  • Its 5.45-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels with a pixel density of approximately 295 ppi, although it lacks HDR support.

  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone is available in Gold, Red, and Blue color options.
  • Overall, the Gionee F205 is a basic smartphone suitable for everyday use.
  • Its build quality and design are commendable, but performance and camera capabilities are limited.
