CaFi has capacitive, knockoff has resistive. The buttons are physically the same, but perform different functions. I like the button setup on the knockoff better personally. The knockoff can also be rooted and use BT OBD2. Mine refreshes almost as fast as USB OBD2. The CaFi has red/green led's where the knockoff has blue.

What about the connectivity? Does the knockoff have rear iPhone, USB, Camera, Steering Wheel, etc... inputs?

Same inputs.

I've noticed that in the "Ca-Fi File Manager" video 2forme is showing some sort of USB hub that seems to be connected from the inside to the head unit. Can this be achieved with the knock-off as well?

Yup, I run the same setup on my knockoff as I did on the CaFi. It's not "inside" the head unit. I run the USB cord to my glove box where the hub is connected.

Cheers!
Hope this helps!
