If Jony Ive recently expressed his anger at Xiaomi's attitude in copying the iOS 8 interface, in Cupertino they must be quite upset after seeing that Lenovo has launched a mobile phone with Android whose Appearance is similar to the iPhone 6.
Lenovo Sisley, which is the name of this clone of the iPhone 6, aims to improve the weaknesses of Apple's mobile. For example, its thickness is 6,9 millimeters but the rear camera does not stand out, a design issue that makes us think that its quality, both at the sensor and lens level, will not be up to the standards seen in the Iphone 6.
The terminal housing is also made of aluminum so they have also had to manage to integrate the different antennas in the visible part of the mobile. In this case, the upper part of the Lenovo Sisley has a small plastic cover and we can also see a band at the bottom, a slightly different solution from Apple's that opts for symmetrical bands both at the top and at the bottom. bottom, thus avoiding having to resort to plastic.
The screen of this copy is of five inches with 720p resolution, slightly lower than that found in the 6-inch iPhone 4,7. In the upper and lower frames we have the 8 megapixel front camera and the touch buttons for the basic Android functions. The rest of the specifications have not leaked data but everything indicates that it is a mid-range mobile.
I honestly believe that Lenovo has no need to resort to this type of copying as it manufactures quality products. It can be subtly copied and can cheeky copy as is this case. In any case, it seems that the Lenovo Sisley will remain in Chinese territory and will not be marketed in more territories.
That disgusts real people ... They adjective themselves, needlessly.
And for the record, I just bought my iPhone 6 plus 128GB and I have an iPhone from 2G. But I really mean it, with these articles only absurd controversies are created, or so I think.
Let's see ... Why do you say that Lenovo makes a copy of the iPhone? And not the other way around, how do you know that Lenovo had not designed that mobile before Apple, who says that Lenovo needs to copy the iPhone? I, who have been with the iPhone for years and have seen and noticed its design trajectory, honestly, on this occasion, It seems more than iPhone 6 it looks like other mobiles than others to Apple, so it is more normal that mobiles resemble each other, unless some of them give it to make it round ... And the camera, have you tried Lenovo's? that of the iPhone 6 Plus is a marvel, I see it and I love the slow motion ... but because the Lenovo one must be worse, why doesn't it stand out? come on ... please, try both and then we can give our opinion, although I think that the iPhone 6 will be better, I cannot grasp that it is better because it stands out, it is absurd. Lenovo is also a large brand of a holding company of US and Hong Kong companies.
Hello Juan, the Lenovo is a mobile of Midrange that has sought media impact by being a carbon copy of the iPhone 6. They did not want to get a better mobile than the iPhone 6, they wanted to get a visually identical one to appear in the middle of the world and look, they have succeeded.
Making a mobile so thin and incorporating a good camera are opposite things, but reflexes or cameras with aps-c sensors would have reduced their dimensions many years ago, but the optics are what they are and the sensors offer what they offer. In a thickness of 6,9 millimeters, incorporating an optics and a sensor can only result in a loss of quality in the final photograph and that Apple usually adjusts the interior space of its devices quite a bit.
In the market there are many mobiles that have a protruding camera and nobody says anything. Right there are the Samsung and the Galaxy S5, a mobile with a very good camera that cannot be despised either.
Juan, Lenovo has copied you because Apole took out the phone first and you also have the design patents. The company that has the patents is the official designer and therefore that someone takes out a similar phone without the design patents is automatically a copy and a crime because they use the work of others without paying them to make a profit. It is as if I write a book and in a month you take out a book with another name in which almost all the content is the same and the information you give in that book you do not say where you got it from, implying that all this is knowledge own when it is not.
Well, sorry, but if they had infringed those patents, be clear that this mobile would not go on the market, so, it will not be as "copy" as you point out.
What they use to make a profit, ahem, there are a lot, but a lot of lawsuits for the reason of patents and sentences that require millionaire compensation. And to remember, it does not sound to you that the iPad name was registered in the name of a Chinese company, and Apple came to the iPad 2 and without judgment, and finally had to buy the rights.
I totally agree with Juan. rather it seems that Apple has followed the trend of others and get rid of its own by abandoning the aesthetic line that we were accustomed to.
Well, for me it is better designed than the apple one…. at least with the naked eye
the iphone 6 camera is a fudge the projecting frame ,,
and the two back stripes look like a fake adidas tracksuit from the flea market gypsies
I dont know…. I don't say that anymore
Regarding tastes and appreciations, each one will have their own, the iPhone 6 seems prettier to me, even though it seems to me a mobile without "magic", a kind of routine industrial design. The same beauty that a screw or a nut can have, well that. But the Lenovo seems uglier to me.
If you knew something about what a camera really is, you would realize why the hell one that does not protrude in the same width of the mobile must necessarily be worse. Today, of course. Well, if for you a 10 mpx camera is better than an 8 mpx, then it is very likely that the Lenovo is better than the iPhone, yes. But I suppose that that of the mpx you will have already surpassed it for at least 10 years, right?
Nacho to see if you can answer me to this. If Apple has the design of the iPhone 6 registered, I could report Lenovo. It is so true,
