It was only a matter of time before we'd see this one, right? As has been the case with [many](http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/10/kirf-galaxy-s-iii-designed-for-cheapskates-inspired-by-samsung/), [many](http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/02/kirf-macbook-air-is-the-prettiest-netbook-weve-seen-today/) other gadgets, Samsung's [Galaxy Note II](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/08/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-review/) is the latest one to join the "Keepin' it Real Fake" revolution. Formally dubbed Star S7180, this phablet clone, as you can imagine, doesn't come even close to matching the genuine Note II's mighty spec sheet, with this 5.5-inch [KIRF](http://www.engadget.com/tag/kirf/) device said to be only boasting a dual-core MT6577 CPU with 1GB RAM, 4GB of internal storage and an 8-megapixel cam on the back -- but, hey, at least there's some [Jelly Bean](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/android-4-1-jelly-bean-review-a-look-at-whats-changed-in-googl/) to go with that. According to _GizChina_, you'll have to shell out about $150 for the Star S7180, which, all in all, isn't too bad a deal -- that's if you don't mind taking the faux route, of course. At any rate, you'll find additional eye candy after the break, and, judging by the looks, it may just be [Mr. Blurrycam's](http://www.engadget.com/tag/mr+blurrycam/) best work yet.
