Comparisons Featuring Gionee P8 Max

Short Review

  • The Gionee P8 Max features a solid build with dimensions of 154.4 x 76.6 x 9.2 mm and a weight that feels substantial in hand.
  • Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 267 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6737T chipset with a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 3GB of RAM, which handles everyday tasks adequately but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The rear camera is a 13 MP unit with f/2.2 aperture, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while an 8 MP front camera serves for selfies.
  • The battery capacity is 3150 mAh, supporting 10W charging, which is sufficient for moderate daily use.
  • Running on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) with Amigo 3.2, the software experience is somewhat dated but functional.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, although it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
  • The phone is available in Gold, Gray, and White colors, providing some aesthetic choices.
  • Notably, it includes a headphone jack, catering to users who prefer wired audio.
  • Overall, the Gionee P8 Max is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without standout features.
