Hey techies,
I've been looking into smartphones recently because I intend on getting one in July. If I'm honest I don't want to spend £450 on the Galaxy S4 or the HTC One, and I'd still rather not the Galaxy S3. Looking around on Amazon there are a number of these flagship clones produced by Star or TTsims for about £150 that on paper look pretty decent, and a pretty good substitute to the real deal despite a few pieces of irremovable Chinese software (apparently these can be removed by rooting, but I have no idea what that is or how), the majority of them boast quad-core A7's or A9's with a MK6589 graphical processor, and varying between qHD and fHD AMOLED screens.
But how DO they compare to the real thing, if I'm honest I don't need the best thing in the world, but I'd prefer at least 720p with a quad-core, so if none of these actually are that good I may just settle for the Galaxy S3 Mini.
If anybody has any experience or knowledge on these matters, please share
