The 5 inch Super AMOLED display bears 1900 x 1080 p resolution and we did like the color reproduction, contrast and sharpness of the display panel. The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3, which means that you don’t have to worry about minor scratches. At the heart of the device you will find a 1.7 GHz Octa Core MT6592 chipset coupled with ample 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage. The storage however is not extendable. At the rear side you will get a 13 MP camera capable of Full HD video recording. The camera is supported by LED flash and faired comfortably above average at first glance. At the front you will get a 5 MP shooter for selfies and video chat.

The battery capacity is 2300 mAh, which is at par with what we are seeing in Octa core devices like Canvas Knight and Intex Aqua Octa. Gionee claims that battery will easily last one day with moderate usage.

There lies certain panache in owning the world’s slimmest device and Gionee will do you one better by providing powerful guts inside. You will have to cough up something around 20k to 25K INR for Gionee Elife S5.5. Further details will be revealed at Gionee Launch event at the end of this month.
