1
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:13,360
Apple products have long been seen as being more than they are this isn't just

2
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:16,840
a phone and this isn't just a

3
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:18,439
laptop they're status symbols and

4
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:22,960
wherever there's a status symbol there's a knockoff I'm sure

5
00:00:21,199 --> 00:00:27,840
you've seen them online much cheaper than an iPhone thinking maybe it's just

6
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:34,800
as good well that would require buying one and so we did clearly there's

7
00:00:30,519 --> 00:00:36,120
something to this it's frankly iconic

8
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:41,280
but at some point you're going to have to use this thing and that's real

9
00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:51,039
pay whoa here it is so this box looks an

10
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:56,800
awful lot like the iPhone box okay on the back we have a high digital camera

11
00:00:54,320 --> 00:01:01,440
face recognition this is definitely not

12
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:06,080
packaged as nicely as an Apple device Apple famously doesn't use any plastic

13
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:12,240
in their packaging whereas this uses a

14
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,439
lot whoa a headphone jack Apple would

15
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:20,880
never include that whoo a screen protector that's amazing Apple would

16
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:23,119
never include that wa USBC Apple only

17
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:28,040
just included that and then we have a three camera bump just like the iPhone

18
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:32,920
wow it is uncanny how terrible this looks

19
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:37,880
wao it runs Android keep the moving pieces is open the camera switch to

20
00:01:35,399 --> 00:01:43,479
video mode we make moving pieces here that's what Mac Address is most known

21
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:45,640
for this is the slowest phone I've ever

22
00:01:43,479 --> 00:01:52,520
used while this is loading you might notice that there is a notch Dynamic

23
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,560
Island it's literally just a blank black

24
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:58,640
thing printed onto the glass why would you do that this speaker's

25
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:05,360
horrible that's it let's open up the camera now

26
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:09,240
there's three lenses on here unfortunately system UI has

27
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:17,200
stopped this is infuriating okay let's try Force

28
00:02:14,519 --> 00:02:22,120
shutting this off you know this reminds me of how slow that iMac we bought that

29
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:28,200
refurbished iMac with an a spinning internal drive so we were trying to

30
00:02:25,239 --> 00:02:32,120
figure out the camera that's what we were trying to do then it takes so long

31
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:38,159
to load things in this you literally forget what you're doing this is very

32
00:02:33,959 --> 00:02:43,720
strange the selfie camera looks kind of

33
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:43,720
good there's no Zoom there's no this

34
00:02:45,959 --> 00:02:50,720
I the cameras are fake let's go to the

35
00:02:48,959 --> 00:02:55,480
Apple website oh there we go you know when a

36
00:02:53,400 --> 00:03:02,480
device is this slow you kind of start second guessing yourself did I really

37
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:02,480
click on the internet browser oh it's

38
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:14,040
loading the browser isn't responding do you want to close it wait okay I wanted

39
00:03:12,319 --> 00:03:20,879
to look at this website this phone's terrible I've never

40
00:03:16,879 --> 00:03:23,239
use it but you have to use it no no I

41
00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:28,920
did have to use the thing and boy do we find secret lurking underneath unlike a

42
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:31,480
real iPhone correct well despite Apple's

43
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:36,439
best efforts to lock down iOS it's still vulnerable to spyware have you heard of

44
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:40,840
Pegasus wor still it's notoriously difficult to spot because of Apple's

45
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:44,080
sandbox restrictions Certo anti-spyware

46
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,439
however can perform a full deep scan of

47
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:49,760
your iPhone by plugging it into your computer and using their desktop app

48
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:53,720
after a few minutes any threats detected can be removed with a simple tap of the

49
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:58,879
button and now you can stay protected with CTO for even less click the link

50
00:03:56,159 --> 00:04:01,959
below and get 20% off today from the product page it looks looks like they've

51
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:06,280
upgraded the iPhone since we've bought it but even our old model advertised

52
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:12,000
specs that meet or exceed what you'll find on the real iPhone 14 pro 1 TB of

53
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:21,079
internal storage dual SIM card support a 6.7 in 1440p AMOLED display 16 GB of RAM

54
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:24,199
and a very strong 6800 milliamp hours

55
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:25,639
battery these aren't specs to scoff at

56
00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:31,600
and on paper make it seem like it's worth far more than the $300 asking

57
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:34,240
price and yet the longer you use this

58
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:38,280
phone the more you hate it I put a SIM card in here intending to use it as an

59
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:41,639
actual phone for a bit that plan was quickly dashed though when it kept

60
00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:46,680
telling me there was no SIM card inserted did I put them in backwards or

61
00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:51,919
would detect the SIM card and then tell me I have no service no service no

62
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:55,400
service and it frequently switches between these states without any Rhyme

63
00:04:53,960 --> 00:05:00,199
or Reason this is something that persisted across both slots making it

64
00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:04,759
entirely useless as an actual phone but hey it's still got Wi-Fi which would be

65
00:05:02,759 --> 00:05:10,320
great if that worked reliably unlike the SIM card I could get

66
00:05:07,919 --> 00:05:15,720
this to connect to Wi-Fi it took about a dozen attempts across several networks

67
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:17,520
but it did eventually work however even

68
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:21,440
if the shockingly unresponsive home screen decided to cooperate and launch

69
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:26,280
an app it would often show a connection error or load indefinitely assuming the

70
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:31,639
phone hadn't disconnected from the Wi-Fi of its own volition by this point you

71
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:35,319
using this thing is a test of patience for example I have not been able to

72
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:40,840
download any apps onto the phone because the Play Store rarely loads and even

73
00:05:38,199 --> 00:05:45,080
when it does it becomes so unresponsive it's basically useless and good luck

74
00:05:43,479 --> 00:05:48,639
force closing an app to try and get things moving again since the navigation

75
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:53,600
bar at the bottom often disappears without reason even if you can get to

76
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,639
the ad manager it too will often freeze

77
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:59,800
the web browser works surprisingly well compared to everything else on here

78
00:05:57,479 --> 00:06:03,919
though it's far from an ideal experience with janky scrolling and web pages

79
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:08,120
awkwardly scaling the other thing I noticed on

80
00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:13,919
here is that the browser the notification shade even the settings

81
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:16,880
page look kind of old in fact I'd swear

82
00:06:13,919 --> 00:06:22,560
this looks like Android 7 which is peculiar because this device claims that

83
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,560
it's running Android 12 since I clearly

84
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:29,199
can't trust any of the claim specs I set out to test them so for example I wanted

85
00:06:26,759 --> 00:06:34,240
to test the 1 tbte storage by copying a bunch of videos onto the

86
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:36,039
drive this is going to take forever I

87
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:40,759
can't believe this Cable's working it's it's a big surprise cuz we've all month

88
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,720
haven't been able to get any cables to work no matter what cable and power

89
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:50,639
source we used it wouldn't charge or show up as a connected device the only

90
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:57,199
way we could even charge it was through a USB current

91
00:06:57,199 --> 00:07:03,240
tester what we also couldn't download

92
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:07,800
any music or videos since we can't download any apps we even resorted to

93
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:12,520
Bluetooth File Transfer which also failed and would have taken forever and

94
00:07:10,759 --> 00:07:17,319
did you catch when I said it doesn't charge it doesn't charge using this

95
00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:19,080
charge port but don't worry because the

96
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:24,000
iPhone 14 pro does come with wireless charging through mag

97
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:28,599
safe I guess that means if I want to test the battery capacity I'm going to

98
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:33,759
have to do it by tearing it down let's see what Mr we can uncover are you able

99
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:38,360
to tell me what is exactly in here of course I can let's do it what we're

100
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:42,400
going to get is an ADB device connection so that way we can talk to the system

101
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:48,199
without listening to all the lies that it's telling us on the there's a lot

102
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,280
this is Android 6 ah here we go Hardware

103
00:07:48,199 --> 00:07:57,639
SP 7731 GAA that is a spread Tri a what CPU so

104
00:07:55,599 --> 00:08:03,720
spread Trum is a Chinese s so men manufacturer so it's a

105
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:07,520
quad core 1.2 GHz spread from s so yeah how many cores do you say this

106
00:08:06,199 --> 00:08:14,879
was supposed to have I think it was was like 8 core o LCD density is not looking

107
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:18,360
good 240 that seems accurate actually

108
00:08:14,879 --> 00:08:21,680
well the display is only 480 X

109
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:24,759
1014 what yep it said it was more than

110
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:28,720
that I'm sure it did that's not 1080p

111
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:30,280
it's not hey Brandon what's up does this

112
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:36,440
have an OLED screen um no you could see the blacks

113
00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:41,080
from the screen versus the phone not nearly as dark so I was lied

114
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:47,959
to uh sure okay how much RAM 1 gab what of RAM

115
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:54,040
it has 1 gig of RAM but it said it had eight and the phone if you look it says

116
00:08:51,279 --> 00:09:01,200
it has 16 you can see down at the bottom the VM allocation total is saying 16 but

117
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,200
it actually only has one

118
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:08,600
so what's going on with the other 15 it doesn't exist this phone has been

119
00:09:06,279 --> 00:09:15,279
so slow it's because it's trying to fill up memory it doesn't have so what about

120
00:09:10,839 --> 00:09:17,920
the storage it's 16 GB total so

121
00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:22,720
essentially it has the amount of storage that it claims it has in RAM correct

122
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:28,680
it's full of lies so I think the last thing we need to find out is the battery

123
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:37,040
cuz it says it has like a over 6,000 mAh battery how can we do that we take it

124
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,040
apart let's get it all nice and

125
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:43,920
toasty there is not much in this phone

126
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:47,839
it doesn't even fill the space they've got a very large gap around the battery

127
00:09:45,839 --> 00:09:51,320
maybe that's just in case it swells up despite our best efforts we are

128
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:55,040
completely unable to unearth the truth about the battery's capacity even when

129
00:09:53,399 --> 00:09:59,320
inputting the battery model number in Google we got zero results so we

130
00:09:58,519 --> 00:10:04,839
actually don't know how about the battery is no safe to say this thing

131
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:11,640
disappointed in pretty much every way imaginable but the most shocking part is

132
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,640
how much this costs it's what it's

133
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:19,160
$300 at that price it costs far more than many budget Android phones from the

134
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:24,760
likes of Samsung and Nokia and frankly while it may look like an iPhone at a

135
00:10:21,839 --> 00:10:31,959
distance I mean you could get a used real iPhone from a few years ago for

136
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,959
similar money and that'll be way

137
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:39,959
better this thing is in every single way

138
00:10:37,079 --> 00:10:45,600
a scam it is the worst knockoff product I've ever seen used or could even

139
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:48,000
imagine and literally burning $300 would

140
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:52,160
be more useful than buying this probably better for the environment

141
00:10:49,519 --> 00:10:55,920
too thanks for faking this Mac Address if you've owned any knockoff products

142
00:10:53,839 --> 00:10:58,760
yourself give this video a like and if you want to learn more about real

143
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:06,839
products then you might as well subscribe I'm curious in the comments below what knockoff products that look

144
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:11,600
like Apple devices you've bought and how that experience was was as bad as this

145
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,839
this is even worse than I could have ever imagined
