The sixth model of the legendary American device has risen in price since December 1 of the past year. This is probably an incentive for us - ordinary users who, although they love the unique design, powerful hardware and other joys of mobile life, are still not ready to overpay money, as they say, for nothing. Today we will talk about what it can be - an analogue phone of the iPhone 6.
South Korea benefits from the inaccessibility of the American device?
Yeah, Apple hasn't caught on, and we should move on. What company comes to mind when you first think about replacing the iPhone with a cheaper, but not in many ways inferior model? Of course, the South Korean company Samsung. And although the pricing policy already needs to be revised, because the manufacturer unreasonably raises the price solely at the expense of the brand, this is the most real and effective alternative to the sixth iPhone at the moment.
And more specifically,We are talking about the Samsung Galaxy Alpha smartphone, the price of which is 25,000 Russian rubles. What awaits its buyers? First, the inconsistency of the design immediately catches the eye. It seems that the Koreans continue to make flagships, without deviating from traditional moves in terms of recreating the appearance, but there is something catchy in the design of the device, making it really a leader among other analogues.
Are there any changes to the exterior?
Samsung Galaxy Alpha, the price of which tends to fluctuate from time to time (promotions held in mobile phone stores also affect), came out extremely and surprisingly neat, cute. The brilliance of its metal captivates the eye. If we talk about tactile sensations, they are the same as from using the fifth model of an American smartphone. Namely, it is felt that the device is assembled soundly, monolithically, reliably. This also adds a truly real feeling that no one saved on manufacturing materials.
Pros of the device
Among the advantages of this smartphone is the high performance that the internal hardware stuffing has. The list of main pluses includes the camera along with the display. And - oh, God! - indicators of autonomous work. Yes, someone can argue and say that such a concept has been implemented even in the budget segment. Take the good old Grand Prime, which has a 2,600 milliamp-hour battery. However, this argument is more than covered byone indication of the weight and size characteristics. Now there are very few models on the market that, with such subtlety, have such a good energy resource.
Cons of the device
But something must spoil the picture, right? Of course, this is the lack of the possibility of integrating an external drive. The amount of internal long-term memory is 32 gigabytes, and the user will have to calculate their capabilities in such a way that this is enough for their needs. Another disadvantage was the low resolution of the screen. That's really what will not please fans of watching movies. Although everyone has long been accustomed to such shortcomings of the South Korean developer.
Fly Tornado Slim: is it the golden mean?
Analogues of "iPhone 6 Plus" do not have to have a price comparable to it. One has only to look at this phone, which is sold for only 13 thousand rubles, and there is a risk of falling in love with the device, forgetting about American flagships forever. And although the hardware filling does not inspire reliability and respect in all respects, it is still worth taking a closer look at the model. Moreover, the device is defined as belonging to the budget segment of the mobile phone market.
Feature of the model
For its category "Tornado Slim" has a very interesting design. You can immediately brush aside the words that it is similar to other devices manufactured by Asian brands. If we hadthe ability to pass or fail according to certain criteria, then a British smartphone would receive the first mark for the quality of the materials from which it is made. The second offset automatically - for the build quality. Backlash, squeaks or something like that - the user will not detect them.
Flaws
Composition of benefits ends with battery life. And this is again surprising if we take into account the weight and size characteristics. But what are the pitfalls here? Again, we are faced with the fact that the amount of built-in long-term memory cannot be increased. It equals 16 gigabytes. In the segment, you can find a considerable number of models for such a price that are equipped with a module for working in fourth-generation cellular networks, but for some reason it is not here.
I would like a better camera
Let's imagine an expensive painting being sprayed randomly by vandals with different colors of paint. See these colors? So, in our case, this is a very weak camera. It would seem that against the background of the same Asus Zenfone 2 Laser, the British device should produce amazing pictures. But no, alas, that didn't happen. To some extent, it is still possible to call "Tornado Slim" an analogue of the sixth iPhone. However, if you go through all the parameters, the title of honorary analogue can easily be taken away.
HTC One M8: analogue of "iPhone 6"
China, of course, churns out a huge number of models that can be an excellent replacement for the American device. But is it worth it when literallysuch a miracle at hand? Before us is an analogue of "iPhone 6" on "Android" - the Taiwanese HTC One M8. At one time, he received the title of the most stylish smartphone of the year, and this happened in 2014. He looks really amazing. No fragility, no backlash - the device is assembled exclusively from metal. Users who love reliable smartphones will appreciate this feature.
Asian "plane"
Not all analogues of "iPhone 6" can boast of such characteristics. But our model is something assembled from a single sheet of aluminum. Such innovations are used in a limited number of modern smartphones, this does not even need to be proven. In addition, not all analogues of "iPhone 6" are equipped with top-end filling available in this model. What awaits us? First of all, a five-inch screen. There is also a quad-core processor, the cores of which operate at a clock frequency of 2.3 GHz. Support for 4G cellular networks, the ability to integrate external storage, powerful and, most importantly, clean speakers … All this is worth respect.
Conclusion
The list of alternative solutions could go on and on, and it would take a long time. But, as we can see, not all analogues of "iPhone 6" have the same cost as he himself. While they are cheaper, some features remain comparable. Yes, the same British "Tornado Slim" will be able to compete with the sixth generation iPhone, except in terms of exterior. But is it really something? Especially,if we take into account that the device belongs to the budget segment. Although he is not bad compared to his closest competitors, this must be admitted. In general, analogues of "iPhone 6" are very common. And it turns out that the question of which model to give preference to remains open. And the answer to it depends only on us, and no one else.
