Here’s a better look at the screen showing the hardware configuration. According to the list it features a Marvell PXA310 chip clocked at 1GHz, and 2GB of DDR memory.



Now, leaving aside why a smartphone running Windows Mobile 6.1 (which is also what the HTC Diamond2 runs) would need 2GB of RAM, a quick glance at the Marvell product pages reveals that the PXA310 chip, which is indeed targeted at 3G phones and PDAs, only runs at up to 624MHz. So, unless the shanzhai manufacturer has done some fancy overclocking, the 1GHz clock speed seems doubtful (the HTC phone itself runs a Qualcomm MSM7200A chip at 528MHz, so potentially the clone is still packing more raw processing power).

Other features between the two phones are similar with both sporting 3.2” WVGA screens and identical dimensions and weights.
