The device comes in a thin 5.1 mm shell comprising both glass and metal. The handset has a 4.8-inch 720p display and runs on 1.2 GHz quad core Qualcomm snapdragon processor supported by 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of built-in storage. The device has 8 MP rear camera and LTE connectivity.
Under the hood, one can expect a quad-core 1.2GHz processor coupled with 1GB RAM. On the camera front, there’s an 8-megapixel rear snapper and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. The device also gets 16GB onboard storage. All of this will be fuelled by a 2,050mAh battery.
Before launching its brand in India in the first quarter of 2013, Gionee used to be an original device manufacturer (ODM) for many Indian brands. The Gionee Elife 5.5 is currently a popular device which is already one of the sleekest phones available in the market.
