$120 Fake iPhone X With a Home Button
**Unboxing and First Impressions: iPhone A10 Clone**
As I take a look at this phone, I can see that it's a clone of the iPhone 10, but with some notable differences. The first thing I notice is the lock screen, where I have access to toggles for the flash, which unfortunately doesn't seem to work as expected. However, I do appreciate the home bar and swipe-up gesture to switch between screens. This gives me a sense of familiarity with the iPhone interface, even if it's not an authentic Apple product.
**Benchmarking: A Disappointing Experience**
Next, I decide to put this phone through some benchmarking tests to gauge its performance. Running Geekbench, I'm underwhelmed by the results - a score of 2.8 and only 3 gigabytes of RAM is not exactly what I'd call impressive. Comparing it to other clones in the market, I notice that the processor is old and cheap, with a GPU that's less than stellar. This translates to slower performance and potential lag. The iPhone 10, on the other hand, boasts a significantly better score, thanks to its more modern hardware.
**3D Benchmark: Inconsistent Results**
Moving on to the 3D benchmark test, I'm disappointed to see that it failed to provide an accurate representation of the phone's GPU capabilities. This is likely due to running a 32-bit version of Android, which explains why the results are so low. The processor, too, seems ancient and cheap, with a score of 13.3 megapixels on camera - I'm not sure if I believe this value, but we'll have to test it out further.
**Display: A Surprisingly Good Experience**
Despite my initial doubts about its display quality, I'm pleased to find that the phone's screen is actually quite good. The resolution of 640x1280 is decent, and I appreciate the fact that it doesn't suffer from the same issues as other clones in terms of brightness and color accuracy.
**Camera: A Noteworthy Improvement**
Speaking of cameras, this iPhone A10 clone actually surprises me with its quality. While not perfect, it does a better job than many of its competitors. The camera alone is a huge improvement over those I've tested before, with much sharper images and less motion blur. Additionally, the phone's dual-lens camera (although technically just a single lens) captures decent details and colors, making it a more enjoyable experience overall.
**Speaker Quality: Not So Bad**
One feature that catches my attention is the speaker quality - surprisingly good, considering this is a clone of an iPhone with a relatively modest budget. While not as loud as some high-end speakers, the sound is clear and crisp, with decent bass. It's also nice to see a headphone jack, which is a common feature missing from many smartphones.
**Conclusion: Worth Considering at $120**
After putting this phone through its paces, I'd say it's worth considering at $120 - especially for those who are looking for a more affordable alternative to the iPhone 10. While it may not be perfect and could have been designed better, it does offer some notable improvements over standard clones in the market. That being said, there are undoubtedly better options available, but this phone is still a solid choice for those on a budget or who want an iPhone-like experience without breaking the bank.
**Ripping Apart the Phone: What's Inside**
Finally, I decide to tear this phone apart and take a look at what's inside. The battery is quite large, which doesn't surprise me given its impressive performance in tests. However, it's clear that the phone has taken some design liberties - the back of the phone is made from vinyl rather than plastic, and the screws are pentalobe, just like the iPhone 10. Inside, I find a clean design with a single speaker, which suggests that Apple may have had some influence on this clone's hardware.
**Camera Test: Single Lens, But Still Decent**
I'm excited to test out the camera, which I've heard is supposed to be a key feature of this phone. While it's technically just a single lens, I'm pleased with the results - the image quality is decent, and colors are more accurate than many of its competitors. The camera does struggle with some aspects, like handling snow and sticking, but overall, I'd say it's a big improvement over what I've seen before.
**Front-Facing Camera: Tiny But Still Functional**
A feature that caught my attention is the front-facing camera - small at 2-3 megapixels, but surprisingly capable. I'm happy to see that it can capture decent details and colors, especially when compared to its competitors. While it may not be the most impressive camera out there, it's a nice bonus feature for those who want to take selfies or record video calls.
**Design: A Tall and Wasteful Phone**
One aspect of this phone that I'm less than thrilled about is its design - specifically its height and width. The phone feels tall and awkward in the hand, which may be an issue for some users. Additionally, the overall build quality could be improved with more attention to detail and better materials.
**Conclusion: A Solid Choice at $120**
Overall, I'd say that this iPhone A10 clone is a solid choice for those looking for a more affordable alternative to the iPhone 10. While it may not have all the bells and whistles of its authentic counterpart, it offers some notable improvements in terms of camera quality, performance, and overall design.
