October 28, 2012 - MyPhone is on the edge of releasing its biggest and most powerful Android smartphone to date, but the only problem is there's no information about it on the web. Luckily, I stumbled upon a teaser photo of the MyPhone A919 Duo from noypigeeks.com and after some searching on the web, I found out that the MyPhone A919 Duo have the same specs and overall physical appearance with that of the i-mobile IQ 5 of Thailand, Beidou Chi K from China and Micromax Superfone Canvas 2 A110, one of the highly anticipated phablets from Indian telecommunications company Micromax! Won't believe it? Try looking at the photo below and see how similar the MyPhone A919 Duo with that of Micromax A110.
