Hi Guys,
I just got a hold of a fake Galaxy SIII manufactured by ALPs a China Based company.
This review is created so that everybody will be aware of such fakes being circulated, to stop such piracy from spreading even more, prices and purchase location will not be mentioned.
SPECS:
- 4.8" IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen (196 ppi pixel density)
- 4 GB internal storage, microSD slot, up to 32 GB and 512 MB RAM
- 3G HSDPA; GPRS; EDGE, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n
- 8 MP, 3264×2448 pixels, autofocus, LED flash 720p@30fps video recording AND Secondary - VGA
- Dual Core 1 GHz MediaTek MT6577 processor
- PowerVR SGX531 GPU GPU
- Android OS, v4.1.1
PROs:
- If you cant afford an S3 then this look tempting
- Dual-Core 1ghz packs some cool performance
CONs:
- Android OS 4.1.1 (I'll explain in a bit)
- Battery Life 4-5 hrs WIFI on and Talk time
- Gyroscope is not accurate
For the average person this device may look and feels similar to Samsung's Flagship but dont be fooled this thing is full of BAD SECRETS!!!
- OS V4.1.1 under about phone its really what is says... but in reality its just running 4.0.4 ICS.. YES you hear me ICS.. Not Jellybean... the Chinese only manipulated the system build.prop to change the android version.
The specs are actually very much the same with the new MyPhone A919 and the Cherry Mobile:Titan and trust me you are better of with those phones since atleast you get some promise of software support and of course 1 yr warranty.
So Guys Please Stay away from this phone... though its very cheap its still not worth the money.
