Live at CTIA: Haier's knockoff heaven
We're sure the majority of these devices are tri-band Asian phones, but in the last year Chinese manufacturer Haier has returned triumphantly to CTIA with a veritable cadre of sweet knocks on namebrand cellphones. Take the above W800 rip, the M260, which features 2 megapixel camera, 262k color touch screen, and MiniSD slot. See, sometimes fake can be better than real. Click on for the rest.
Look familiar? Samsung's Z130 as the A600 features a 2.2-inch 262k color touch scren, MicroSD, 2 megapixel camera, and push email.
Samsung's A940 as the N60 with a 2.2-inch touchscreen, Linux, and 1.3 megapixel camera.
The M230 rocks a 2 megapixel camera and MiniSD slot.
The Z3 is a little reminiscent of the Nokia 7200-series, no?
The A63 has a 2 megapixel camera, MiniSD slot, and 2-inch 262k color touchscreen.
Wow, the A7 is basically a PEBL / Nokia 7380 mashup.
The C800, yet another touchscreen with a 2 megapixel camera.
Hm, that C101 kind of reminds us of the HTC Tornado. Just a little.
And, finally, the D1200 is about as low-end as you can get with a 128 x 160 CSTN display. See you this fall, Haier!
