You should at least acknowledge the source of the story. This pic and story was originally posted on cellpassion.mobi on July 9th.

Well atleast these guys should attribute it to the source. Imagine you compose a song and someone else picks it up and brands it as his own... c'mon dude its highway robbery...

Well, maybe they got it from a different, direct source?

Don't assume things, because you never know.

That's not our source. I've never even heard of that site, and we definitely didn't see that post when we wrote ours. If that had been our source, we would have gladly given credit where it was due, but that was not the case here.

How can you honestly say that this photo:

...was based on this photo:

http://cellpassion.mobi/images/87633-76573/Music_U9_ ... »

??

Honestly, there's no amount of Photoshop magic that can make such a low-quality, distorted photo as the one on cellpassion.mobi look as nice and clear as the one we posted. It's just not possible.

Obviously we had our own source.

PS: Isn't it against the .mobi rules to use a .mobi domain for a web site designed for desktop viewing?

Oh of course it would take little skill to do so. It looks like the same picture rotated. It looks like it was trimmed and its also a smaller picture so less pix-elation. It may have not been taken from that source, but I honestly think its the same picture. Even the shadows are the same.

Even the light glares on the bottom of the phone to the finger nail are the same.... 🤨

Obviously it's the same photo, but my point is that we had our own full-resolution copy of the photo from an original Motorola source. We didn't copy it from cellpassion.

Now they are flaming PhoneScoop on their site. I think this goes beyond "hella wack". I definitely won't be bookmarking that one any time soon. The site was two weeks old and it already stirring things up.

oh it's Indian.

I'm sure the moderator of that site is a widow from Kazakhistan who needs us all to send her 500 dollars for an immediate operation.



🤣
