Gionee
Philippines that they currently have the 3g-capable model so far as the LTE
version will be up for grabs soon. The demo unit that you see in our pics is
having the 32 GB ROM and 3 GB RAM.
The
UI is quite unique to us. One, you have to swipe upward to unlock the screen.
On pressing and holding the home button, the running apps are in horizontal
mode. The unit also has 2 camera apps, the stock camera and the Charm Cam.
We
like the UI of the stock cam as there are capacitive turn dials that you can customize. We also like one of
the camera features which is the sport option which it helps when your subject
is a moving object. On the pic, we took a picture of a very fast moving empty
water bottle in wave motion. Based on our pic, our subject is very clear. We
were not sure yet if it has optical image stabilization but this feature helps
especially when you’re in a rock concert. You want to take a pic of your favorite
band vocalist but he/she is moving constantly.
On our
Antutu benchmark, Gionee Elife E7 got a
score of 33965 which was impressive as the true power of Snapdragon 800
processor showed up.
The
package consists of the phone, 1 ampere USB
charger, micro USB to USB cable, 3 NFC tags, warranty and instruction
manual, USB OTG cable, screen protector, earphones, universal stand and a back
protective case
Here is our sample rear camera shot, we used the stock camera app, normal settings and using the full 16 MP
And here's the sample front camera shot using the stock camera app, normal settings and at 8MP
The
3g version of this device costs P24,500. The price of LTE model will be
available soon
