its not a 1:1 shell whilst it is very close to a stock ninty one its not an 100% identical clone, It could however be a generic "clone" shell that's used for other clones.
I understand you.
For K101, it used the case from Gemei A330. You can said K101 is cloning Gemei A330. But it is not 100% clone like you said. The manufacture had added some thing that Gemei A330 and Original GBA SP do not have. For example, you can find the color is black in the middle "round case" on K101. At the same time, the d-pad, buttons are not the same but with a soft hand feeling.
Why the manufacture will not keep the same design like the original GBA SP but use the Gemei A330's case? I think it is for a better control experience on playing GBA games. You got a wider control board( the case of Gemei A330 is wider than the original GBA). At the same time, the design of the d-pad and buttons are more suitable for gamers like you guys to play games. In one word, it is to improve the gaming experience while using such design.
For K1, it is for gamers who are keen on the original GBA's design. I know some one here who can not forget the original GBA. And now they have two choices for GBA!
Why the currently K1 not adding the RCT? Because the space inside the mother board is limited, the manufacture can not find enough space to install this chip. Why not headphone port in K1? Because K1 use the design from the original GBA SP.
Currently, we are now collecting you guys' idea on giving a good name for K101- the folded K1 here:
