Beautiful couple of HDC Galaxy S3

                                                   

  It’s no surprise that Chinese manufacturers have scrambled to produce a counterfeit version of Samsung’s Galaxy S3 less than two months after the phone’s release. In fact, it was only a matter of time. The highly coveted device - the real deal, that is - has racked up sales in the millions, but for those with a smaller budget, the HDC Galaxy S3 is likely to fool all your friends. At first glance, the HDC version is virtually indistinguishable from the Samsung handset, though a closer look reveals that it’s quite a bit thicker.
                                                                       

The HDC Galaxy S3 fake falls flat spec-wise, as well. It supports a 4.7in TFT display with a resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, a 8-megapixel rear camera, and a 0.3-megapixel front-facing camera. The HDC Galaxy S3 runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread on a 1GHz processor with 512MB of RAM, and weighs in at 160g.

The real Galaxy S3, on the other hand, ships with a 4.8in, 1,280 x 720 pixel display and an 8-megapixel camera that’s been lauded for its quality. The device also has a secondary 1.9-megapixel front-facing camera. It’s got Android 4.0 ICS and is powered by a quad-core 1.4GHz CPU with 1GB of RAM. It’s a fair bit lighter at 133g.

The HDC Galaxy S3 is clearly an inferior device, but its upper hand is in its pricing - just $183 (Free shipping) to purchase the phone sim-free. You can read more about our reviews of the HDC Galaxy S3.
