Now, these may have been around for ages, we can’t really be sure because, truth be told, it’s pretty rare for us to troll the aisles of Kohl’s makeup section looking for KIRF s. Regardless, a helpful, hawk-eyed reader snapped this shot of an eyeshadow palette — called eyemobile — that’s got…

Mama always said that some folks just never learn , and we reckon there’s plenty of wisdom to be had from that very statement. Year after year , German police are called in to raid select booths at CeBIT ( and IFA , to be fair), and yet again we’ve seen a booth cleared out…

Coveting a beautiful new netbook but can’t quite manage the $399 for a new HP Mini 5101/5102 ? Maybe this knock-off would fit your budget, looking more or less indistinguishable from the real thing. The ports have a slightly different layout (with some of them looking a wee bit askew) and …

No matter how realistic a KIRF phone looks these days, there’s always a catch somewhere. For instance, this GSM handset is pretty much an exact clone of the HTC Tattoo , except for a couple of debatably important things: the suspiciously-cheerful $169 price tag, and the fact that Windows Mobile …

General Mobile — maker of the DSTL1 dual-SIM Android phone — has always walked a fine line between KIRF and originality with its phone, and its latest batch is no different. Normally it’s easy to resist a device widely regarded as a knockoff (for most of us, anyhow), but in the case of…

Oh, Meizu , how do we love thee? Let us count the ways. The KIRF -rooted company has released a promo touting the UI for its M8 phone. If any of it seems familiar, just remember that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Honestly, we’re a bit surprised just how professional the video feels, and…

Engadget’s iconic and recognizable logo has a long history of being used in unauthorized ways . We should probably be appalled or something, but we’ll leave that to the lawyers — because we can’t help but find it amusing . This time around, it’s Batteries n’Gadgets — a store at a mall in Toronto — that saw…

Having trouble getting your hands on that Nokia E72 ? Perhaps you favor a handset with a TV tuner? Zoho’s KIRF E72 features the aforementioned tuner, dual sim, QWERTY keypad, WiFi, JAVA, FM tuner, and both rear and front-facing 1.3MP cameras. Rest assured, the UI looks nothing like what you’d get…

An Android and iPhone hybrid isn’t exactly new (hello, OPhone ), but at least we can say this has a trackball. In fact, you might even mistaken this for iPhone OS at first glance, it’s just that kind of doppelganger. The fine details, you say? The GSM (EDGE only, no 3G) device sports…

You know how we love a good knockoff at Engadget. Well, the PXP 2000 isn’t the greatest KIRF we’ve ever seen — especially considering that it’s a “PSP Go” that plays NES games (and pretty badly at that). It is, however, one of the most caring and detailed unboxings we’ve seen in a really long…
