So I clicked on the link.  If you go to the website, you will see a handheld device with a familiar desktop wallpaper of clown anemonefish surrounded by green bubbles.  So is it Apple&#8217;s iPhone?  <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In the entire website, you will see catch phrases like &#8220;iPhone&#8217;s Cool Brother,&#8221; &#8220;Super Cellphone Similar Style <strong>Iphone<\/strong>&#8221; and &#8220;Unlocked Similar Style Iphone.&#8221;  For a particular model, its description says &#8220;This <strong>Iphone<\/strong> we provide is not from Apple company, but cellphone style like Iphone from Chinese company.&#8221;  Initially, I arrived at this website, being lured by the Google ad that said <strong>iPhone<\/strong>.  But what this website has is not iPhone but <strong>Iphone<\/strong>.  Hmm&#8230;  That&#8217;s kind of a silly word game.  Anyway, they call their product iPhone&#8217;s brother.  So are they actually manufactured at the same factory?  And does that mean this handheld device uses Mac OS?<br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><\/p>\n<table width=\"440\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"mac\/buy_iphone_091507\/buy_iphone_01.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/buy_iphone_091507\/buy_iphone_01.gif\" width=\"140\" height=\"129\" alt=\"lightinthebox.com iPhone\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nScreenshot from google.com<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"mac\/buy_iphone_091507\/buy_iphone_02.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/buy_iphone_091507\/buy_iphone_02.gif\" width=\"140\" height=\"129\" alt=\"lightinthebox.com iPhone\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nScreenshot from lightinthebox.com<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"mac\/buy_iphone_091507\/buy_iphone_03.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/buy_iphone_091507\/buy_iphone_03.gif\" width=\"140\" height=\"129\" alt=\"lightinthebox.com iPhone\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nScreenshot from lightinthebox.com<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":342,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-872","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-apple-mac"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/342"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=872"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=872"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=872"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mhvt.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
