Goophone is well known in the smartphone industry for one thing: making imitations of flagship devices. We’ve seen them Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with the Goophone N4 (see image above). This of course is despite the fact the Note 4 has yet to be formally announced, but Goophone has made it a habit to make the phones just based on rumours and leaked photos, sometimes even releasing their imitation before the phone it was based on is released.
The difference between these imitations and the real deal is of course what’s on the inside. While the specifications of the Note 4 are likely to be bleeding edge, the Goophone N4′s are going to be less so: a MediaTek octacore 1.7GHz processor will be accompanied by 3GB RAM, 16GB storage and will be behind a 5.7-inch 1080p IPS LCD. It will allegedly be running Android 4.4 though Goophone says it won’t be taking preorders for the device till September 15th, after the Note 4′s official announcement at IFA 2014. No word on how much the Goophone N4 will cost, but it’s certain to be much less than the N4; as always though, you get what you pay for.
What do you think about the Goophone N4 and this whole imitation business? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
