From all the rumors leaked photos and even the fact that dummy
iPad mini's are
on sale we've put together a pretty complete picture of what the
mini iPad from Apple is likely to offer. But if you are still left wanting and want a more
Android feel to your
iPad mini while getting the benefits of a modern phone then this
iPad mini clone from
China could be what you've been looking for!
This
iPad mini which has been
on sale in
China for a few months now doesn't offer the same 7.85 inch screen and rather uses a more conventional 7 inch display, but other than that most people would believe this Chinese made Android
tablet is in fact the all new
iPad mini!.
Rather than just making yet another Android tablet the Chinese company behind this iPad mini clone have actually gone the phablet route and have packed this 7 inch iPad mini wannabe with full phone capabilities including 3G and even dual sim support!
Performance wise we are left wanting wishing for a little more as this clone get's an older single core MT6575 CPU rather than the newer and faster dual-core MT6577, there are also front and rear cameras and the usual smartphone/phablet features such as Bluetooth, Wifi, and GPS.
As you would expect from such a device, the Android user interface is not quite like that of other Android devices, and has been highly modified to make it look like the mini iPad tablet is actually running iOS.
Price of this iPad mini clone are currently around $200 but if you can wait a few more weeks we'll likely be seeing some much more powerful and overall better looking iPad mini clones arriving for similar prices!
