One small correction regarding the specs. The phone can't have an adreno GPU as that's exclusive to snapdragon chipsets. On a chipset be it snapdragon or mediatek the GPU is integrated so they can't mix them. This particular mediatek chipset has a Mali-400 MP2 GPU.

So the best way to determine if your phone is fake or not is to check out the cameras. I've gone through my Note 20 Ultra's camera modes while covering each camera until the screen is black and it turns out to be genuine. Also, the speed and the flow of the screen would immediately tell you if it's genuine or not.

I recently brought a clone of an apple watch and outside it's scaringly similar including a legit amoled display. On the inside was another story of course. I think factories in China started to resell whatever components didn't pass QA for their main brand, I think the cheapest parts are easy to smuggle (boxes, screen, device shell and frames), so I bet that generate an IMEI, or repurpose an IMEI from a QA discarded device is probably what's in play here. Heck, I won't be surprised if they fake the IMEI on both stickers and software and sell a bunch of 1000s fake Samsungs with the same but legit IMEI

The other was a couple of scammers trying to "trade it in" thinking they'd get cash in a best buy, even if we didn't catch it. We reported it and it turned out they've done this scam in a few stores before, I'm guessing they'd spend whatever credit they got on something they could sell after.
