Keepin it real fake: Imouse MI-092 is one dull Razer ripoff

KIRFing isn't just for cellphones, friends. Anything with good design is at risk of being knocked off, and Razer sent word that it too has fallen victim. Meet the Imouse MI-092, a peripheral that couldn't look any longer like the Razer DeathAdder if it came in a DeathAdder box -- which it usually does, as ...

Keepin it real fake: Nokias Android N8

Can you think we\'ve waited on the N8 long enough for (no less than) three KIRF versions to overcome it to market? This latest one\'s pretty special too, as it gives us a glimpse into one of the vital fevered dream of Engadget commenters: a Nokia flagship rocking Android (2.1, as a result). The iZiNN ...

Keepin it real fake: EVO 4G Shanzai edition

Shameless isn\'t even the word for it. While some companies try and break out with calling themselves Nokla or BlockBerry, these Chinese KIRFers don't have any qualms about copying HTC\'s EVO 4G in its entirety (externally, anyhow). Yes, that comes with the Sprint insignia and the promise of 4G, both of which might be, ...

Keepin it real fake: because in China, even websites arent safe from knockoffs

Whenever you\'ve gone and built yourself an imitation MacBook Pro, a Magic Mouse-equipped pseudo-iMac, and an upcoming iPad-esque tablet, there\'s little reason left to be shy together with your website.

Keepin it real fake: TESO LPAD runs MeGoo or Andriod on Moorestown

Chinese company TESO has an unrequited love for all things Apple. Not that it cares, we\'re sure it\'s doing just fine on the grey market with its KIRFy Cupertino crafts. But maybe it\'s time for this Shenzhen cloner to move mainstream with what\'s supposed to be a 9.7-inch tablet running \" MeGoo\" (a MeeGo ...

Keepin it real fake: Sony Style L80 mini laptop cuts the VAIO Ps price down to size

The Sony VAIO P: it\'s a fantastic little, pocket-friendly machine that suffers from one glaring flaw: high price. Leave it to the boffins at Sony Style to come back up with a solution for that. No, not Sony\'s Sony Style retailer, but rather KIRF manufacturer Sony Style, which has crafted this 1.6GHz Atom-powered mini laptop ...

By Dan A.

We’ve already seen some pretty good iPhone 4 KIRFs, but it looks like there’s a new king in town: the Air Phone NO. 4. Not only does it faithfully emulate the iPhone 4′s hardware design with what we can only assume is the highest quality materials (it…

Keeping it real fake: Decca N88 borrows the timeless elegance of Sharp’s AQUOS line

By Dan A.

We don’t see a ton of Sharp cellphones ’round these parts, and fewer KIRF Sharps still. But we did get a kick out of the Decca N88 that popped up on M8 Cool recently. Featuring a 3-inch, 260k color display, dual SIMs, and support for all the usual med…
