When it comes to drawing design “inspirations” for a smartphone, Apple holds the fancy of plenty of smartphone manufacturers – Xiaomi, Micromax, Lava and, how can we forget, Samsung. But if there was an award for the best Apple copycat, the Lenovo Sisley S90 would be a sure shot winner.
Not only has it blatantly copied the design of the iPhone 6, but has also gone one step further to copy the promotion shots that were used to market Apple’s latest flagship.

Lenovo has admitted to The Independent that “there are external similarities, but considering the product design lifecycle of any smartphone – at least a year in planning and prototyping it’s not possible to copy a design so quickly.”
The phone sells only in China has the similar rounded edges, edge-to-edge screen and even the wallpapers are the same. The phone offers a 5-inch HD display, 16GB of internal storage, dual-SIM and NFC connectivity and a 1.2GHz quad-core processor.
