Shenzhen-based Hyperdon was selling fake Apple Watches for $27 at CES. The Chinese company's knockoff Apple Watch is actually called "smart watch," but at first glance, it looks exactly like Apple's upcoming product.

The 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.

The Smart Watch also feature a pedometer, stopwatch, alarm, and a feature called "Anti-lost,"
which most likely warns the user when they are out of range. The watch charges through USB, and according to a company representative, the battery life is more than 180 hours.

Hyperdon says the Smart Watch sells its products at retail store in the U.S. and China, but would not elaborate on locations or types of stores.

Well that's it!!!!! No more going to eat in Chinese restaurants, don't want a booger in my gu gu guy pan In response to post below mine

If there is a Chinese person reading this can you tell me why many Chinese pick their noses in full view of other people. They may be in a conversation face to face and one of them has a finger deep in nose trying to scratch out a booger. And when they do get a booger on the tip of their finger they give it the old flip to the ground . Im just curious if this is a cultural thing can you please reply

I think IT looks the same as apple watch. That is awesome try for those of who like cheaper one.

I bought me 24 of them for $24 and already sold them out for $300 each, made good profit on it, cause people tought they were apple watch. I'm looking to buy more, apple fanboys are easy prey.

Only sold by the real maker of them rather than cloning them poorly.

Techno - January 10, 2015 at 9:15pm

You wish you sold them for 300 when they are not released yet. Most Apple fanboys are gadget freaks including guns... don't make that mistake in selling them to the wrong gadget freak.

Quick question, why would anyone in their right mind need something that doesn't seem so apple material? In fact, if it involves home, how can it be homekit controlled? Just why?

gamerscul9870 - January 9, 2015 at 10:05pm

You don't even know what Steve would have done after iphone tablet and computers. Why not something you wear. He was making some personal devices, for watch it makes sense. Next gimmick, trolls call the watch a flop when it's another big hit in apples success.

gamerscul9870 - January 10, 2015 at 12:30am

No, Samsung will. They make home appliances like washing and laundry related things, this is definitely be a Rip off.

I dont mind buyin 2 for my kids... And if they are happy i will get one for me too.

Interesting. Just how long is the watch expected to last? How has the quality on it? Most importantly, what is Apple saying about this?

tng - January 9, 2015 at 5:23pm

Plastic strap and probably won't last a month of use.

gamerscul9870 - January 9, 2015 at 5:03pm

Chinese is selling it because it's cheaply made, can't be better than expensive thereby you don't get ripped off! Cluelass wtf!

Diggy - January 9, 2015 at 6:07pm

You are just figuring out now that Apple is the biggest rip off artist in the world? Look at their iPhone profit margins!

gamerscul9870 - January 9, 2015 at 5:02pm

Display looks old school like that.

Knock Off Fan - January 9, 2015 at 4:53pm

I want 2!!

FredT - January 9, 2015 at 4:51pm

Oh my goodness, I want one! Where can I get one?? Just joking.

Gibson - January 10, 2015 at 2:24am

I bought one and it is a genuine Apple product, just that the factory making for Apple is selling stock unauthorized before mail Apple launch. I have bought the 5,5S and 6 same way, some 4 months before their launch dates. yawn. old story

Ken - January 10, 2015 at 8:05am

Yea right, how come no one has ever reported buying an iPhone 4 months before they went on sale; proof or it didn't happen.

FredT - January 10, 2015 at 8:25am

Gibson bought a knock off Apple product and didn't even know it. That's how he (thought) he bought an Apple product months before launch.
