We already knew that the Gionee Elife S5.5 which happens to be the world’s thinnest smartphone will be introduced soon and now we can confirm that the Chinese manufacturer has chosen MWC as the platform to unveil it. The device is currently being exhibited at the expo in Barcelona, Spain.
This smartphone measures merely 5.5 millimeters in thickness, hence the name. On this extremely slim form factor, the phone manages to accommodate a 5-inch Super AMOLED plus touchscreen which is said to be capable of rendering visuals in full HD 1920 x 1080p resolution. Alongside the display, the company has placed a 5MP webcam which has an ultra-wide angle of 95 degrees. It should help users click full body selfies and self-group shots.
As for the primary camera, it is situated on the rear side and makes the most of a 13MP lens. You can use it for capturing high-quality images and videos. When it comes to multitasking properties, the Gionee smartphone should be able to support more than a couple of apps at the same time as a true octa core processor sprinting at 1.7GHz rests within the confines of the handset. It draws power from a battery of 2300mAh capacity.
The Gionee Elife S5.5 phone’s price is reportedly tagged at $370 and it may come to India sometime in March this year. Its LTE variant is also in the offing.
