Insurgence of cloning (My Samsung Galaxy S4 clone experience)

The days of Top Brand Devices cloning are not over,

In the past when some small companies (people blame Chinese companies) manufacture very low specs replicas of top Brand phones, like NOKIA, and give them names similar to the original product to confuse uninformed consumers of these Top brand products...it was viral and you could find replicas in every corner of the city.
then came the era of Apple Ipod (mp3 player) cloning, which were way lower in specification to the original devices.

Now is the evolved era of cloning of top smartphone Brands (Samsung in particular)...
It is called cloning in this new generation of smart Devices interestingly because; these so
called clones possess very close specifications (both Hardware and Software) to their original copies to the extent that they may even obtain close test ratings by Geeks.

Funny enough, I just had an encounter with one of these replicas (clones as they are now called) when shopping for a phone replacement and I must confess I would have purchase it, if not for instincts. It was a Samsung galaxy S4 and I could barely notice any difference from the real one. Though I did not try out any of the features of the- (not so new anymore S4)- replica, such as Air scrolling and the likes (pardon me if I dont know much about Samsung S4 features), but I sure was convinced it was the real phone.
The obvious giveaway of these cloned devices is the very reduced prices they are sold for.

So...please if you are shopping for a new phone (especially online), be sure to have a money-back policy guarding your purchase. Or better still, purchase from trusted dealers.


Remember, if its too cheap...then its probably a

Please, I would love to share in your experience with Cloned or Replica Phones.

Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. Apple iPhone 5s: Spec Showdown

In what appears to be an unending rivalry between two tech giants,  Samsung and Apple continue their smartphone arms race. The Korean giant's new Galaxy S5 smartphone is poised to take on Cupertino's current champ, the  iphone 5s , as each company tries to leapfrog over the other semiannually. The Galaxy S5 doesn't look too different from the S4, but it sports a 2.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, a significant bump up from the S4's 1.9GHz Snapdragon 600.
