The GooPhone i5 looks set to be the new iPhone 5 beater in more ways than one if these rumoured specifications are any indication of how the new iPhone wannabe will perform!
According to sources close to GooApple, and various pieces of information we have personally gathered we already have a pretty good idea of the specification the latest GooPhone Android phone will get once it is launched, and there is a good chance that the GooPhone i5’sspecification could be every bit as good as the real new iPhone 5!
As previously reported GooPhone are expected to use Nvida’s powerful and, now low-cost, Tegra 3 quad-core CPU in the i5 which will be running at 1.4ghz. 1GB RAM and 16GB ROM will help in the memory department, and there are rumors a 32GB version will be made available also.
The 4 inch screen, the same size we expect Apple to be using in the new iPhone 5 (the 6th generation iPhone) is said to have a resolution of 1280 x 720 which could actually be higher than the real iPhone’s which is rumoured to have a resolution of just 640 x 1136!
Gizchina News of the week
Android ICS (ice-cream sandwich) 4.0.4 will be loaded on the GooPhone i5 as standard, but this won’t be any old Android ROM, but rather a customised version of ICS to give the OS the look and feel of iOS 6!
While we still don’t know if the genuine iPhone 5 will get 4G, we can be pretty certain the GooPhone i5 will not, but all the other data and navigation options should be accounted for including Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi, GPS, AGPS along with 3G and 2G network support.
Cameras are likely to be on par with the new iPhone 5, unless Apple are planning to up the ante with a 12 mega-pixel rear camera that is, and both the i5 and iPhone 5 are expected to share a similar 8 mega-pixel rear, 1.3 mega-pixel front camera arrangement!
We’ll bring you more on the GooPone i5 as we get more details!
While you’re here what would your dream GooPhone i5 iPhone 5 killer specification be? Let me know in the comments sections below!
Going with the Tegra 3 might be good since binaries for it are widely available, due to it being used in the Nexus 7. We might see Cyanogenmod 10 for this sooner rather than later 😉
To add on, I wish that they have a non-iPhone lookalike model. Buying this phone makes me feel like a Apple wannabe who couldn’t afford an iPhone… Which this phone is probably aimed towards. :p
