Chinese Students Hiding Cell Phones in Oxford Dictionary Covers

Generations of counterfeit culture have culminated in this.
China has come up with the perfect way to disguise a cellphone for use during class: use a faux cell phone cover that looks exactly like an Oxford pocket dictionary, reports Southern Daily.
What’s lost on these students is… does anyone use an actual printed dictionary anymore?
Netizens provide their comments on this new product:
Qian–touch-soul：
This can only be used during English class.刷个檀木：
Do you take your teacher for an idiot? While the teacher is giving his lesson on the podium, you’ve got either a cell phone or a dictionary in your hands. It’s so obvious at with one glance.那是一个疯狂的年代：
Gosh, now I want one too!北京交通大学海滨学院校园微博：
Not a bad idea.黄老吉修远路漫漫：
Hee hee, and now I know. [nefarious.emoji]陈长飞1976：
Young people will be ruined by cell phones! It’s like a drug!Joann叮叮：
Bad influence开心木木段小兵：
Whatever the motivation was of the people that designed this, this remains a disappointment.Magic_by_design：
Previously, student would have to dig out a hole in a real dictionary to hide their phones in. [laugh.emoji]
Unfortunately, using a dictionary cover to wrap around your phone will make it much harder to take selfies in mirrors, so it could be that carrying around a fabrication of a dictionary may prove to be a good influence in the end.
