[General Questions and Answers] Manuxo:
Doubts about goophone.

Hello,

I've this phone (Goophone I5) and the goophone y5 (iphone 4s clone).

In this post i'll do a review of both.

Goophone Y5

Unboxing:

Brings earphones, iphone data cable and charger. Even the manual is the same as iphone 4s.

Look:

Looks exactly the same as iphone 4s. It has the same aluminium structure, back case in glass and retina display with 960x640 pixels as the original iphone.

It came with a micro sim slot as the iphone 4s. So, you must cut your regular sim card to fit on this phone as you do with the real one.

OS Look

It looks exactly the same as iphone 4s. It comes with an default launcher that is 99,99% the same as the iphone 4s.

All the S.O was edited to look as the iphone 4s. And to be honest i'm really impressed with their work. It's very well made.

Performance:

This is a very good phone. It is fast, it runs all the most played games with no lag at all. I was expecting it to be some kind of slow and laggy, but it isn't. It does it job very well.

But you must take a point in consideration. This is an android based software, so it will not be as fast as an iOS phone. iOS is made in objective C and android is java based. so.. iOS is faster than any android based cellphone.

Camera

It has an 5.0 MP Camera with flash. The quality is good when you take pictures at day light. Night pictures aren't that good...but as any phone you get more quality with day pictures than night.

The video recording is good. The format is 3GP but is ok. The camera recording is fast and its quite reliable.

Overview

For that people who love android (like me) i recommend you to buy this phone. It's so similar, than if you have a real iphone 4s you can replace some parts from the goophone y5 (Screen and Battery).

I got mine from thecheapchoice.com

Here is the link: http://www.thecheapchoice.com/en/smartphones/13-goophone-y5-.html

The price is around $200 USD. But it worth every penny.

I bought mine from here. They have 3 options of shipping.

- Free shipping (15 -30 days).

- Registered air mail (Tracking code: 10 - 20 days )

- DHL, EMS, Fedex (5 - 10 Days)

Payment:

They only accept Paypal. But is okay! This way you have your order secured. If you don't get it in 45 days you can ask the refund.

This website is reliable, they don't lie to you, you get what you buy and their service is also good.

Goophone I5 Lite

Unboxing

Brings earphones, iphone data cable and charger.

Look

Looks exactly the same as iphone 5. It has the same aluminium structure with only 7.6mm , back case as the iphone 5 and display with 960*540 pixels (not retina display) but it has good quality. It is very very similar to retina display, you won't see the difference.

It came with a micro sim slot as the iphone 5. So, you must cut your regular sim card to fit on this phone as you do with the real one.

OS Look

It looks exactly the same as iphone 5. It comes with an default launcher that is 99,99% the same as the iphone 5. I think that the company took the launcher from the goophone y5 and just improved it.

All the S.O was edited to look as the iphone 5. It's more iphone like than the Y5

Performance

It is really fast. It brings a dual core processor and 1GB ram so you will notice that every move you make on it will be fast.

Camera

It has an 8.0 MP Camera with flash. The quality is good.

The video recording is also good.

Overview

The phone is good, is well made, good touch screen and it's fast. And the most important thing: It is ANDROID based. It's not heavy so it don't look like a brick in your pocket.

If i recommend it? Of course. Instead of paying more than $600 USD for a iphone 5 i can have this one for more than half a price, with the same look and with a good performance.

For the ones who say that chinese phones don't worth it, it's because you don't know how things are. China is currently the biggest smartphones productor of the globe.

There are hundreds of different phones, brands and models. So before buying one, you must search a lot until you find the correct one.

Some phones are exactly the same apparently, but then there are many brands making it..so, inside chinese clones are clones of clones..:)

Before buying a Goophone I5 or another Goophone, try to look for genuine ones and not clones like thunderbird, etc.

On that website, they only sell genuine Goohphone's. So if you want to buy one i think is the right place to go.

I hope i helped you out.
