Comparisons Featuring Gionee S6

Short Review

  • The Gionee S6 features a sleek design with dimensions of 151.9 x 74.6 x 6.9 mm and a weight of 147g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
  • It sports a 5.5-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent color reproduction but lacking HDR support.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6753 chipset, an octa-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, and 3GB of RAM, which allows for satisfactory multitasking.
  • The rear camera is a 13 MP unit with an f/2.0 aperture, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is suitable for selfies.
  • The battery capacity is 3150mAh, supporting standard charging but no wireless options.
  • Running on Android 5.1.1 with Amigo 3.1, the software experience is basic and may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and USB Type-C 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
  • The device does not offer water resistance and has no stereo speakers, but it retains a headphone jack.
  • Overall, the Gionee S6 combines a stylish build with moderate performance and camera capabilities, suitable for everyday use.
