Gionee’s Thinnest Smartphone Lands in PH

Listen to article

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.

jellybean talaga? How’s Gionee’s reputation on system updates? Can buyers expect a system update to Android L? or even Kitkat?

Can you confirm that it really runs an SD400 SoC and not an MT6592 like most online sites and youtube videos claim. Thanks. I think 13k sounds reasonable if it runs an SD400, not to mention an Amoled screen, LTE and a very thin form factor.

Mukhang ibang version ito actually. Kasi may LTE, tapos masmalaki ng konti ang battery, Snapdragon CPU at Adreno GPU, pero 4.3 Jellybean lang. Yung nasa GSM Arena page eh walang LTE, pero 4.4.2 KitKat na, 2050mAh ang battery, at naka MediaTek CPU at Mali GPU.
