GooPhone i5
Oh I went there! The GooPhone i5 might be known as an iPhone 5 knock-off but this clone is actually just as well spec’d as the real thing and could possibly be just as fast!
GooPhone i5 Specification
The GooPhone i5 will take advantage of the price drop in Nvidia CPU’s and will back a Tegra 3 quad-core CPU running at 1.4ghz with1GB RAM.
There will be also 16GB of built in memory (plus a rumored 32GB model) and possibly and SD card reader.
The 4 inch screen on the GooPhone i5 actually has a better resolution than the real iPhone 5 boasting 1250 x 720 however we have no idea about the PPi on the GooPhone’s screen.
The rear camera is rumored to be 12 mega-pixels, but i believe an 8 mega–pixel unit is more likely, and it will probably ship with Android 4.0.4 with an iOS theme built on top.
GooPhone i5 Price
The GooPhone i5 is expected to go on sale for around 2000 Yuan ($316) which is a bit pricey but remember this is off contract so it will be cheaper than the real iPhone 5 in the long run (if it is as good quality).
I prefer still waiting the JY-G3 jejeje
If they ever launch and are available in so that everyone can buy them rather than preorder or whoever manages to get one first.
The thing with the Iphone is that Apple kinda makes it easy to get one too.
Hi Andi
Can I request a blog about the best Chinese phones CURRENTLY Available? It might be something you update every month.
I like what you are doing with upcoming tech, but the fact is that there is always something newer, faster, better around the corner. Like many people, I need to buy a phone now (old iPhone died and iPhone 5 really doesn’t impress me). So I’ve been following your blog for about two months and I keep learning about the next hot thing but never about the hottest thing I can buy right now…
Thanks
Simon
Really keen for the M2 – as MIUI is such a great ROM.
Wondering if it will work on LTE though.
@Simon. Couldn’t agree more – perhaps there should be separate sections for goods that are available (with proper reviews and where-to-buy guides) and for up-and-coming shiny.
Simon, ill secound that! Any link to a buyers guide would be appreciated too!
really waiting for the Oppo Find 5 😛
You know what would I love andy? a comparison of these chinese smartphones against some mid range smartphone, particularly those using novathor U8500: xperia P, galaxy S advance, I’m sure the MT 6775 can stand agains them, and costing almost half the price!
I will buy a phone when I am on business trip in china. Now I have heart there are maybe problems with the Androis update for other languages. Moreover the google app store is not supported by the phone, only a chinese store. Is this right?
Andi, 360.63 ppi is for Goophone i5 based on the screen size and resolution.
It is really amazing to know how people curiosity for a new phone can be exploited by traders. From ur note i see the price of oppo Find5 to b in the range
od 450to500$. I saw the price from a online trader for the same at 1000$.
Can the manufacturer ensure that before they release the phonr, they
have enough of inventory with them
waiting for oppo 5
Nice Phone….when can we get in India….and how much price
really waiting for the Oppo Find 5 …… in India….
I’ve found 2 types of Oppo Find 5. Can anyone tell me, which is the _real_ one: the rounded or the other one?
I guess the ones we have seen are just mock ups or prototypes, however if Oppo follow their current style I’d guess the straight edge one.
Thank you! I liked the rounded one, but I will very satisfied if I’ll get one. 😉
