchscreen. Who knows...it might share some high specs with the N95...What is for sure is that there will definitely be more N95 copycats in the future and I still want an original Nokia N95."

this begs the question,y dont the chinese just make exact spec phones,with their low manufacturing costs they could still sell a clone with 5 meg cam etc for a quarter of the price of original one!and it's not a matter of tech because they can simply strip down an original one to make all the chips processors...they really can copy anything

Looks like soon china will start producing and shipping the clones of original products even before the original product is released to market.

i once got hold of a imate jamin lookalike which was Chinese. Handwriting recognition never worked, it never recognised what i wrote no matter how clearly i wrote. So touchscreen is basically a minus point for them.
