See update below.
Late night TV host Jimmy Kimmel sent one of his minions out onto Hollywood Boulevard armed with an iPad mini, and aimed to convince passers-by that the small-size tablet was in fact Apple's "new iPhone." It's clear that few fanboys crossed Kimmel's path, because the folks interviewed seemed impressed with the so-called handset's "click and lick" functionality, the clarity of its calls, and more.
Check out the video for yourself, it sure made me laugh:

Scripted or genuine? It's impossible to tell. As a reminder, the "real" iPhone 5s features a 4-inch (not 7.9-inch) screen, a 64-bit Apple A7 processor, an M7 coprocessor, and support for a mode of fingerprint recognition called "Touch ID."

Update. After some deliberation, myself and my colleague Aldrin Calimlim have decided that Conan's take is even funnier: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7-RetY7fGo&feature=player_embeddedIf you can't see the above video, please click this link.
