real or not? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

found a diamond on ebay- can anyone tell me if it is real- looks like it is a fake to me- but a pretty good fake if it is....

Hum... Difficult to say without having it in our hands...
First, the splashscreen says "HIC" and not "HTC"... (Fake or Customized???)
Second, the Dual SIM option doesn't fit our phones...
Third, the price is so low...
I think, it's a FAKE...

thanks for that- after googling diamond dual sim i found some chinese knockoff called diamond j6- the pics of it fit this one perfectly- so its a copy.
thx for your help.

there is a chance that the'll do it even better from the original!
If they are anything like the iPhone copies I wouldnt hold me breath! Its bound to happen tho!
what about registering at htc e-club... ?
or do you mean before buying the device?
Looks like they mean BEFORE purchasing the device.
Eg how do you know the device is fake?
From what ive seen of the iPhone fakes they are pretty obvious but ive yet to see a copy of the Diamond. The iPhone fakes looked kinda ok, but the software on them wasnt very good at all. (check YouTube for some examples!)
I guess it would be obvious from where you purchased it from eg eBay (thats where they usually are for sale!)
its been done.

it is simple look for HTC logo between screen and buttons ... this copy obviously doesn`t have it and thinking about it they can`t put it there because then it would be crime and they could be prosecuted for it ...
Even the box is styled like the Diamonds with -"CECT Smart Mobility" on it! (not high quality plastic like the original Diamonds box, hehe!) They have even left the HTC logo on the phone on the box artwork!
Cheeky fellows!

The problem is when they put pictures of the real Diamond and then send you one of those fakes Anyway just avoid ebaying expensive items to sellers with less than 1000 votes and you should be confident that they are selling what they are showing on the pics.
yep ensure for buyers protection and you won`t have a problem at all ... you can always contact e-bay about buying fake item

I bought it from Taiwan. But, believe me it is very nice than diamond.
Yes soft touch much better than plastic and it looks better
Does the Victor has Accelerometer? It is supposed to have less memory than Diamond is it true? Do TF3D Works well?
It does have the accelerometer and it does have the same amount of memory as the Diamond.
PLEASE USE THE SEARCH. This has been answered already.
Its the same phone under the cosmetically different skin.

You can get a brand new Victor for very little money because they can be sim-locked but as you now that is no problem when we have XDA forum

i've looked it up on google and seen many people that say: "the package arrived correctly" or "the customer service is good" and some other saying: "this is a reputable site"
so i would give it a try
Thanks for the help bro, means a lot

So did you bought from this site. Little feedback would be good.
nope, I haven't, because I noticed that this page is kinda simple to be an online store so, I don't think I can trust it
Fair enough to go on your gut instinct, but there's nothing wrong with that site, it's just cheaply made.
There's a thread on here somewhere and they are pretty well liked.
I'm also looking for a new battery cover and there's some decent cheap ones on ebay. Some OEM, some refurb.
