Why don't u compare your G4 with the higher end versions of Gionee and Samsung?

The highest gionee flagship is the elife e8. Very powerful phone with qhd screen, 3gb of ram and 24mp camera. But the phone is ugly, doesn't look premium like the elife s series and the m5. LG g4 sure looks better, but performance wise I don't know , they both should match each other, though g4 runs snapdragon 808 which is a plus IMHO. The e8 has a fingerprint sensor that is lacking in the g4 though. I think it's a close call.

However, gionee wouldn't even bother selling their elife E8 in Nigeria because that phone ain't cheap. If they decide to sell it here the price would be between 100-120k, that's enough to buy a flagship Samsung, htc, LG and Sony.

In terms of camera,sound quality and display its gud.In terms of multitasking, HD games its very poor. Let's hope the Marshmallow update from tecno will correct all these bugs.

A Helio x10 isn't a top of the shelf processor, and can't match Snapdragon 808, 810.
So I'd still say they lack a true flagship.

Gadget freaks are liable to wasting time and money .

I use a Gionee P4 and it beats many more expensive phones especially camera quality. Though dem no give me free memory card like Tecno does

Restrictions as in They're some activities MTK devices can't perform as compared to high end android devices like Sony, OnePlus, Or even Samsung. In as much as MTK chips are doing a lot this day s, where they try as much to seal the difference, at least to meet market standard, Its a fact that they're lower end devices.

Processor alone does not make a flagship. Mediatek 6795 is a top of the line processor used by most chinese phones to cut the cost. Not on the same level with snapdragon 808 or 810 but they are gradually getting there. A phone with qhd screen, 3gb of ram, 24mp camera, fingerprint sensor and premium price is a flagship phone, if doesn't matter if it runs mediatek or snapdragon. HTC one m9 plus is a flagship phone and it runs mediatek.

Though mtk chips are cheaper than snapdragon and exynos, but there's nothing a snapdragon phone can do that mediatek 6795 cannot do (at least at the moment).

You haven't said anything here.
You can't compare devices with mid range SOC to that with a high end SOC.
if they are in the same price bracket then you can freely compare.

Camera
My favorite part

Gionee Marathon M5
It features a 13mp Samsung sensor(from the SG S4) with f/2.2 aperture with FHD video recording at 30Hz and a 5mp up front.
Here are samples (am going to borrow camera samples from the review on nairaland)

Even if nokia release an android phone next year, they don't have a chance to dislodge Samsung. We saw what they did with their lumia phones, no real innovation apart from Carl zeiss camera. They have good designs but do does Samsung.
