Gionee Elife S5.1 Review

Score: 53 / 100

Gionee Elife S5.1 is a mid-end Android phone launched back in the year 2014, provisioned with an extremely powerful 1.7 GHz Octa-Core processing unit, a 4.8-inches screen, and 2 cameras, an 8 MP back facing camera and a 5 mega-pixels front facing camera. Is that all? Not at all, it's just the tip of the iceberg.

This phone has a beautiful design, with a thickness of just 0.2 inches. Even though this phone just has 5.5" long, it is still able to fit a a 4.8 inches screen. Gionee has made a really good job making this phone weight only 3.44 oz. Gionee just offers this phone in color 16 777 216.

Gionee sells this cellphone with a very fast 1.7 gigahertz Octa-Core CPU, packed into a MediaTek MT6592 chip and only 1 GB of RAM which is a little bit low for such a powerful phone. A nice advantage of this cellphone is its quite large 8 GB internal memory and though it doesn't count with an SD memory slot, it should be enough to store a couple hundred applications, although it probably wouldn't be suitable if you are planning to install some of the largest games currently available.

Gionee designed the Gionee Elife S5.1 with a spectacular 4.8" screen, and a 720 x 1280 (HD) resolution, which makes it impossible to even see the pixels composing the screen.

This phone features two cameras, an 8 megapixels back facing camera and a 5 megapixels front camera. This cellphone also films Full HD 1920x1080 videos.

This cellphone includes Wi-Fi connectivity (which it can share with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot). The Gionee Elife S5.1 doesn't have a SIM card, because it doesn't support GSM networks.

The Gionee Elife S5.1 counts with a 2050 mAh long lasting Li - Ion replaceable battery that can keep this cellphone running for many hours, although you may need to charge it after some heavy use.

This cellphone also features a handful of cool features like Bluetooth, GPS Navigation and Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

When you buy this cellphone you also receive Travel Charger , User Guide, Battery, Flip Cover/Transparent Protection Cover, Screen Protector and Data Cable.
