Some other hints to identify fake boards:
- CH340 serial chips with 2 rows of pins on a rectangular shaped IC instead of square 16U2 ones.
- No golden Arduino logo on one of the components (crystal?)
- No print on the sides of the connectors
- No gap-fill between the hearders.
Question: are the model names also registered trademarks, or can one call their clones Leonardo, Due, Mega and such?

I bought my a "fake" nano for a couple of cents and it works pretty well

I've never had an Arduino that wasn't an off brand. I've been happy with my Raza uno and elegoo mega boards. Got a couple unos with sun something in their name.... Haven't gotten around to doing anything with them....


So far my biggest challenge has been finding dht11 sensors and motion sensors that work.... Haven't tried the last batch of dht11 sensors but they look like the ones that were having errors. And I swear the motion sensors worked when I first swapped in a new one to test. I can't really just keep buying sensor kits to get over of the sensors they include.

Originals are way too pricey for tinkering, and for commercial products there is little reason to use Arduino when most of the time simple MCUs can do the job just fine.
