Affordable gadgets mimic premium tech designs

Several tech brands are now offering products that resemble premium gadgets but at lower prices. This trend allows consumers to enjoy similar designs and features without the high costs associated with brands like Apple and Bose. For example, the Boat Stone Opus mimics the Marshall Acton 3 speaker's retro design but is priced at ₹ 8,999 compared to Marshall's ₹ 31,999. Similarly, the Amazfit Active smartwatch offers features akin to the Apple Watch SE for just ₹ 7,499. Other products include Samsung's Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, which have a design similar to Apple's AirPods Pro, priced at ₹ 19,999. The Infinix Note 40X smartphone also imitates the iPhone Pro's camera layout, appealing to those wanting an iPhone-like look without the expense.
