This isn’t an iPhone clone anymore. PMP Today cannot categorize the HiPhone i5 as such with our conscience in tact. What it is is the most beautiful HiPhone we’ve ever seen. I only hope that eventually they’d bring out an Android version. The hardware is, on the scale of awesome between 1 and 10, somewhere between 10.5 and iPhone killer. It’s not just the bronzy metallic exterior that shines like jewelry fit for the Gods, it’s also the two sets of round control pads below the screen that is pretty much all you need for dialing and multimedia navigation. It’s a touchscreen as well, boasting 3-inches of screen space for your stylus. Other features: dual (1.3MP and 5MP) cameras, MP3 and MP4 playback, dual-SIM stand-by, JAVA and FM radio. Only $148 from Chinagrabber.

The HiPhone i5 is a genuinely beautiful gadget and thin at 11mm. Read on for more photos.
