No.1 S6 Samsung Galaxy S4 clone shows off hands free gesture controls in this video


Chinese phone and tablet maker No.1 have been boasting about the gesture controls of their new Galaxy S4 inspired N01. S6 but only now do we see them in action.

The No.1 S6 is a Mediatek powered quad-core Samsung Galaxy S4 clone which will go on sale very shortly. Other than the quad-core chipset and overall S4 looks the main stand-out feature of this phone is the gesture controls.

Gizchina News of the week


In previous reports No.1 have spoken about how they have made the S6 to work with hands free gesture controls and this short video shows us that you can in fact scroll through the image gallery and application screens by simply swiping your hand above the screen. It’s an innovative feature, but we would like to see smart pause (video pausing when looking away from the screen) and eye tracking scrolling built-in to the phone too.

The phone features a quad-core 1.2GHz MTK6589 processor, 1GB RAM, 13MP rear camera, Android 4.2 OS and 5-inch HD display.

According to the source of the video the S6 will go on sale before the 15th July.

    It seems that only 2 gestures are supported. Not even sure if it is supported in every app.

    If it would be compatible with every app, it could be handy for recipes are so, but even then the usefulness is quite limited (IMO).

      I honestly don’t see the point in this. Smart pause and other eye tracking features are really useful, but this just looks a bit like a gimmick to me.

    What is the problem of Chinese people with nude girls? Are all of them pervert or just phone sellers? Why they are not willing to show pics of something else? They think they sell the girl and give the phone for free, IMHO.

      I wonder too why they do that.
      If I show these video’s to my wife (because she needs another phone), she thinks the same like you.
      What do they think ‘Yeah I’ll buy this phone because of the ‘beautifull’ girls on the pic’s.
      (-_-“)

    The phone in the video has masking tape over the brand. Did anyone notice? I reckon it’s a fake No.1 S6 phone. I believe it is a real Samsung S4 disguised as a No.1 S6.

      I asked him on Youtube.
      Waiting for his reply.

        I would of think it is because No.1 decided to add the SAMSUNG logo but now that I think of it it makes more sense that this video is probably a hoax

    Andi,

    Nokia 5800, phone ..Old Symbian phone I have seen a guy doing those. There is a proximity sensor in that phone and he did end calls,and change songs in new player like that.

    This is not much valuable feature,

    Why No 1 ???

    Sotong is right. It’s fake all the way.
    No setting showing which phone etc?
    I also can type my mi2 and show like mi2s!

    Yeah, it’s fake. The screen is way to clear to be 720p resolution.
    The design is spot on, the lightning on the buttons is amazing, the audio speaker is simply way to awesome, never heard anything that good on a china phone. On his “review” video he doesn’t load settings/benchmarks even once.

    Android-inside fails once again.

    Actually the No 1 S6 single sim version is now available in http://www.fastcardtech.com.. With the dual sim version coming soon… However, the S6 is renamed to HDC GALAXY S4 LEGEND for website differentiation… Check the links for the video demonstration of the air gesture and physical comparison with the real Samsung galaxy S4…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ4UrXO2Ixw…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEqDnfxYGT0…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guj178LChBQ

        I have bought 5 phones from fastcardtech,.. they can be trusted from my experience,..its obvious from the video that its different from the S4,that’s if you have handled the S4 before,..however if you need more information on the NO 1 S6,..check this link,..www.no-1phone.com,..must warn you that the site is in Chinese,..you will need google translate to navigate successfully,..also you will need to register in the S6 forum to view important pictures and videos,..you can however sign in if you have a QQ id

            I normally pay to fastcardtech through wire or T/T (meaning I send them money from my foreign currency bank account)..its called domiciliary account in my country…once you have the money value of the item you wanna pay for in your domiciliary account..,.just instruct your bank to transfer the money to the recipient…however you can also send money to fastcardtech through western union,..i understand you get a discount if you pay by T/T or western union

    pretty sure it’s a samsung galaxy s4 with tape over the logo on the front and a generic backplate. pretty lame if you ask me.

  10. June 24, 2013

    Hi, I”m Boots, from Android-inside. Let’s explain all question:
    1. This is real NO.1 S6 phone, why do I tape the logo? On the first batch, the factory produced some phones with single SIM card slot, and partial phones print some illegal logo, so we hide it.
    2. The NO.1 S6 will has NO.1 logo on the back, and will come dual SIM card slots, this batch will arrive before July 15th, and Android-inside will get this version phone first.
    3. Why does you sell the first batch? Sorry, we are legal company, only sell phones with legal logo.
    4. About gesture controls feature, in fact, it is NOT real floating touch panel, just use the facing LED as gimmick. (The real floating touch panel is very expensive, is use this part, the cost will be very high)
    5. About smart pause, this feature is adjust on software, but I don’t know when it will be completed. Maybe can’t succeed.
    If you have any question, please send email to us: support@android-inside.com. Thanks for all.

      Hi boots,

      i posted on your blog but my message didn’t appear.

      Good news about being dual sim, i will order 1 or 2 units for sure as soon as you have them 🙂

    Hi,

    i have a real Samsung S4 and i can tell you a few reasons why it’s a real clone :

    1°) screen isn’t samoled, you can see that when he moves the unit around while watching video mostly (better vision angles and contrast on original S4) or if you got good eyes (and screen), black isn’t perfect on galery’s background.

    2°) that gesture feature.. isn’t supported in apps menu and homescreen on original S4 just as simple as that.

    3°) software is different : galery, video player, widgets and bloatwares in menus. You may think they are the same because you don’t own one. But for example, in the galery, you always get 1st picture bigger than all others. Video player is also totally different. So i think they are just stock android ones (not available on S4).

    So wait for a new video if you need more proofs instead of doubting (which is normal if you don’t own a real S3 / S4).
