First official photos of the KuPhone i5 iPhone 5 Clone


Not to be confused with the still yet to be seen GooPhone i5 iPhone 5 clone, someone close to Chinese brand Kuphone has managed get some spy photos of the new KuPhone i5 along with preported specification details.

KuPhone have made quite a name for themselves over the past year with their high quality and rather powerful iPhone 4S clones which we reported on here. The latest news is that KuPhone are leaving their iPhone 4s clones behind and are now concentrating on iPhone 5 clones.

While the full specification has yet to be confirmed we do know a few details of this highly accurate replica and from these leaked photos it seems to be a good-looking and well made phone.

The KuPhone i5 iPhone 5 clone will pack a dual-core 1.2Ghz MT6577 CPU, 1GB RAM, with 8GB on board memory but there will be room for a micro SD card to boost storage space.

KuPhone are aiming to launch their iPhone 5 clone for under $200 and as such have decided to use slightly lower-cost camera’s on the KuPhone i5 with the rear unit being 5 mega-pixel but have gone for a better than average 2 mega-pixel unit for the front.

Android ICS 4.0 is expected as standard which we imagine will come with an iOS 6 type theme to give it an authentic iPhone 5 look and feel.

    I watched unboxing, and hands on videos of this phone earlier today, but people are calling it “Thunderbird I5”, “Goophone I5 Lite”, and now “Kuphone i5”, which is it?

    Sites also claim that this will be available in 1-2 weeks.

        On the front of the phone, I see the front facing camera above the speaker, but what Is the “dot” next to the speaker on the left, I’ve always wondered this.

    I can’t wait to order the best iPhone 5 clone. I also don’t know what the best is, zophone goo phone thunderbird kuphone etc. The dot next to the speaker is maybe the “eye” which see if it’s light or dark?

      so I’m guessing the “eye”, as scary as that sounds is a new feature for the iphone 5, and not the iphone 4s? If so, it’s pretty cool how the iphone 5 clone is able to replicate that feature!

      This phone is perfect, except the “eye” part should be a dot (same size as front facing cam), but instead it is oval shaped.

      The Zophone I5, Leguo, the Quad Core Goophone I5 & Quad Core Thunder I5 are the ones I’m looking out for.

      They better make it face, because the first 1:1 copy with 1:1 copy IOS 6 theme will be the one i’m purchasing for the holidays.
