The best smartphones with the camera, like the iPhone. The best alternatives to iPhone SE would like the camera better

IPhones, of course, not "god-like" technician, which apple fans are present, but there are features that can be found only In the iPhone. For example, to find something on Android with a good camera and 4 inches the display is impossible in principle. And even for 4.7-inch iPhone, truly compact replacements have not been released for a long time.

You can, of course, get out and declare that there are Japanese smartphones-rarities like Sharp, but we will be realistic - almost no one needs adventure and attempts to order "disabled" from the operator Japanese mobile phone, to then have problems with his flashing, not finding covers And throw out the smartphone after the first breakdown. Because neither the batteries or screens in the territory of the Russian Federation do not sell for him.

Taking into account the foregoing, today we "dance" from the whole manifold that our official retail is offered + Chinese shops led by Aliexpress.

iPhone 5S - When you're old and weak, but still rock star

From love at first glance there is a medicine - take a look at the second time. And most often, the objects of adoration will disappoint you. Masterpieces, as it seemed in childhood, films seem to be naive and idiot, to look at the fashionable clothes of the old years, and from the music - "Pops" of past years is sick before you hear the chorus. What then to talk about old mobile phones?

And with them everything is not so bad, as it would be possible to assume from the height of 2018. For example, the last of viable iPhones, which lives his eyelids in the hands of economical Russians, iPhone 5S is now sold for 10-12 thousand. And, you will laugh, the five-year flagship Apple still takes pictures better than most smartphones for the same money.

First, because in 2013 it was a celephath of a "cool nowhere" class, as well as Samsung Galaxy S4. Secondly, manufacturers of cheap mobile phones did not want to spit on the quality of the cameras and are engaged in converting smartphones to the screens 18: 9 or glass hulls instead of useful activities. And the "anti-crisis Chinese" like Xiaomi and Meizu always installed in the cheap smartphones of the chamber "for surrender" from powerful processors.

So it turns out that the iPhone 5S is not outdated either externally (the most beautiful compact smartphone and the "gold standard" appearance of an iPhone, which iPhone 6 and subsequent can only be considered "with creak") or the quality of the camera for 10-12 thousand.

But it is completely outdated by autonomy, speed of operation and the quality of the self-camera. Therefore, even though the iPhone 5s photographs better than Xiaomi Redmi 4x / 5a, Meizu M6, Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 and Sony Xperia L2, for 10 thousand on Aliexpress or 15-17 thousand in Russia you can buy smartphones that will be better in All.

Selection of the review - Motorola Z for 14 thousand on AliExpress. With autonomy of trouble, but the camera and speed are amazing

Focus on the camera of modern inexpensive premium-"Chinese" in the face of Xiaomi Redmi 5 / Redmi 5 Plus, if you want to get about the same (sometimes a little better, sometimes a little worse) camera at the lowest price.

iPhone 6/6 Plus - very bad iPhones, but quite good cameras

I feel very uncomfortable when you have to endure the IPhone 6 verdict. On the one hand, the same, damn, mobile phone model year! Where is his peers now - LG G3, Sony Xperia Z3, Xiaomi Mi4i, ASUS Zenfone 5, Honor 6, Meizu MX4 Pro, HTC One M8 and Huawei Mate 7? In a coffin!

Among the smartphones of those years remained a small number of samsung galaxy S5, Samsung Galaxy Note 3, which, after replacing the battery and flashing, can still be used with the same convenience as Elderly iPhone 6 without flashing.

And even more fun to select the replacement of iPhone 6 among mobile phones in the official retail. Because to find an alternative that for 22 thousand well photographed at night, cheaper than 28-30 thousand in cellular salons is almost unrealistic. Moreover, according to the quality of video iPhone 6, it is also better than almost all comparable in price in the official retail alternative, while he "merges" in the quality of shooting competitors except in Selfie.

Just do not think that the camera in the iPhone 6 is all-standing. On a sunny day you can do on Honor 9 / Asus Zenfone 4 more colorful and clear pictures. But according to the ability to "pull" the colors up to the plausible level and at the deposit of the automation of the old iPhone is better than most gray-nailed smartphones.

But do not forget that the iPhone 6 is very slow and very "dead" for the duration of the smartphone. And for not a slightly more hardy iPhone 6 Plus ask inadequate 28-32 thousand rubles. Inadequate because the Trinity from Samsung Galaxy S7 / LG G6 / HTC U Ultra is better in the same budget on all fronts. And even the smartphones of the middle class of the 2018 model year, such as ASUS Zenfone 5 and Nokia 7 Plus, almost always remove better photos and videos, they work longer from the battery and much faster themselves.

Selection of the survey - Samsung Galaxy S7. So bad autonomy, but waterfrost and much better cameras

Output? Looking for a smartphone at the price of the iPhone 6 (20-24 thousand rubles) with a coolest camera in the Russian Federation - spend time in the back. Because the "next level" today begins with 27-28 thousand rubles and higher.

Looking for a replacement of iPhone 6 with about the same camera, but normal autonomy and speed - prepare at least 20 thousand, for example, on ASUS Zenfone 4 Ze554KL, while they are still on sale. Or on Samsung Galaxy S7 to get an analogue of the iPhone 6S by speed / analogue of the iPhone 7 by the quality of the camera.

I don't even stand about the "gray" retail and these of your "aliexpress" - Xiaomi Mi Note 3 for 19-20 thousand rubles, of course, sometimes be repaired in the night shooting due to idiocy of Chinese shooting algorithms in the chamber, but after the disadvantages of the elderly, the iPhone will seem Cosmically steep model.

iPhone SE - out of competition where neither look

The only iPhone, which is respecting even the most fierce fanatics Android, - iPhone SE. Because no one no longer reissued the old flagship with a new, improved filling.

And the iPhone SE is a monument to all compact mobile communications and, suddenly, one of the best "budget" (more precisely, at the junction of budget models and middle class) cameraphones!

Such luck to SE did not immediately come immediately, and a year and a half after the debut, when the iPhone 5S reserves decreased sharply, and Apple "kept" SE from the expensive toys for retro fans to "just budget iPhone". And here, the luxuriousness from the iPhone 6S with his best (one of one from) the 2015 chamber was very useful! If you suddenly forgot, the camera and the processor in the iPhone SE, for a minute, close by level to the Samsung Galaxy S6, Huawei Nexus 6P, LG G4, HTC One M9 and other "Grand"! And, no matter how annoying, the best budget smartphones (notorious Redmi Note 5) only in mid-2018 began to sew to such a quality of shooting.

And all the other inexpensive alternatives are divided into "try to find on sale" Huawei P9 and "Cameras we have the coolest, but the hands are a little from that place grow" ASUS Zenfone 3 and Zenfone 4.

Selection of the review - Xiaomi Mi Note 3. For the best combination of design, quality cameras and speed of up to 20 thousand rubles

With all its shortcomings, SE is not the "museum dotting", but a completely combat smartphone with still a good processor and a camera, which "will give a seam" to almost all competitors are cheaper than 20 thousand rubles. There are no contraindications, except for terrible selfie to buy an iPhone Se, so you can safely buy it if you want an iPhone. And if you do not want, Xiaomi Mi Note 3 or Asus Zenfone 4 Ze554Kl will change the coolest iPhone from cheap without any problems.

iPhone 6S / 6S Plus - too good to sell; too bad to buy

ASUS Zenfone 5 Ze620KL, Honor View 10, LG G6, Moto Z, Nokia 7 Plus, Oneplus 3 / 3T, Xiaomi Mi6, Xiaomi Mi Note 3
Camera is a little worse ASUS Zenfone 4 Ze554KL, Honor 10, Meizu 15 Plus, Moto Z Play, Nokia 8, Xiaomi Mi5s
HTC U11, Huawei P10, Huawei P20, Huawei Mate 10, LG V30, OnePlus 5 / 5t, Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge, Samsung Galaxy S8, Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S, Xiaomi Mi 8
How much iPhone 6S / 6S Plus are today 32-42 thousand rubles
iPhone 6S / 6S Plus or Android competitors? If you already have an iPhone 6S / 6S Plus, it is only worth selling them for the transition to more steep mobile phones worth 40 thousand rubles and more expensive. If you buy a smartphone from scratch, approximately the same on the camera and the coolest speed / autonomy of a smartphone on Android will cost 20-25 thousand rubles.

If you do not track what has changed in Mobiles since you bought a previous smartphone, just remember that the camera in the iPhone 6S is about the same as in smartphones, for which today is asked for 27-30 thousand rubles in the official retail. But if you have any benchmarks of "steep" smart cameras, remember that the iPhone 6S / 6S Plus cameras are "like in Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 EDGE, just a little worse."

It is with such a definition that it is the most convenient to select a smartphone with the same or higher quality of shooting.

The collision of the competitors in the plate is above many embarrassment, but the point is that each of the competitors in some scenarios appears better, and in some - worse. For example, almost all "approximately the same" in the quality of shooting models, except LG G6 and OnePlus 3 / 3T, take off the day better than the iPhone 6S, at night photographed the same way or a little worse, and remove the video always Less than qualitatively. And nothing to do with it, because MI6 / MI Note 3 and Zenfone 5 - smartphones with good cameras and idiotic shooting algorithms, in Moto Z good optics and more or less reasonable "brains", but a cheap sensor, and Honor View 10 sometimes "Chromas" because it did not receive optical stabilization.

Smartphones with a "higher quality" camera are also crowded in one cell table, although they differ significantly among themselves. The closest to the iPhone 6S / 6S Plus on the quality of shooting photo rivals - Samsung Galaxy S7, LG V30 and OnePlus 5. All of them are slightly better photographed in any conditions of shooting. In Samsung S7 and S8, the coolest self-chamber among all iPhone 6S competitors.

HTC U11 is still on the floor-level cooler, and the Huawei P10 is sometimes equal to Huawei P10, but in rare cases jumping above and argues on equals with Galaxy S7.

Selection of the review - Xiaomi Mi8. The coolest "Chinese" in terms of the quality ratio of cameras, processor power and prices

What of all this follows? iPhone 6s is not so outdated to throw his head to throw it to sell.

Cheaper than 40 thousand rubles in office in the summer of 2018. You either get a mobile phone that is noticeably better photographs, but it removes the video worse. Either a model that a little better photographs and also removes the video, but also slows down as much as your old iPhone. And yet it is worth it to go on one of the four Chinese "kings" of high-quality shooting (Xiaomi Mi8, Mi Mix 2s, Huawei P20, Mate 10) instead of buying a new iPhone 6S / 6s Plus.

iPhone 7/7 Plus - Honorary Winner Prize "Neither Fish, Nor Meat-2018"

Best the enemy of the good. I still do not fully understand why Apple fans have met good in all parameters of the iPhone 7 / iPhone 7 Plus with such hatred at the end of 2016. A dual camera (albeit only for the senior "shovels", but the story has shown that Samsung touched the same trick with Galaxy S9 / S9 Plus), water protection, stereo speakers, a cool processor, black, damn, matte case - or you think galaxy S7 updated in comparison with Galaxy S6 more thorough? Or perhaps, "flagship from HTC production" Google Pixel differed at least something other than the camera, for the better? Yes, in the iPhone 7 amputated a separate headphone connector, but Apple has made cool airpods. At the same time, the iPhone 7 after amputation is not discharged in comparison with iPhone 6 without visible reasons like Xperia XZ2 compared to XZ1.

The main reason for hate was not in the "bells," and in what "meet for dressing", and dressing remained the same - repeatedly tuning corps of the old iPhone 6 sample of 2014, but under a new sauce.

And the growth as a shooting cameras was also symbolic. Remember, we hung the label "a little worse than Galaxy S7" on the iPhone 6s camera? So, in the iPhone 7 camera "a little better than in Galaxy S7" ... and that's it!

It is much more terrible that it is "slightly better than in the previous iPhone", and such arrogance is allowed only for the "s-version" when moving from iPhone 5 to 5s or from 6 to 6s. But not for the "license room" iPhone.

As a result, we get a smartphone, which approached the iPhone 8 at the price, and the quality of the camera was not so far away from the iPhone 6S. And now it is difficult to find at least one good reason to buy an iphone-"seven", and not something radically sharper with delivery from abroad or a good Chinese flagship at the prices of Russian officials.

Selection of the review - Huawei Mate 10. Chinese Reliable "Armored Train" with a powerful processor, a superhumage screen and excellent cameras

iPhone 7 turned out to be "notoplagman", which was bought by inertia. Yes, and now there is no particular sense to spend money on the "seventh iPhones" no, because much more cool iPhone 8 will only cost a little more expensive. Is that you are a fundamental fan of maximum savings ("where you, sir, to hell, brew ? Surely you android do not afford? "), Or very hate smartphones in a glass case.

iPhone 8/8 Plus - the best new iPhones ... for which I do not want to overpay

About the same quality camera Huawei P20, Huawei Mate 10, LG G7, OnePlus 6, Sony Xperia XZ2, Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S, Xiaomi Mi 8
Camera is a little worse HTC U11, LG V30, OnePlus 5 / 5t, Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge, Samsung Galaxy S8
High quality camera for the same money Google Pixel 2, HTC U12 +, Huawei P20 Pro, SAMSUNG GALAXY S9 / S9 Plus
How much iPhone 8/8 Plus stand today 46-60 thousand rubles
iPhone 7/7 Plus or Android competitors? If you need a cool iPhone here and now - iPhone 8 64 GB for 46 thousand + Power Bank for a small surcharge. And we are waiting for the iPhone X second generation. If on the hands of the iPhone 7 - we save calm and wait for a new model. iPhone 6S - change to the "eight" only if the smartphone is already in the "half-time" condition. If Android does not confuse - for 45 thousand rubles you can get the best cameras performed by Samsung. Or even for 38, if the zoom without loss and blur is not needed.

Apple iPhone 8 Plus

the iPhone 8 on the family was written to become a "second grade" iPhone - mobile phones who came out simultaneously with the revolutionary iPhone X, which were released only as a comforting prize. Like, if you do not have enough money, then at least for such semi-dimensing are discharged.

Marketers calculated everything correctly - the audience of the buyers was divided into those who are ready to pay for cramplessness and prestige (laugh, laugh, but Vertu has long been in the grave, and no other options shine with a cool smartphone, except for iPhone X, not left), and those whom " And I have a new processor and almost the same cameras, but by 24 thousand rubles cheaper! ".

If you want to get "all minced" iPhone at the lowest price, take the iPhone 8 for 46 thousand and be happy. No sarcasm is a very fast smartphone with a power reserve, autonomy one day and cameras in the fourth of the best smartphones in the world. Yes, yes, in the troika - after universally good Samsung Galaxy S9 / S9 Plus, Huawei P20 Pro, HTC U12 + and iPhone X. Not a very romantic title? But 24 thousand rubles of savings!

And against the background of these 24 thousand fades everything in the "white" retail. What is needed by Huawei P20 for 40 thousand, if the iPhone 8 gives the "Chinese" on the quality of the screen, the detail of the video and, what is there, the speed of work too?

All top devices inevitably become objects for imitation and copy. Not passed Say of the bowl and the iPhone of the sixth series from Apple. The Cupertinovsky's similar, commercially successful, the product was not released earlier, although the fame of one of the leading companies in the field of computer and mobile technologies has long been firmly consolidated for themselves.

Shortly after the exit of the original, numerous, surprisingly similar versions fell out of the horns of abundance. Some phones looked like an iPhone only externally, the masterfully imitating even the interface of the branded programmatic shell, functioning on Android. Others - did not strive for obvious similarity, and for some technical parameters even exceeded the "original source".

However, often excessive "filling" has negatively affected the performance of the device. Still, Apple products are rightfully considered one of the most stable.

What do not say, but the company pays a lot of attention to the coherence of the work of the software and hardware parts of the smartphone.

iX-Maxitexet.

Amazingly similar to the "apple" smartphone was IX-MAXI, from the Russian company TeXet. The same aluminum case, discovering the eyes 8 -mp Camera, Imit buttonsHOME (without a built-in sensor, reading fingerprints of the owner), the same notorious plastic strips over the antennas. From the side immediately and not distinguish. Practically all ports and connectors exactly "jams" with iPhone 6.

The backward side and could pass for the "six" if it were not for the replacement of the "thicker" logo on the inscription of the manufacturer's brand - TeXet. The main technical characteristics of the domestic smartphone are as follows: As we see, IX-MAXI has a potentially more powerful 4-core processor, However, in fact, it is far to the possibilities of dual-core iPhone. Not the last role in this android is played as a built-in operating system.

And he did not differ in stability.

The 4.7-inch IX-MAXI is equipped with an IPS display, such as QHD, with an inferior iPhone resolution (with a 960 matrix for 540 points).

The capabilities of the camera are also nominally similar: the same 8 MPs - the main one, and the frontal even better - 2 MP (against 1.2 Mp iPhone). However, numerous iron and software optimization and software have not passed the gift - the Apple smartphone camera gives photos, the quality of the head is higher than the IX-Maxi.

Autofocus at the Texet apparatus is slow, especially this is noticeable when shooting in the evening, the image stabilization also leaves much to be desired, and the video quality is completely mediocre.

Also, as for such a large display, the battery is clearly weak - 1600 mAh, against 1810 mAh in iPhone. That is, the charge will hardly grab you until the end of the day.

The fact that the phone attracts exactly, it is a pleasant price. It is four times lower than the cost of the iPhone itself. So, on the site of the manufacturer - TeXet, the device is offered for 11,600 rubles (against 44990 rubles). Pretty weighty argument in favor of this model.

In general, the smartphone turned out to be "a la in our answer to Americans." But in fact, the Russian apparatus is inferior in technical plan, but there is something to strive for.

Meizu MX4.

Much more interesting "six-skinned" phone - MX4, represents the Chinese developer Meizu. For a successful performance, he even gained the fame of the Chinese iPhone. The same, familiar to Apple, three types of coloring: Golden, light and dark gray. The first two with a white front panel, the latter - with black. There is a 5.3-inch smartphone than please the buyer.

So, it is equipped with a powerful8-nuclearMT6595 mediatek- platform, and two gigabytes RAM. Great Capacitive Screen - IPS 5.36 "gives a clear and juicy picture, all thanks to the resolution of 1152 to 1920 points. Separate praise deserve particularly thin frames framing the display. Because of this, the phone looks more slightly, and it seems that the image has no boundaries.

He also has "in arsenal" 16, 32 or 64 GB - to choose from, built-in memory. And given the excellent 20.7 megapixel camera - SonyExmor RS, in a bundle with frontal 2 MP - IMX208, it is the 64 GB version that will be most suitable to accommodate all high quality photos. Although the model for 64 GB is still not yet represented on the Russian website of the company.

And sorry, because traditionally Meizu (as, however, Apple does not make slots for memorial cards, so there is no other opportunity to expand the memory volumes - no.

The MX4 battery is sufficiently capacious - a total of 3100 mAh (against 1810 - in the "six", or 2915 mAh - in 6 Plus.) Although, for verification, withstands the day of active use, like iPhones.

The system is controlled by Android. Perhaps it is because of this that energy is so inefficiently consumed, and, in general, a powerful battery quickly sits down.

And again pleased the price, almost half less than that of the "American". So on the Russian website Meizu.ru This phone in the minimum configuration is offered for 23,990 rubles.

So this handsome man can safely "remove" with the prototype. And it is likely for many indicators a comparison will not be in favor of the latter.

Lenovosisley S90.

Sisley S90 phone, from Lenovo, turned out to be very similar to the iPhone. It can be seen that the developers of the Middle Kingdom company decided to receive and their share, from the village of unprecedented Glory "Sixok". These are the following: the same smooth round lines, wide frames, the location of the buttons and the camera.

Posted between "six" of both sizes, five-linked Sisley S90 looks like an intermediate model of the average size, and not by the device from another manufacturer. If it were not for the inscription "Lenovo" - in the center, so immediately and you will not say that it is not an iPhone.In the differences, the first part, which "rushes into the eye" - plastic pad on the top of the smartphone.

Thanks to her, the manufacturer managed to avoid the frames in the field of the chamber on the all-metal building. The most pleasant moment - the camera itself does not rise above the surface of the smooth case.

And the third - two sims are supported.

The phone also works on the basis of Android. However, it is complemented by its own interface developed by Lenovovibe UI. Its "image" on the desktop approaching the imitation of iOS. This concerns the "iron", the brain of the model is the four-core chip Snapdragon MSM 8916 from Qualcomm, a frequency of 1.2 GHz. It provides a quite decent level of device. True, not without fools, characteristic of all devices, running Android (Kitkat).

RAM at VIBE UI twice as much as an iPhone - 2 GB. Embedded memory - 16 GB / 32 GB, no external card opportunities.

The camera is also worthy: the main one is designed for 13 MP, and the frontal - has as many as 8 MP. Both are equipped with their own flashes.

The battery has an optimal capacity - 2300 mAh. Again, hardly abandon the day of active use.

If we talk about colors - typical three colors for smartphones were again proposed. For the model, the model starts from 10460 rubles for the minimum 16 GB version.

ZTE Blade S6.

In winter, 2015, the Chinese company ZTE also presented the next "apple crime". The product got a modest name -Blade S6, and typical "Iphonovsky" design . The dimensions of the imitator are a few exceed the parameters of the iPhone 144 × 70.7 × 7.7 mm, against 138.1 × 67 × 6.9 mm.

The streamlined forms of the five-year aluminum case hides a powerful eight-core processor SNAPDRAGON 615, produced by Qualcomm. It is based on Arm® Cortex ™ A53. The possibilities of RAM is also quite good - 2 GB is quite enough. Built-in memory starts with 16 GB, for further expansion there is an appropriate port for a Micro SD card.

The Blade S6 runs running the Android system, with an adapted user interface - Mifavor.

The device display is quite good, the 5-inch HD, created by INCELL technology, such as IPS (resolution of 1280 per 720 pixels). The S6 battery capacity is 2400 mA / h, so it will work for a day, like all smartphones of this class.

Cameras have the most common characteristics at the moment: the main - production of Sony (IMX214) by 13 megapixel, and the front-line is 5 meters. The quality of the pictures is acceptable.

The device is designed to use two SIM cards, Nano format. It has a GPS receiver, supports LTE, Bluetooth 4.0., As well as Wi-Fi.

It is especially worth noting that ZTE Blade S6 gives a very high-quality sound. To achieve such high results, the manufacturer had to endow their brainchild in a separate audio chip. So music lovers recommended to pay attention to the model.

The price of Blade S6 is $ 250.

HTC One (M8)

Some similarity traic traced in last year's HTC-One flagship (M8). This is a spectacular smartphone, the embodiment of High-Tech.

It is equipped with a high-quality FullHD display (1080 × 1920 points), and a density of 468 PPI, (against 1334 × 750, 326 pixels / inches in iPhone). For a quick response, a sensitive capacitive sensor is answered. If you consider the design, the HTC ONEM8 is the most beautiful all-metal triggering. It looks very stylish and expensive. In this sense, the similarity is not so much in the external image as in the characteristics, and how the device works.

Although in many characteristics M8 surpasses a competitor from Apple. So, HTC is equipped with more powerfulfour-corequalcomm- Snapdrago processorn.801,2,3 GHz. (against dual-core a8 - in iPhone).

Yes, and "RAM" it has more - 2 GB, compared with 1 GB. Basic internal memory parameters - 16/32 GB. Of these, 10/26 GB remain free after installing the software shell. The device has a slot under a Micro SD card, you can enlarge the capacity up to 128 GB.

The camera, with HTC - Ultrapixel's branded technology, has a lot of interesting opportunities that all competitors may be proud of:

First, this is a duet of two main chambers (tz.duocamera), to capture the "depth" of the object being removed.

Secondly - a massive lens with a diameter of 28 mm.

Thirdly - a photo module, with reverse illumination of the matrix.

Front camera, with a wide-angle HDR lens - on 5 megapixel.

M8 is running Android, with adapted HTC Sense 6. The focus of the manufacturer was paid to the quality of the sound. This applies not only to the crystal-pure reproduction of tracks, but also excellent noise reduction during conversations. Moreover, it works in both directions - and to you, and the sound freed from extraneous noises is.

The battery for 2600 mAh will be able to provide a "life" with a smartphone until the end of the day. And in standby and rare calls, two days will last confidently.

The collar range of HTC does not please diversity and quite traditionally: silver, graphite and gold. However, it makes no sense to "paint" stylish metal.

And again you expect a much more pleasant price tag than in the case of iPhone - 28,690 rubles.

Goophone i6.

Another unconditionally similar appearance demonstrates Goophone I6. In this case, the formulation "clone" is even more applied than just like a model. It's funny that she came out in the summer of 2014, ahead of the "original source". As you can see, Apple can do nothing with the leakage of information.

Shoot instead of a branded bee, a steel thumbnail apple, and who will say that this is not an iPhone? All buttons, ports, plastic over the antennas - exactly in-point repeats the Abrey "Sixer" for consupportiveness, even the image of the "apple" shell is recreated - iOS. Although in fact the device operates on the basis of Android. Basic equipment includes a 4-core MEDIATEK 6582 chip, in a bunch with 1 GB of RAM.

The built-in, of course, is clearly not enough - only 8 GB, but it is possible to expand its volumes by inserting the usual microSD card to 32GB. You should not take the greatest way to avoid infinite lags and system hangs (this is not the iPhone, after all).

On the 4.7-inch display of Goophone I6, some graininess is visible due to low resolution -1280 to 720 points.

In the chambers, quite expected, there is nothing outstanding, the front is designed for 5 MP, the main one is 13 megapixel. It even has autofocus, and equipped with LED backlit. What about the quality of the pictures - of course, you capture everything you want, but to the iPhone level, it is very and very far away.

A copy of the iPhone 6 from Goophone with Android is controlled (adapted by JellyBean). As already mentioned earlier, the proprietary images of Apple shell "are written". However, the problems associated with Android instability have not been going anywhere.

Battery capacity is not completely bad - 1800 mAh.

You can choose a model in silver, golden or black colors. A typical rank of prices for the gadget is as follows: 7569.78 - 16435.29 rubles. Most likely, you will have to order it from the Asian markets, because It is on them that the product is focused.

It is clear that Apple's products set the rhythm of market development, hence so many imitation. Let's hope that the turbulent activities of competitors will finally spur the giant to revise the pricing policy.

7 Decent Chinese Alternatives iPhone 7/7 Plus

Spark, hello! My name is Dmitry and I am the founder of a small niche portal about Chinese technician Galagram.com. This is a site where Chinese gadgets are published and reviews. Today I would like to tell you about 7 Chinese smartphones that can make a worthy competition of new apple - iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

In this article we will lower the disputes about what is better than iOS and Android, we will consider smartphones with our own Android shells. And so, let's go!

1 Xiaomi Mi5s Plus

  • two main chambers
  • beautiful MIUI 8 shell
  • affordable price

It's no secret that Apple iPhone 7 Plus has become the first smartphone with two main chambers.

But the Chinese have tried and literally recently released Xiaomi Mi5s Plus Fablet, which also has two main Sony chambers for 13 megapions each and large display with a diagonal of 5.7 "inches.

Two sensors are used in the smartphone: color RGB and C / B, the final photo is obtained high quality, both in color and contrast.

As for other characteristics of the smartphone, it works on the Snapdragon 821 processor (exactly the same as in the new Google Pixel phones) and has 6/128 GB of operational and flash memory in the top modification. It costs MI5S Plus total - 389 dollars In the misery.

2 LEECO LE PRO 3

  • lack of 3.5 mm audio output
  • big battery
  • powerful stuff

Another worthy alternative to Apple iPhone 7/7 Plus from the Chinese company LEECO (former LETV). This device is also equipped with Snapdragon 821 chipset with a clock frequency on the 2.35 GHz core and does not have a 3.5 mm output audio, like the latest flagship from Apple. Headphones in Leeco Le Pro 3 are connected directly to the universal two-way USB Type-C connector.

The thickness of the smartphone is only 7.5 mm, while inside the battery at 4070 mAh. The display diagonal is the same as the senior iPhone 7 Plus - 5.5 "inches with Full HD resolution and density of points per square inch 401 ppi. Leeco Le Pro 3 is running on the basis of Android 6.0 Marshmallow with EUI 5.8 shell. Chinese price for the top version of the smartphone is - 450 dollars.

3 Huawei P9 / P9 Plus

  • two main cameras with Leica optics
  • premium housing

Top 20 iPhone X Clones

After the MWC 2018 mobile technologies exhibition, it became clear that the invasion of the iPhone X clones was coming, which is more like a massive insanity. Most of the manufacturers, especially Chinese, picked up a new trend and are preparing or have already presented their own smartphones with fashionable this season "MONOBROVA".

The models turned out so much that this was revelation for us. For the sake of life, it was decided to collect the most interesting of them to the heap and present you to review.

Conclusion

Apple sets many trends in the smartphone market and after some time they pick up the manufacturers of the second, third and even first echelon - this review is a clear example. We presented far from all models with similar screens that will be available for purchase in the near future, but only chose the most interesting of them.

In the second quarter of this year, Apple for the first time in history reported on the drop in iPhone sales. Tim Cook explained the failure of very simple words: the market was saturated, people and are so secured by smartphones, so sales will fall further. The general director of the company from Cupertino was right: in the third quarter Apple again published a depressive report, saying about 40.4 million IPhone sold against 47 million in a similar quarter of 2015.

Cook could speak again that everyone already bought a gadget, if not for harsh statistics: According to Counterpoint Technology Market Research, 360 million smartphones were sold over the last quarter, and the sales rate grew by 3% compared with last year. Accordingly, the problem is not that all people have telephones. The problem is that people no longer choose Apple.

Threat from the East

Until 2013, the company from Cupertino lived in Paradise. Samsung lost the flagship war in the same gate, and the Chinese were disturbed only by copies. But everything spoiled the flourishing Xiaomi, Zte, Lenovo, Huawei, Oppo and other vendors from the Middle Kingdom.

Previously, Tim Cook assured that his company, despite the relatively small quantitative market share, receives a huge profit due to the high price of smartphones. Now it is impossible to repeat this thesis: if you believe the study of Counterpoint analysts, the proportion of Apple from world mobile devices has decreased from 38% to 29% in just a year. Yes, the Americans continue to take the first line, but from the same report counterpoint it is clear that, first of all, Samsung is approaching Apple (22.7%), and secondly, the Chinese total occupied 23.3% of the market. In addition, it is impossible to discount the Count "Others" - there were noticeable vendors with small bodies from world revenue.

Why don't people choose apple

At the rapid decline in Apple's popularity there are three reasons that are associated with each other: 1) Manufacturers for years have improved iron of their devices to make them better than the iPhone; 2) Google for years grinding Android, periodically borrowing "chips" iOS, and everything works more or less stable to the sixth version; At the same time, the vendors themselves have the opportunity to make their branded shells for an interface that improves the already good system; 3) Android smartphones have greatly fell on a variety of reasons (from the value of iron before the lack of charge per brand). Anyway, for $ 200-300, you can now buy a decent, reliable and current gadget, which will give way to flagships only in trifles.

Of course, budget, but powerful and modern smartphones are sold in Russia. We picked up the five most adequate iPhone competitors with the best price and quality ratio.

LG Nexus 5X.

Price: From 16 thousand rubles per model with 16 GB of memory, from 19 thousand rubles per version with 32 GB of memory.

Main compromise: No memory card slot.

What you need to know:Nexus 5X released in the fall of 2015, but it will not be interconnected: the SNAPDRAGON 808 processor (one of the most stable) is responsible for the speed of work, for the quality of the photos - the flagship 12.3 megapixel module. Advantages Compared to competitors Two: First, the original Android with instant updates (this is Nexus), secondly, a convenient scanner of an imprint on the rear panel. The screen on the top level: 5.2 inches, 424 pixels per inch (iPhone 6S - 326 pixels). The battery capacity of 2700 mA * h is enough for an active work day (taking into account optimization). The hulls are three colors: black, white and mint. Initially, Nexus 5x was sold in Russia for 30 thousands of thousands, but now the price has fallen to adequate values. You can take.

Huawei Honor 5X.

price - quality ". It is four times cheaper than the iPhone 6S Plus, but it is definitely not inferior to the Apple flagship four times. The Honor model can boast a metal case, the fingerprint scanner (before it was the prerogative of expensive devices), a double slot for sim -Cart, a good chamber (13 megapixels, flash) and a capacious battery (3000 mA * h - one and a half day of work). But the most important thing is that in the summer of this year, Honor 5X received an update before Android 6.0 and now functions even better. If you do not confuse A large case (and what else can a smartphone with a 5.5-inch screen?), It is worth thinking about the purchase.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro

While the prices for the new iPhone X beat records, and the fans of the apple company are surprised, why glitches are found in the smartphone for 90 thousand rubles, the Internet project site picked ten alternatives to the anniversary iPhone (from the moment of release of the first iPhone 10 years have passed). As it turned out, overpay for the bilateral apple on the building is not at all. Replane telephones have no less functionality, but cost 3-4 times cheaper.

The advantages include battery life. In practice, the smartphone easily operates two days at normal load, in particular, up to 5-6 hours of screen operation.

Sizes, weight:145.2 x 70.5 x 7.45 mm, 168 grams

Xiaomi MI6 can rightfully recommend those who want the most functional smartphone, but does not want to overpay. For 30 000 rubles you will get a phone level at its essence or. It is clear what he looks different. However, the Xiaomi apparatus received a stylish body with dust and water protection, a colorful screen of 5.15 inches with a fullHD resolution, a very productive processor of the last generation of Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB ROM.

It is also worth noting a good camera (two sensor of 16 megapixels) with an optical zoom. Snapshots are good quality. But the video still loses that Samsung and Apple smartphones are recorded.

In terms of communications and mobile Internet, Xiaomi Mi6 has everything. This is 4G, and two SIM cards, two-band Wi-Fi, NFC, which can be used to contactless payment, navigation GLONASS, GPS and Beidou. "Cold start" navigation on satellites from the car takes only 15-20 seconds, "hot" is even less, it starts almost immediately.

Also Xiaomi Mi A1 is able to make the program blur of the back background of the photo. In addition, the mobile phone works very quickly, it looks very solid and, traditionally for Xiaomi devices, it is quite inexpensive.

The Xiaomi Mi A1 screen is not bad both according to characteristics and in practice. The 5.5-inch diagonal is well combined with Full HD resolution, and the high accuracy of color reproduction pleases the eye. The high-level chip Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 is responsible for the speed.

From 5 to 8%.

The sales program of updated devices is valid for many years - the company sells such devices including through its own online store, for example, in the United States. "As a new one" is previously used by buyers in various countries of the world of Apple devices that pass the factory recovery procedure, replacing the case and the screen before finding a new owner. For example, the phone could exchange according to the Trade-in program in Apple Store stores, or the factory defect could be identified in the gadget - for example, the marriage of the dynamics. The client changed it to the new one. Then the gadget with a defect was transferred to the Apple plant, where this defect was eliminated. After that, such a device also change the screen and case at the factory. After that it is packaged in a box, completed with a new charger and headphones. This is a fully functional device with a complete set of documentation.


Such devices have a factory warranty 1 year. But in order for the client to understand the difference, this is called "restored" - so that it is easy to distinguish from the new one.

In Russia, the first partner of the brand, which implements "as a new" in our country, has become "connected". Retailer devices receives directly from Apple and sells at a price of 25,490 rubles. "M.Video" also sells such models, but under the brand "Restored". The 42.Tut resource offers a detailed comparison of the usual and restored iPhone 5S.

Why buy restored iPhone?

If you want to "try" with minimal cost, but at the same time not to buy a smartphone "from the hands" and get the official warranty, the restored iPhone 5S can be an excellent option. The smartphone is quite powerful even by current standards, there is a good camera and an excellent screen. The only serious disadvantage can be considered only the diagonal of the display. For current standards, 4 inches is not enough.

Are there any visual and other differences compared to ordinary new iPhones?

If only in packing and marking on it. We visually compared the usual iPhone 5S and CPO. Restored smartphones go with RFB label (refurbished). At all pictures below the iPhone 5S CPO is on the left:





Moreover, iPhone 5S CPO is sold in films, just like new:


There is no note on the smartphones themselves.

And how do they work? Updated, do not brake?

Work as well as new. Here the same iron, the same software. As an experiment, we went with a restored iPhone 5S, in parallel using ordinary.

Both smartphones in one day received an update to 9.0.1 (and then 9.0.2), both perfectly worked equally, photographed, surfs on the Internet and behaved in games. No bugs, hangs, reworked for 7 days of testing was not detected. The battery life was approximately the same (in real life objectively compare this parameter is quite difficult). In the smartphone settings you will not see any mention that the iPhone is restored. All as in the usual iPhone 5S.

Judging by the sales, the phrase "restored iPhone" does not scare Russians at all. It remains to hope that with a new part of memory will come and modifications.
