Short Review

  • The Gigabyte GSmart Maya M1 features a compact design with dimensions of 136 x 67 x 9.7 mm and a weight of 150.5g, available in brown and two-tone color options.
  • Its 4.5-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 245 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6577 chipset with a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and 4GB of RAM, delivering modest multitasking capabilities.
  • The 8 MP rear camera captures decent images but lacks optical image stabilization and can record video at 480p.
  • A 2 MP front camera is available for selfies, though it is limited in quality.
  • The 1700 mAh battery offers basic power without fast charging or wireless capabilities, which may require frequent recharging.
  • Running on Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated, lacking modern features and updates.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device includes a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack, catering to basic connectivity needs.
  • Overall, the GSmart Maya M1 is a simple smartphone suitable for essential functions but falls short in performance and features compared to contemporary devices.
