IS it a fake??
OK So my friend got "this" phone off of ebay, thinking it was an authentic Motorola Slvr L7, I noticed a few things on it, which leads me to believe its a fake.
1.)Its the pink version, but its a different shade of pink than the one sold by cingular.
2.)its shell is made of plastic rather than metal.
3.)on the key pad, the numbers are a bit raised, and there are odd symbols on the keys.(maybe chinese ??)
4.)the memory card slot is on the side rather than behing the battery.
5.)The motorola logo on the top of the screen is smaller than on the one sold by cingy.
6.)around the phone(on the side) is a black ring, is there supposed to be a black ring at all??
7.) there isnt an itunes icon in the main menu, but itunes is in the phone, u...

It's definitely an after-market faceplate. The memory card slot is supposed to be on the side of the phone, not behind the battery. Since it does have a card slot, it makes me think it is an L7. It was probably just a black one that someone put a pink faceplate on.
It's also probably an import.

It means it was made for a market outside of the US. It's no big deal since it's a quad band GSM phone though.

Umm humm I see. Yea its not a big deal, the phone seems to work fine and it came with a bunch of accessories from the seller on ebay, I just wanted to make sure my friend didnt get scamed into paying full price for a "fake" phone .

Nah, it looks like they just got a fake faceplate. If they don't like it I'd look for some different kinds online.
