Nokir 828 - Another Chinese Clone

SHARE:

While imitation might be the sincerest form of flattery, maybe all this is going just a bit too far. From the name to the design of the phone presented here, the Nokir E828 is a clone of the N73 and as expected, Nokia has nothing to do with producing this mobile phone.

At first sight, even if Nokir is written on the front of the handset, it can be easily interpreted as Nokia, since the font
used makes an "R" look incredibly similar to the "A".

Also, there's no doubt about the fact that it looks exactly like the Nokia N73 and there probably isn't any need to mention that the Nokir E828 comes from China.

The handset comes with a 2.6 inch touchscreen with a QVGA resolution, a 2 megapixel camera, Media player with support for MP3, MP4 and other file formats, Java games and a MicroSD card slot for memory expansion.

One thing that the phone should have included and doesn't is Bluetooth for connectivity. The N73 rip-off phone is also listed as featuring 3GP/MP4 full screen playback, voice recording, WAP, GPRS, Polyphonic on 64 channels ringtones with support for midi and MP3.

For the ones who are interested in getting a Chinese, touchscreen-equipped version of the Finish Nseries phone, apparently it is currently available through Hong Kong Gadget shop Brando with a price of $200, which is affordable enough to make you forget about the lack of Bluetooth.

Along with the phone, the user will get a Chinese manual, Spare battery, stereo handsfree and a 128MB Trans Flash memory card.
