Fake LG Shine is the latest of the clones

by Patrick Altoft on April 23, 2007

Almost every one of the recent high end phones has been cloned by Chinese or Korean “entrepreneurs” over the last month.

We reported on the Nokia N95 clone and the iPhone clone and today we are able to publish the first pictures of the LG Shine clone that LG were so concerned about earlier this month.

We can understand why LG are taking a strong stance on this issue, the LG Shine clone costs just £45 and has a reasonable specification including 1.3 megapixel camera and all the same features as the real Shine. In addition the clone offers a microSD memory card, something that LG didn’t include in the original Shine.

It makes you wonder that if they can create half decent phones, and sell them at rock bottom prices – why don’t they just release their own mobile!

There’s an error there, the original Shine DOES have a Micro SD mem card slot.
