Looking on the design and the specs, there is nothing new on the JJRC H5C. It's only a rebranded Syma X5C. The only changes on this quadcopter is the logo on the top of the aircraft and the remote controller.
Probably they will drop the price by a few dollars to be more attractive than the Syma model.

Syma X5C Battery Hack guide
After one of my X5C's battery died, I had two options: to order a new one (and wait for it 3-4 weeks) or hack a generic LiPo battery to work with the Syma X5c quadcopter, typically for me. I chose both.
