Chinese makers cloning international devices isn’t exactly news. However, some Chinese clone-makers are up to something special, as they’ve started cloning devices from their own country!
The one we’re going to talk about today – Jingston. Even the name sounds a lot like an established flash storage maker’s!
Jingston just launched the A555, which happens to be a clone of none other than the powerful OPPO Find 7 (which we also reviewed). Unfortunately, unlike the usual clones that we see, the Jingston A555 actually costs more than the original OPPO Find 7 at 3,499 CNY or $568.
Specifications
- 5.5-inch 1280 x 720p display
- 2GHz MediaTek MT6592T octa-core CPU
- 2GB RAM
- 8GB on-board ROM
- 16 mega-pixel main camera
- 5 mega-pixel front camera
As you can see, costing as much as the 2K OPPO Find 7, it doesn’t even come with the specs set of the cheaper 1080p version!
So, what is your take on this obnoxiously overpriced piece of kit? Does it sail your boat?
