A factory with over 41,000 units of fake iPhones are seized by Beijing police

Image
The Beijing Police have managed to track and shut down a factory that had produced more than 41,000 counterfeit units of iPhones. Some of the units produced by this factory even made its way to the United States. The fake iPhones amounted for as much as 120 million yuan ($19 million). The Beijing Police arrested nine people in relation to this case, including a married couple who were the head of the operation. The factory was run under a disguise of a gadget maintenance shop in the northern outskirts of Beijing.

In the first advert, HTC pits the One M9 against the Galaxy S6 in a race where users were required to open a series of apps, jump between them and click a selfie in between. The winner — obviously — was the One M9, though the users in the video thought that the winning phone was from Samsung or Apple. In the second test, some visitors at Bondi Beach were required to take low-light selfies from two different phones, both of which were concealed in cases. In this “blind test,” the One M9 won against the iPhone 6 thanks to the superior performance of its front-facing UltraPixel camera. The third blind test pitted the One M9’s BoomSound speaker against the single downward firing speaker on the iPhone 6. The ...
