Porn Video Sneaks Into Nokia N8 Chinese Announcement Broadcast [Nokia]

On Wednesday, China introduced China to the N8 with a live-streaming video on several Chinese websites. To this point, par the course. However, ...

Pleco 2.2 Chinese Dictionary uses iPhone camera to translate text in real time (video)

Can't say we've heard of the Pleco Chinese Dictionary app earlier than today regardless that it's been around for two full version releases. Obviously, we've seen various Google Goggle-like smartphone apps which can snap pictures and then convert the image to text using optical character recognition (OCR) -- something that may be incredibly useful when ...

Adidas Sneaker Phone is the Most Awesome Chinese Knock-Off [Knock Offs]

We\'re so conditioned to retching whenever we see a knock-off, that I did a doubletake once I clapped eyes on this Adidas sneaker phone. Would like to know the good thing? It\'s a clamshell. Accordingly, that\'s cool. You\'ll see: I can\'t help but want one, even if it\'s been years since I last wore a pair ...

This New Cool Combat Jet Is Actually a Cheapo Chinese Copy [Aircrafts]

hThey copy computers, cellphones, cameras, video players, watches, bags, and everything man-made-but did you know that the Chinese also copy entire combat airplanes? It's simple: They buy one and measure every part and system to clone it. It's brutal reverse engineering but it works. In the past, they used to buy planes and designs from the ...

After all that fuss, RIAA doesn’t create Chinese Democracy anti-piracy PSA

Famous rock band Guns N’ Roses released their latest album, Chinese Democracy, in November, 2008. It had been in development for an astonishing 15 years. That’s partially why Kevin Cogill got into so much trouble. You’ll recall that he was caught uploading tracks from the then-unreleased album in June, 2008. While he managed to doge ...

Blazing UFO Causes Chinese Airport Closure [Ufo]

I'm not saying there were aliens flying whatever buzzed Hangzhou airspace earlier today. But there's no question that it was an object, that it was flying, and that it's as yet unidentified. And yet it looks awfully familiar up close: Alien spacecraft? Or an intergalactic iPhone 4 in a giant red bumper? After the UFO was detected ...

Mysterious Dell Mini 3v outted by Chinese mobile regulator, doesn’t know its OS

Fancy playing a game of " guess the phone?" Dell's got one for you -- the folks over at Chinese mobile regulator TENAA have once again prematurely outed another handset from said computer giant. As usual, there's no mention on the screen size, screen type or even the OS, but we're told that this ...

Apple’s Invasion of China Begins With This Shanghai Apple Store

There has been a lot of talk the last couple of days with Apple’s stance on the gigantic Chinese market. The Lenovo’s chief and founder stated “We are lucky that Steve Jobs has such a bad temper and doesn’t care about China. If Apple were to spend the same effort on the Chinese consumer as we do, we would be in trouble.” Well, good sir, your troubles might soon begin.

Apple plans on opening three stores in Shanghai and is considering more locations in other first and second-tier Chinese cities as well. The first Chinese Apple Store opened in 2008 in Sanlitun, Beijing but these new locations mark a strategy shift for Apple. In fact, The Oriental Morning Post stated this morning that Apple plans on having as many Chinese retail outlets as Louis Vuitton – that’s over two dozen.

Huawei’s Android 2.2 entry-level phone spied in China, coming in August

Froyo may already be out to the masses in one form or another, but it ain’t doing much good with just the one phone semi-officially supporting this Android release, while some other devices are only given a vague release window for the update. Luckily, it looks like Huawei’s taking a step further and may be pushing out a 2.2 device in August. According to Engadget Chinese’s tipster, this entry-level phone’s rocking a 2.8-inch QVGA capacitive touchscreen, 3.2 megapixel camera (possibly with dual-LED flash), and HSDPA 3G connectivity. Can’t say we’re all that stoked about the screen, but we’ll let our wallets do the talking in a month or two — assuming, of course, that August time frame applies to any region or carrier band we care about. One more pic after the break.
