We can say this is a copyright infringement but we could also say this might be a creation because they do a combination that no one ever did before: put LV or Gucci on mobile phones. Actually for your understanding, this is one of essessences of Chinese Shanzhai (Shan Zhai, Shan zai) products.
to give you an idea, I will take the following phone as an example:
(I got this from www.babikenshop.com )
Elegant Stylish Gucci Mobile Phone
Babiken Dual SIM China FM Cell Phone
Babikenshop Shanzhai Luxury Mobile Phone A300
* GSM900/1800
* Dual SIM card slots working simultaneously
* Display: 2.4 inch
* Ringtone: 64 chord and mp3
* MP3 Music player
* 3GP video player
* FM Radio tuner
* Camera: 1.3 MP digital camera
* Video and sound recorders
* Memory card 256M as gift, the slot supports 8GB microSD
* File manager
* Bluetooth & WAP & GPRS
* Other more information: Handsfree, SMS group sending, WAP, Bluetooth, MMS, Memory extended, E-book, calendar, calculator, unit converter, memo
After we see the photos, it will surely cost you a fortune to buy these kind of phones if the phones are made by Louis Vuitton or Gucci companies or any other big companies like Nokia. but actually this kind of "luxury mobile phones" are affordable for a lot of consumers because they are made by those underground China Shanzhai phone manufacturers.
