While*Apple is
rumored to be aiming for March as the launch month for the
Apple Watch,*Chinese
Company Hyperdon was at CES selling
Fake versions of the new
Apple product called Smart Watch,
according to Mashable.
Fake Apple Watch k**wn as the Hyperdon Smart Watch. Image via MashableThe watch's screen only displays when it's turned on, and many of its icons are blatant ripoffs of Apple designs. The pairing process took a few tries, but once connected to my iPhone 6, I was able to make phone calls and play music through the watch. It even vibrates when I get a call.
Mashable was able to purchase the watch for $27. It comes with a pedometer, stopwatch, alarm and a feature referred to as "Anti lost", which
Mashable estimated could be used to alert a user to when the watch is out of Bluetooth range.
The Smart Watch also has **tifications from WeChat and other apps, but it requires downloading a "sketchy-looking APK" that appears to only work with jailbroken iPhones. It charges via USB cable and
Hyperdon claims it can last for "up to 180 hours".
Mashable was **t able to test this claim.*Hyperdon says it sells its products in retail stores in the U.S. and China, but did **t detail where its locations are.
Apple has continually suffered from counterfeit
Apple products in China, with authorities breaking up
counterfeit iPhone rings and shutting down
fake Apple Stores.
