Telefonos originales vs telefonos clones

Cual es original?



Imagen del video que esta mas abajo


Introduccion


Aqui les hablare sobre las principales diferencias entre un telefono original y un clon


Detectar clones



Para muchos es dificil diferenciar que es original y que no, y mas cuando el producto lo vas a comprar en internet

En la tienda donde lo compres, ya sea fisica o virtual, te diran que el telefono es [un pais que no es China] y que fue comprado en una tienda oficial y si le preguntas si es original, nunca te responderan directamente, solo evadiran la pregunta

Pues no importa donde fue fabricado, lo que importa es la calidad del mismo, por ejemplo, el iPhone es fabricado en China, por Foxconn, ofrece calidad, aunque tiene sobreprecio

Que un producto ofrezca calidad no quiere decir que debe ser caro, un producto considerado de calidad debe ofrecer confianza en la marca, y como minimo debe ofrecer garantia, la mayoria de los fabricantes en el mundo que venden productos, ofrecen al menos un año de garantia limitada, con la garantia como bien lo dice, te garantiza de que el producto deberia de funcionar bien el primer año, en caso de algun problema, siempre y cuando el problema que tenga sea debido a un problema de fabrica (lease las condiciones de garantia, no son iguales en todos los fabricantes y en muchos casos son muy detallistas) y no por causas directas o indirectas del usuario


Como diferenciarlos?


Aqui te digo las principales caracteristicas en que se pueden diferenciar



  • El precio, es el primero, cuando veas que el precio es mucho menor, ya puedes pensar que es un clon
  • El procesador, los clones en su mayoria tienen procesador Mediatek, que comparado con el mundo de los PCs, vendria siendo como un Celeron o hasta quizas un AMD, los Mediatek no son procesadores malos, son lo que pagas por el
  • La pantalla, la luminosidad de la pantalla de los clones es baja, es de menor calidad
  • La camara, que pueden decirte que es de 13MP, la calidad de imagen sigue siendo mala, aunque el tamaño del lente no tiene nada que ver con la calidad de la imagen
  • Sin 4G/LTE, estos en su mayoria no soportan 4G/LTE, hasta hay casos que no soportan 3G, otra cosa que pueden decirte es que H+ es 4G Y NO LO ES!
  • Android, estos telefono calcan el diseño del sistema operativo, hasta la posicion de los iconos, aunque en el sistema y la caja te digan que viene con el Android 6.0, no quiere decir que esa sea la version del sistema, Android es un sistema operativo de codigo abierto y puede ser modificado, puedes hasta modificar la version, en el primer video que esta mas abajo, puedes ver que dice 6.0.1, pero la persona que lo prueba, hace algo que tienen todos los Android, que consiste en ir al menu Acerca del dispositivo y tocar varias veces donde dice Version de Android y te debe salir la imagen de la version del Android, pues en el video le salio que tenia Lollipop y Lollipop es 5.0
  • Virus, como ya dije anteriormente, Android es de codigo abierto, hasta tu mismo puedes modificarlo, agregar o quitar funciones, aplicaciones, temas, sonidos, etc. en estos clones, es muy probable que vengan con virus, adware, malwares, aplicaciones espias, etc., es lo que le ocurrio al fabricante BLU, entre otros, que supuestamente el BLU R1 HD viene con malware, AQUI mas informacion


Ventajas



  • El precio, es una ventaja? bueno si eres de esos que no quiere gastar mucho en un telefono, pues... estas pagando por lo que es, aunque hay mejores telefonos y hasta originales por ese mismo precio


Desventajas



  • La garantia, siendo clones a quien le puedes reclamar la garantia? en su mayoria, la garantia van desde 15 hasta 90 dias y pasado esos dias la tienda no se hace responsable por la garantia, hasta incluso ni intentan ayudarte
  • Repuestos, como consigues repuestos para estos telefonos?
  • Android, si el sistema se te daña, como lo restauras? he visto casos que incluso con el sistema de recovery interno no queda restaurado, donde consigues el sistema con que vino el telefono?


Algunos son clones exactos




Gracias al comentario de Alex Ferrel, hay una pagina china que supuestamente vende el Samsung S7 Edge calcado, una copia 1:1, es decir con el mismo CPU, ROM (memoria interna), misma cantidad de memoria RAM, etc... hasta incluso la caja, tienen un video donde te muestran el telefono y a simple vista parece original, el precio no es malo y hasta ofrecen 18 meses de garantia y segun los comentarios de los compradores, el telefono es bueno, igual manera no lo recomiendo

Algo curioso es que en la pagina dicen que ellos son los fabricantes del telefono y que hay compañias que se hacen pasar por ellos copiando sus productos y descripciones y advierten a sus clientes que tengan mucho cuidado, hasta avisaron a la policia China, que tal?

Tambien Alex comenta de un telefono que esta en MercadoLibre (no colocare el link original, ya que es una subasta y quizas se borre, asi que hice una copia AQUI gracias a archive.org) es el ejemplo exacto de lo que vengo diciendo en el post, es un telefono "Coreano" a pesar que atras dice que es hecho en Vietnam, aunque al parecer el original es hecho en Vietnam, pero no importa lo que diga la caja o la etiqueta del telefono, se supone que es un clon y la idea es engañar, MUCHO CUIDADO!!

El telefono esta en subasta, quiere decir que la persona que ofrecio mas dinero al final de la subasta se lleva el telefono

Lean la descripcion:

Made in Korea de Samsung
Nuestros Equipos son Unicos en Mercado Libre
Modelo Actualizado y Reciente
EQUIPOS ADQUIRIDOS EN TIENDAS SAMSUNG


Para que preguntarle si es original?
 
A veces no entiendo a estos vendedores, que tiene de malo decir que es un clon chino? Cualquiera debe sospechar con tal solo ver el precio

Video donde muestran una comparativa de velocidad entre un Samsung S7 Original vs un S7 clon

Como puedes ver es algo lento en casi todo, hasta en internet





Video que muestra las principales diferencias

video esta en ingles pero no hace falta traducir lo que dice





Que recomiendo?



Como ya dije, existen telefonos por el mismo precio que ofrecen mejor calidad y garantia, en este caso les recomiendo el Moto G4 Play

In several instances, Apple has been late in the party – most features have been found in several Android devices, and that has probably been where the California-based company draws inspiration for what it’s about to do next. Now that it has been established that the new iPhone 7 features water-resistance with an IP67 rating, many would probably test out the waters and see if it can do the trick and survive wetness.

It’s probably common knowledge by now that Apple has ditched the 3.5mm standard for its new line of iPhones, namely the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus. Now, to alleviate this situation, Cupertino is including an adapter to let you hook in your conventional headphones to the Lightning port. However, this will also remove your chances of using it while you charge your phone. That’s a bit counterproductive. Now, if you want to do just that, Apple’s AirPods could be your thing.
