This is not the first
Xiaomi Hongmi clone we have seen, but it is the first which is on
sale to customers outside of China. Branded as the
OrientPhone M1, the
cheap handset gets a dual-core processor, 512mb RAM, dual-sim support, 4.70inch display, and Android 4.2. According to those who have tested the phone, the M1 runs a similar
MIUI interface as Xiaomi’s phones too, and with a 2600mAh
battery (2 x included) it should offer quite good
battery life.
