There's some telltale signs  that you need to watch out for when it comes to the  N95.<img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l252/gazaly786/image001-8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Here's a  side-by-side comparison of the two phones, frontal view.  Note: The stylus-driven menu buttons (red  box). The fake N95 has a "touch-screen" with a stylus, and the  easiest way to spot the counterfeit is by checking this area. If you see a row  of little icons (compare to the real N95, bottom), then it's a  knock-off. Wrong buttons and no dual-slide.  (yellow and green boxes) In place of the real N95's  Menu/Multimedia Key buttons, the fakey N95 has a Play button (yellow box) and a  Stop button (green box). This is mainly because it doesn't have a dual-slide  mechanism, so whoever designed the knock-off dropped the playback buttons  anywhere. And since there's no Symbian OS, there's no need for the menu buttons  either. Back view  of the real and fake N95s:<img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l252/gazaly786/image002-3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Color. The real  Nokia N95 comes in two colors: Silver/Plum and Silver/Sand (sort of a  silvery-yellowish color). The plum and sand colors refer to the back cover of  the phone (which includes the sides too). However, the counterfeit has a back  cover that's black. Lens Cover Thumb-Switch (orange  box). Doesn't exist on the fake N95, but very prominent on the  real thing. Nokia Logo (teal  box). When the two phones are looked at from this angle, note  the difference in the logo placement, size, and direction (it's flipped on the  fake). Some random camera oddity on the fake  (purple box). Not sure what this piece is supposed to be, but  there's some random design on the Nokla N95 (the knock-off) that's in the shape  of a 3. Don't be fooled! Also note  that the buttons on the fake look cheaper and are raised slightly higher than  they're supposed to be. Some more  pictures as a reference (the fake N95):<img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l252/gazaly786/image003-3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l252/gazaly786/image004-3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l252/gazaly786/image005-2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />If an  auction refers to a "replica", "Nokia N95-inspired", "NOKLA", or sounds way too  good to be true, avoid it like the plague...<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/cool.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
