alt Hacker NewsI mean in theory Apple are a company of humans using services offered by other humans to make hardware used by other humans.
What I mean by that is if someone can create a near perfect replica with all the software keys needed and then clone a known serial number or range of serial numbers, when it comes to apple pushing out an OS update, how are they to know which the real devices are and which aren't?

Didn't the legal battle between Apple and Samsung show that Apple would not be very open to a iPhone clone?

I think you would need to hack and emulate the whole security enclave, which contains quite a bit of factory-provisioned data IIRC.
