HTC One not yet announced, but it's already been cloned in China
The HTC One aka the HTC M7 is about to finally make its official debut in mere hours today, but just as we’re getting ready to see it, Chinese phone maker GooPhone has already managed to replicate it in its newest GooPhone One.

The GooPhone One is an almost exact copy of the HTC One, at least of those alleged leaks with a dual front speakers.

Of course, the GooPhone creation will be much cheaper and possibly running on MediaTek’s new quad-core MT6589 processor. The GooPhone One is likely to run on the Lewa OS skin on top of Android and the device will support dual-SIM connectivity.

The screen is expected at the same 4.7 inches but we doubt it’d be 1080p. The GooPhone One is quite real and shows just how quick Chinese phone makers have gotten. And while previously we’d easily write off white box manufacturers phones as junk in most cases, given a quite capable cheap processor like the MT6589 those devices do start to look justified, don’t you think?
