The Gionee Ctrl V5 smartphone has been launched in India and it augments the V-series of the Chinese manufacturer further. Like all of its other siblings, the smartphone has been modestly priced at under Rs 13,000 and is here to give some tough competition to a horde of other budget Android smartphones.
Let’s see what the Gionee Ctrl V5 device has in store for potential buyers. Its entire front panel is dominated by a 4.7-inch IPS touchscreen of 960 x 540p resolution and the display is accompanied by a webcam featuring a 2MP lens to allow you to take good quality selfies and make conference calls over the internet. And to fulfill all your other photography needs, the company has provided an 8MP rear camera with LED flash too.
It is based on the Android Jelly Bean 4.2 OS and nothing has been said about a software upgrade for one of the later versions. The Gionee phone’s internal working is carried out under the supervision of a 1.3GHz quad core MediaTek MT6582V processor as well as 1GB of RAM and the SoC even brings a Mali 400 GPU along. You can expect 8GB of expandable onboard storage and a 1800mAh battery in addition to the common connectivity features.
