Unbelievable! XiaoMi Phone 2 Has Been Cloned As Well

(GSM Insider) - Unbelievable! XiaoMi Phone 2 Has Been Cloned As Well.

Only those famous devices like Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and Apple iPhone 5 have cloned devices in China? The answer is no.

XiaoMi is a Chinese smartphone brand that rose to the international market recently. Huawei and ZTE are on the top of Chinese brands but XiaoMi definitely not far from the throne. This is because the concept of XiaoMi is similar to the Apple.

According to sources from China, there are manufacturers that produced the cloned XiaoMi Phone 2 and selling it in the market. Those people that running the online stores at Taobao are the customers to those cloned XiaoMi Phone 2. After they purchased the cloned XiaoMi Phone 2, they will sell it at Taobao. 

Those sellers at Taobao stated that the XiaoMi Phone 2 was obtained from special channel. But the real cause is those XiaoMi Phone 2 devices in the market are the clone edition. You can hardly spot the difference with raw eyes. 

Perhaps the main reason why this happened because XiaoMi Phone 2 suffered shortages. There is a huge demand in the Chinese smartphone market but the XiaoMi Phone 2 only has limited stocks. It is impossible to fulfill the huge demand when the XiaoMi Phone 2 is cheaper than those foregin brands' devices.

Photo from Ultrapixel Camera of HTC One before zoom

Zoomed in photo from Ultrapixel Camera. 

From the first set of photos, the Ultrapixel Camera of HTC One successfully took the photo which is wider than the Exmor RS of Sony Xperia Z.
