iPhone 11 Clone Unboxing

Alright, now you might have seen these floating around

These are, uh, these are those kind of knockoff clone versions of the upcoming iPhone

They always seem to hit the market prior to an iPhone launch. There's something weird in this particular case, though

because I have some information that these particular clones of what will probably be called the iPhone 11 or XI or something like that

might not be the eventual design. In fact, it could be a fairly substantial difference between this clone representation of the next iPhone

which yes, it's here, it's working, it's in boxes, it even showed up with fake Apple store

I don't know actually, maybe the bags are not fake, maybe we went to a real Apple store to snag the..

I don't really... why don't we just look at it, you decide, and then we'll talk about the design changes here

They look a lot like the previous generation boxes. Obviously, you have an iPhone on the side, the artwork is the same from the previous generation

If you're skeptical and you're looking at this, you may be... Your spidey sense may go off a little bit

Like something like... If you look at the top edge here, is this completely straight

This line here? Or is this a bit closer over here? I don't know. Designed by Apple in California

Okay, are you buying it? Well, there's no plastic on the actual phone. Fake paperwork, fake Apple stickers, man

It's unbelievable. And they get these things out before the actual device launches

It's wild. This is the device, and like I said, you may have seen this floating around

Now the implementation here of the rear camera setup, this is something that's been rumored, we've seen a lot of it

but it actually the way it implemented that is up for dispute So on this particular device you see this ridge around it You see this very boxy look It doesn blend all that well with the glass back on the device itself

Actually, I don't mind this color at all. Maybe a little bit lighter, actually

This, by the way, is an iPhone XS Max. I would say then... Maybe I need to switch handles. Let's see here

Yeah, definitely the clone is a bit lighter. You know what? If you really look at this font, you can also spot the fakeness

Look at how much sharper this font is. It's sharper and it's thinner

It's just not the same font. You have headphones included. You even get an adapter in there

Fake lightning cable and the power brick. Let's see this one. Oh, this is the white one

Okay, so this white one actually gives you a much better representation of the scale of this potential camera cutout

And then last up, we have gold color. Of course, OnePlus calling that almond

Now I know that this particular design for a lot of people, it's going to be a polarizing type of thing

Because it is such a ubiquitous device and so many people have it, once the thing releases and everybody sees whatever the new implementation happens to be

it's a very short path to that becoming familiar and therefore people becoming comfortable with it

I don't think it's going to end up looking quite like this. In fact, I think it's going to look substantially different

But anyhow, let's go ahead and boot this up and see how it operates. Now the way these things are built is that they're basically running Android in many cases, or some version of it, with then this like, Apple-esque skin

You know this chin is way too large on the clone model over here Also the display much more dim no OLED action by the looks of it So this is what the chin is supposed to look like This is what it looks like over here When you have this switch pushed down there no red indicator to let you know that it been activated You know what though They do a good job of faking it Again you can tell the fonts are off here You could be maybe fooled no Somebody just handed that to you You not fooled

Someone has to go in there and really modify some version of Android, and that's not so easy to do

So there has to be some sort of a market for this. It must be a significant market because it wouldn't be worth the investment otherwise

Each one of these costs around $200, something in that territory. So I can tell you straight away, this is a low-resolution display

I can see pixels from this range, which is very unusual. I mean, it's night and day, as far as I'm concerned

very soft looking image there at 1x let's snap that oh slow shutter and then another soft looking image at 2x and that's it that seems to be the

only options there it's not a good picture jack it's uh a lot of noise in the image you can see

beard hairs but like if you just look it looks like a painting some of some of my is i mean the

resolution is obviously not substantial now what happens if you go into portrait mode it says

move farther away. Still wants me to move farther away? How far away you want me to be

It's looking for a face. Does it even know the difference? You just tell me move farther away

How far away It still says move farther away Jack No portrait mode at play Okay So lots of ways to figure out that this thing is bogus i mean the last one i want to try out is sound there we go all right apple shrinking the notch

oh the buttons are also a little uh loose oof it's so slow it's painfully slow on wi-fi

the video quality is being auto crunched down to like 144p and the audio is crunching

Look, I don't recommend that you buy this thing, alright? I'm trying to figure out how or why these things exist

It's got to be a novelty factor for some. It definitely is for us, for me, and also for you watching this

It looks close to what you could imagine the next iPhone, the iPhone 11, looking like

You know there are some other perspectives out there on what this might look like

And in fact, I have one of those other perspectives on the way in the form of a CNC model

So I'll showcase that, compare it to this in an upcoming video. I don't think that this is what the next iPhone is going to look like

It's sort of in the right territory, but I don't think it's going to be this ugly

Maybe that's it, Jack. Maybe you buy it. Maybe it has a limited lifespan

You buy it now to goof on your friends. You use this

You stick your SIM card in here. You use it for the next few months prior to the iPhone announcement, and you get tons of attention and people think you're cool because it's truly an iPhone, or at least it looks like an iPhone that nobody has
