    Hi guys,
    Ilo-launch palang yan dito sa manila.. Ang dinig ko sa isang mall bandang north area.. Anyway, it really looks nice.. And historical phone, ano kaya ang tinatago pa nyang feature? Balita ko madami itong kakayanan na kung hindi mo xa susubukan or hindi mo aalamin ang feature benefits nya.. Hndi m malalaman.. May gionee na ko. 3 iba ibang model… Ang masasabi ko lang , very reasonable to choose among other brand.. Lalo n yung e7 nila sobra as in sobrang ganda ng camera, made fir shooting talaga.. Dinaig ang 20 mp ng experia b un o nokia.. Daig ng 8mp ang 13 mp front cam ng monkey king.
    Ooppps one more thing snapdragon800 din chipset nya. Which carried the amigo 2.0 more smooth. And the s5.5 also has 2.0 amigo rom. Pag itoy nag ka update sa kitkat.. Di nko magdadalawang isip bibili ako tag isa kami ng wife ko.. For now isa muna.. Hehehe sana ilaunch na.. Gionee addict!

      @ JT: nakalagay naman sa initial post ‘yung facts di po ba?… eto po:

      “It will be available for pre-order in China on March 18 while the LTE variant will be available in June.”

      meaning… the one available to them (3/18 for pre-order) uses mt6592 chip… yung lte variant (june availability) will use mt6595
