Hands On: The Stylish Gionee P5W First And Ever Hands On Review by kasysleek(m): 6:41am On Sep 03, 2016
The review is on a device only few blogs have written on.
While composing my review i did a search and found out that no blog as ever done a hands on review on the product and that baffles me cos this device in question is very sleek and from a well known brand that is Gionee hence the title.

And
No.. Its not Gionee's M5 or other high end gionee product but rather its a budget phone the Gionee P5W or Gionee pioneer P5W.

RAM AND PERFORMANCE
The P5W come with 1GB of ram and a 1.3GHz professor nice for game play. Although if you are a heavy gamer you may experience lagging and hanging over time.
If you are just an average game then you dont need to worry.
The P5W comes with 16GB ROM and can also take up to 128GB microSD card for storage expansion.

Re: Hands On: The Stylish Gionee P5W First And Ever Hands On Review by kasysleek(m): 6:57am On Sep 03, 2016
OS

The p5w come with android version 5.1 lollipop which is ok don't know if it's upgradable yet.

THE BATTERY

Sadly the p5w packs 2000mAh non replaceable battery, not much though but last for a couple of hours on 3G browsing and movie watching.
But on normal usage it can last longshot
If your are looking to buy a device with high battery specs, sorry the p5w is not the one.

STORAGES
The p5w has a inbuilt storage capacity of 16GB which is actually quite nice.

OTHER SPECS

Network- 2G and 3G enabled.

Dual Sim Slots.

What else could you want from a budget phone.


RATINGS:
Design 7.5 / 10
Processor and Ram: 6. 0/ 10
Battery: 4 / 10
Camera 6. 0/10

Re: Hands On: The Stylish Gionee P5W First And Ever Hands On Review by austelright(m): 2:44pm On Sep 03, 2016
with 22k you can get one depending on your location.
I bought mine early this year for 20k but because of dollar scarcity it has gone up.
OP pls stop misinforming the public about the battery because I'm a heavy downloader and the battery last me upto 2days if i don't recharge it.
The phone is a good phone and i don't mind buying another if naira appreciate against dollar.

I don't need you to believe me because Gionee is not paying for the ads.
If your battery doesn't last long check your device especially some apps that drains battery.
