Months before the awaited announcement
and release of Apple's next flagship phone (rumored the iPhone 6), clones of the device, dubbed the Wico i6 and Goophone i6 have already surfaced on the
market.
Chinese clone handset makers beat
the Cupertino based company in releasing their latest products even before the
final specifications of the rumored iPhone 6 have been officially released.
Wico i6 was announced by 86digi.com accompanied
with a video showing a demo of the actual device. Aside from the interesting
background music, the video shows a device that, at first glance, looks a lot like
the ‘leaked’ 4.7-inch version of the iPhone 6. The said clone features a 960x1704
resolution and runs with a quad-core processor with 32GB memory and 2 GB or
ram.
As you can see on the video, Wico i6 is very detailed as its
body closely resembles (aside from its side-mounted power button) the leaked
design of the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 with its slightly modified volume buttons and
curved edges. Its interface also closely resembles that of an iPhone but of
course, what you see is not the anticipated iOS 8 but rather a heavily modded
Android KitKat.
Another iPhone 6 clone that has been making a buzz over the
internet (via GizChina.com) recently is the GooPhone i6 which is set to be on the market next month. When you look at their
website, you can see that GooPhone.net not only sells the iPhone copy but also clones
of HTC and Samsung products.
GooPhone i6 boasts a 4.7-inch IPS display with a 960x540
resolution, a 5 MP front and 13 MP rear camera. The iPhone clone is said to run
on a quad-core Mediatek MT6582 chipset with 1 GB or RAM and 8 GB memory. Similar
to the other GooPhone clones, the GooPhone i6 is powered by Android.

With the iPhone 5s nearing its first birthday, and basing on
recent events concerning next-generation releases of the iPhone, Apple is set
to announce their next flagship device this September. But even before the
smartphone innovator has commented about it, leaks of their supposed new
devices have been circulating over the internet. Yes, devices. Leaks have shown
that the Apple iPhone 6 would come in 2 variants: 4.7- and 5.5-inch models. But
everything is still yet to be confirmed by Apple itself. The leaked pictures,
however, have been the sources of the design and looks of the iPhone 6 clones
that we have today.
