Gionee Elife E3 Discussion Thread by Mogten(m): 2:52pm On Jun 21, 2013 |
Summary: The Gionee Elife E3 features a quad-core Cortex A7 processor clocked at 1.2GHz with 1GB of RAM and a 16GB internal memory, 7.9 mm chassis,a 4.7-inch display, 2MP front camera,8MP rear camera with LED flash, Dual SIM, 1800 mAh battery,a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels,Android Jelly Bean v4.2.1, standard 3G, Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth, The entire phone weighs around 125.5 grams Design and build The E3 is well designed from all aspects. With a rubberised matte finished exterior, the E3 has a very strong and rugged frame. All the hardware is enclosed well within the 7.9 mm chassis. The dark front panel has a 4.7-inch display with a front-facing camera and three capacitive backlit buttons for Menu, Home and Back. The power and volume buttons are placed on the right side while the micro USB interface and the earphone jack is placed on the top. The other two sides are completely blank. The rear panel is made of a flexible polycarbonate plastic and fits snugly on the chassis. The rear side sports the camera with an LED flash and a speaker grille on the bottom end. The entire phone weighs around 125.5 grams and the slim form-factor together with the rubberised finish makes the phone very comfortable to hold and operate. 8 MP rear camera with LED flash, rear panel has a rubberized matte finish. 8MP rear camera with LED flash; rear panel has a rubberised matte finish. Availing a screen protector and a rear protection case for the phone would definitely be difficult for now, as this manufacturer is new in the market. Keeping this in mind, Gionee has bundled along a screen protector and a transparent and flexible protective shell. The shell fits very snugly and feels as part of the phone itself. Though the shell is not scratch resistant, it will definitely keep the phone’s brightly coloured rear panel safe from being scratched and tarnished. We found the shell fitting so perfectly that there is a slight issue while removing it—it tends to come off along with the rear panel. Though this is not a matter of concern, detaching the shell from the phone takes a bit of effort. Also, if you want another shell, you might have to write to the manufacturer for an additional piece. Top features the micro USB interface and headphone jack Top features the micro USB interface and headphone jack Volume and power on the right side of the phone Volume and power on the right side of the phone Along with the phone is packed a good looking pair of earphones matching the phone’s colour. Though the build quality of the flat cabled in-ear headset is good, there is a slight lack of proper finishing touches. Also bundled is the charger, user manual and a micro USB cable. Dual SIM, 1800 mAh battery, free transparent protective shell Dual SIM, 1800 mAh battery, free transparent protective shell Features The Gionee Elife E3 features almost identical specs of the Dream D2 except for a few differences. The handset is a dual-SIM Android smartphone with support for GSM and WCDMA SIM modules. While one SIM slot is for a regular mini SIM module, the other SIM slot supports the micro SIM module. This is beneficial for those who have an existing mini or micro SIM as they would not have to cut or exchange the existing ones. The E3 features a quad-core Cortex A7 processor clocked at 1.2GHz with 1GB of RAM. The graphics processor used here is the PowerVR SGX544. The internal storage is a good 16GB as compared to the Dream D1, which featured just 4GB. The display on this one is a 4.5-inch HD IPS panel with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. The rear camera is 8MP with an LED flash and the front camera is 2MP. Connectivity options include the standard 3G, Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth. The operating system on the E3 is Android Jelly Bean v4.2. Lastly, the internal battery fuelling the smartphone is a lower 1800 mAh as opposed to the 2100 mAh one used in the D1. The handset we received was the pink variant, while other colour options available are white, black, yellow and blue. Smooth custom UI and launcher similar to MIUI Smooth custom UI and launcher similar to MIUI User interface and performance Gionee has been using a custom user interface and launcher on the E3 just like the D1. The UI gives you the feel of the famous MIUI touch with a few changes here and there. The UI is smooth and swift with no lags or jitters at any given time. The user interface can be completely themed as per your preference and there are six free themes on the system at your disposal. Sadly, there are no online themes for download, nor can you customise your own for now. The themes are very similar to the MIUI counterpart. If you don’t like the themes, you would have to use your own launcher. System info, launcher can be customized with themes System info, launcher can be customised with themes On the performance front, we did our usual benchmarking using a few apps. AnTuTu scored 13,075, Quadrant scored 4,057 and Nenamark2 reported 43.1 fps in their tests. Linpack averaged at 36.7 MFLOPS and 123.6 MFLOPS in the single-thread and multi-thread tests respectively. Based on the results, we found the Elife E3 performing a tad better than the Dream D1 and the Xolo Q700. Source: http://tech2.in.com/reviews/smartphones/gionee-elife-e3-review/875908

so far so good first day run of the gionee e3 was pretty impresive. started the day at 7am with phone permanently on 3g(mtn) and back light at 30% brightness all syncronization on(whatsapp,facebook,twitter,emails) and gps running. the battery performance was fairly impresive, no single game played so as to know how the battery handles a regular run |
