Lusting after the gold iPhone 5s but love Android too much? Fear not as Goophone is here to fulfil your wishes. The Chinese company, known for releasing cheap clones of the iPhone running Android, has released its latest handset – the Goophone i5S.

As you must have guessed, the i5s is an exact replica of the recently released iPhone 5s. While the UI is a blatant copy of iOS 7, the device runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean underneath, which can be confirmed with the existence of the Play Store running on the device. And no, the device does not feature TouchID or a fingerprint sensor in any form. (https://safeanimalshelter.com/)

The full specs of the Goophone i5s are as follows -:

  • 4-inch qHD (540*950) screen
  • 1.2GHz quad-core Mediatek processor
  • Aluminium body
  • 8MP rear camera
  • 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage space
  • Android 4.2 Jelly Bean

Goophone will also be offering users the option to turn off the iOS theme and instead enjoy the stock Android UI on their fake iPhone 5s look-alike as well. Unlike the iPhone 5s, which will cost you both your kidneys, the Goophone i5s can be purchased for only $249.99.

While Apple lovers won’t be pleased with Goophone’s cheap iPhone 5s knockoff, the company does deserve credit for releasing such a similar looking clone of the 5s.
