Fake iPhone packaging is displayed on a stall at an outdoor market selling counterfeit Chinese made items in the Golden Triangle, situated along the Thai-Burma border on Nov. 12, 2012 in Tachiliek, Myanmar.

Although Apple Inc is expected to launch its flagship iPhone 7 in September, several leaks suggesting that many knock-off companies in China have already come up with iPhone 7 clones. In fact, an iPhone 7 clone with a dual lens camera, revamped antenna lines and Apple logo is already out.

Apple is yet to confirm any details regarding the purported iPhone 7, but the matter came to the light when iPhone leakster Sonny Dickson released a photo of the clone online. The photo reveals a very attractive device months ahead of any release from Apple. The fake iPhone 7 is complete with a pink-gold metal case and boasts a dual-lens camera on its rear side'

The appearance of this clone is similar to the pink iPhone, Giz China reported. Several leaks of the device have already inundated the Internet. However, the fake device can be distinguished from a near-final original iPhone through the finer points that say, "Designed by TAIWAN, made in China."

A look at the clone iPhone 7 makes it seem that Apple decided to continue with the headphone jack. Nevertheless, it has not clear whether or not this iPhone clone is functional. In case, it is really functional, it is possibly running an Android version, similar to all the previous iPhone clones. However, as of now, the clone does not have a commercial name for it, and it is not certain whether it is already being sold.

While most buyers usually do not bother to care about these clone devices, many of them actually purchase them. However, people to purchase used iPhones ought to be very careful because they may be sold one of these knock-offs rather than the original devices.

Meanwhile, aside from the Apple Watch, the Cupertino tech titan has not released any new product since the death of its former CEO Steve Jobs. On the other hand, the company has withdrawn certain products while supgrading some existing products, Value Walk reported.

However, the pattern may change any given time, but many experts are of the view that the time is yet to come. According to reports, Apple will possibly skip ahead to the iPhone 8 next year and that device is expected to be a game changer. Nevertheless, some Apple fans and tech enthusiasts still have high hopes for the iPhone 7, which is unlikely to offer much more compared to the iPhone 6S.
