Gionee’s Thinnest Smartphone Lands in PH

Lazada Philippines

Three months after its official debut, the Gionee Elife 5.1 has finally reached our shore and is looking to sweep local consumers off their feet with its ultra-thin frame.

With a frame that only measures 5.15mm thick, the Gionee Elife S5.1 once hailed as the world’s thinnest smartphone for a short period of time, before it was dethroned by the Oppo R5 a month later.

This LTE-enabled handset features a 4.8-inch S-AMOLED IPS display with 1280×720 resolution and runs on quad-core processor made by Qualcomm with 1GB of RAM and an Adreno 305 graphics processing unit.

A good portion of the Gionee Elife S5.1’s non-expandable 16GB internal storage is occupied by a skinned version of Android Jellybean version 4.3, complete with the company’s own user interface called Amigo.

Hands-on with the Gionee GPad G5

We just got from the Gionee press event earlier today at SM Megamall where they opened their first concept store in Metro Manila, and we got our hands on the newly-launched GPad G5.

GioneeGpad5-1

Gionee’s new phone, as we have mentioned yesterday, is a device built with Dragontail glass, powered by a hexa-core processor, and packs a 2,400mAh battery. There’s hardly any heft at all; the phone is very light to the hands.

GioneeGpad5-2

Colors are presented vividly on the display. The OS is definitely running on Android 4.4 KitKat, but it has a custom skin that take cues from iOS design such as the Gaussian blur on home screen folders and app menu. Transitions were fast, and opening apps are a breeze.

Buttons are arranged conveniently for one-hand use. The volume rocker and the power/lock key are all found on the right side of the phone. The headphone jack is located on top, and the microUSB port at the bottom. It’s also noteworthy to say that the top and bottom portions are made of metal.

The other side of the phone reveals its 8 megapixel snapper and flash, and dual Yamaha speakers. The back plate is made up of plastic in a matte finish, which adds a really nice touch to the front display.

Overall, this phone is lightweight beauty. It’s like Gionee saying that you don’t need octa-cores to be able to have a decent phone, as six is enough.

Gionee GPad G5 specs:
5.5-inch HD IPS display @ 1280 x 720 resolution
Dragontrail glass
1.5GHz MT6591 hexa-core processor
ARM Mali450 GPU
1GB ROM
8GB storage
