This 4GB/64GB phone costs just Rs 17,000, and it's not a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

Don’t be surprised when you look at newer smartphones released in the future. Yes, it will soon be pretty confusing to spot the brand since smartphones today are almost identical looking as brands have no more room but to simply copy the styles of different smartphones. Meet the Elephone, a Chinese smartphone brand that presently has a pre-sale offer for its new series, the S7.

The Elephone S7 not only copies the name, but also the design from the Samsung flagship. With a bezel-less curved edge design, the Elecphone S7 comes in two variants, a 5.2-incher and a 5.5-incher.

On the hardware front, it surely does not match the Korean flagship. With a Helio X20 deca-core processor, the Elephone S7 does pack a punch with additional support form 4GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage. The hardware is complimented with a 5.2 and 5.5-incher full JD LCD display and a 13MP front and 5MP rear camera.

Other features include blue light filter, 3000mAh battery, Android 6.0 operating system FM radio support, 4G LTE support and a 7.6mm thick body with a weight of 148g. The device is presently available on pre-order for $239.90 for the 5.5-incher and will start shipping from December 7.
