General Mobile GM5 Review

Score: 53.6 / 100

General Mobile GM5 is a decent phone, with a quite big 5-inches screen, a good performance Quad-Core processing unit ticking at 1200 megahertz, a 13 MP back camera and a 5 MP front facing camera.

General Mobile decided to design this phone using a powerful Quad-Core processing unit clocking at 1.2 GHz, included in the Qualcomm chip and a large 2 GB RAM memory. A good aspect of the General Mobile GM5 is the 16 GB quite big internal storage and while it doesn't have an external memory slot, it is enough to install a couple hundred applications, although it probably wouldn't be suitable if you are fan of the largest games currently available or taking tons of pictures and videos.

General Mobile appears to have forgotten about weight optimization in this 5.64 oz cellphone. This cellphone is incredibly thin and stilized, with a thickness of just 0.37 inches. This cellphone just has 5.53 inches long, but it still manages to hold a 5" display. General Mobile is offering this phone in color 16 777 216.

General Mobile packed this phone with a nice 5" screen, and a resolution of 720 x 1280 (HD), which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels forming the screen.

The General Mobile GM5 is equipped with two cameras, a 13 megapixels back facing camera and a 5 megapixels front camera. It is capable of shooting Full HD 1920x1080 videos.

The General Mobile GM5 provides Wi-Fi connection (and it can be provided to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), LTE 4G high speed connection and also HSPA+ internet connection, that is a bit slower 4G network and 3G fast connectivity, over HSDPA technologies. The General Mobile GM5 doesn't have a SIM card, because it doesn't support GSM services.

The General Mobile GM5 uses a 2500 mAh long lasting Li - Polymer replaceable battery that provides this cellphone a great battery life.

The General Mobile GM5 also includes a handful of useful features such as Bluetooth and GPS Geolocation, and some sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This cellphone is the correct option for you if you need a phone to mostly use social networks and internet browsing.
