I was planning on making a nice review of this phone but turns out I don't have much time as I originally thought. I'm going to give you guys a short run down on this phone and hopefully deter anyone out there that was maybe thinking of buying a fake. I know sometimes the prices are too good to be true and it looks like the real thing but trust me,you will give yourself nothing but a headache later on. 2-3 hundred dollars is a lot of money to spend on something you are going to hate later on

Everywhere I go people always ask me "WHAT PHONE IS THAT!" The phone visually is a eye catcher no doubt. I just tell them its a Nokia and let them molest it a little,because I don't even think a black sapphire exist does it ? How am I supposed to explain to them that this is a 1,000 dollar worth of phone,except for when its not.







As you can see that's real black leather accents on the front and back.



Fake stickers with fake imei numbers.





I find myself just fondling this back plate through out the day lol the leather feels pretty nice







All though the phone looks nice,I feel that the good does not out weight the bad. The user interface is full of spelling errors and weird options that tend to not exist.







Yea lets turn on the Navigation icons



Now I have my calculator set up for the top,but as you can see it shows you a camera,no matter how I set up my apps it will always show the same icons no matter what.

Time for active stand by



Hello Mr. calculator icon




Heres what the user profiles look like,you can customize each just like you would on any regular nokia



You can add up to 5 personal ring tones,but the ring tones that are their are just boring and i wish i could erase them all !



The phone comes with 5 themes which are just background wall papers



and even the names are mixed up



I went with canopy



The sensitivity control is just a joke,I found myself shaking the phone like crazy for the digital clock to appear and then it goes away after 2 seconds !



High spelled sooo wrong



the backgrounds will change if you have the motion sensor on so I usally just turn it off. There is one bg sooooo stupid that I had to turn it off. Its a gif of cartoon ballarina/ballroom type dancing going on :/

Thats about all the time right now i have,I will be taking request for what part of the phone you want to see next and ill post it and tell you how good and or bad it works !. I will have it for a little while longer untill I get rid of it.

Depending on how this goes,Ill try an get my hands on a carbon arte and see how well that one works. I know there must be tons of differences depending on where or who you get these phones from,but this is definitely something to expect from any fake you buy.

sir sorry for mistitle i m going to ask. i want to know definition of at & t mobile plz define it with example i m waiting ............

Lol very good post, funny also. My friend bought a fake one and he hated it.

I'd rather buy a real 8801 for that price and have money left over. How is the camera quality?

so on the real arte its meant to be an 3.2mp , but most fakes are 1.3.

I have seen some fakes that have 3.2mp as well. So there are different arte fakes out there lol

higher quality fakes huh? well that's new :P

How is the RF? I'm assuming it's terrible.

all these fakes crack me up. they all have a very similar interface once you get past the "look-a-like" initial screens. the last one i messed with was a fake iphone and it had so many spelling errors
