GSM in itself is not the problem. Its which GSM bands it uses. Would you please provide a link to which GSM bands this phone uses? Thanks!
FrequencyCheck.com is more user friendly, but doesn't have info for the Aqua Ace yet. However their other offerings mostly look like they'd be limited to EDGE or GPRS in America (except for the Aqua Super TD-LTE Dual SIM, which might work on Sprint LTE but probably won't be on their "list".)
But again, I add the caveat that I'm just not that familiar with decoding this info and I'd really like to be wrong.

As I said, it's
a) a rumour
b) claims to be based on, not a clone
Let's be clear here, Intex originally suggested/confirmed that their Sailfish phone would have an Other Half, and if this is to be the case none of their existing models would be appropriate.

Judging from the quick flash on Saarnio interview, it does look like being based on Jolla's reference design rather than any existing Intex design, if the prototype device was not "camouflaged" in some way (which I doubt). The screen captures in reviewjolla-page show these details:
...which resemble the mock up pics shown in suomimobiili and some other sites, and reference platforms that were shown in MWC 2015. The same "sandwitch"-design, but maybe a little slimmer.
Another possibility of course is that the prototype device was completely different from upcoming phone or phones. But I doubt it...

Current rumour (to the point that Wikipedia have it listed) is that it'll actually be based on the Intex Cloud Flash

Too many people are getting their hopes up about this device.
