lol boss,this one na fatality o,but ur battery dey last 15 or 13 hours on heavy usage ..am talking about screen time

11 hours on 3g straight constant downloading... the screen was ON the whole time plus I was using a power draining VPN app.... this is no exaggeration, I posted a battery reviews and screenshots of my 10% per hour drain on phisphon VPN and 3G download(was even listening to music too)


haven't done a gaming or movie test(which are the other 2 heavy usage tasks I know)... But if the battery didn't stand up to a 4000mah battery, Users would have complain.... na me for shout pass

Rashdimuh:
lol you ve convinced me

welcome to the crew... but if it turns out you don't like the m3 mini, no blame am for my head o... I'm only suggesting

BTW, did I mention M3 mini has OTG function and can charge other phones?... oh yea, I forgot that, because m3 mini users do not even consider that a feature unlike some phones, whose selling point is OTG.. **Evil Laugh**

don't even get me started on the awesome sound system?... cus I'd just get banned for trespassing and almost causing major bad market for tecno

na the settings wey follow the phone come be that .. so i dint bother putting it off all this while.. so, when I was trying to fix the photo effect..I never passed the camera settings, cause I believed that was where the solution was. but since I didn't get anything, had to manage the camera like that and I stopped taking pictures. went back to my lg for that. however, I sent a system picture to the lg phone so as to use it as a wall paper on lg.. but on viewing the picture on the lg, the colours came out pretty well(red and green) unlike what I first fell in love with on m3. I first thought it was the difference in the 2 phones display but sha to cut long story short, I put off the colour correction and my display looks crisp on m3

weird.... my color correction was switch off by default. Hope the momentary mishap didn't make you regret getting the phone, cus M3 mini is suppose to be one badazz flawless/faultless beast

BTW, its actually settings => Advanced => Accessibility => color correction - off

Hormor14:
does hook in campaign ,except for the blurry graphics no problem with but I dont know about multiplayer yet ..
but the game is shit now ...Gameloft so greedy

for the graphics, I'd help you with the same technique I used whilst using a Mali 400mp device(My beloved Tecno F5)... it involves root access tho and I'm totally clueless if it would work on lollipop

ever heard of GLtools?

Hormor14:
has anybody been able to root this phone

L5 now has twrp... you need to flash it via PC... then flash SuperSU binary by TWRP

Rashdimuh:
pls why m3mini

awesome GPU(Mali T720... supports Open GL 3.1 and Directx 9)... prefect gaming device (MC4, NFS MW, A8, Nova 3 felt console-like)

quad core 64bit MT6735m CPU, with awesome power management and less heat generation... Android is upgrading to 64bit, you don't wanna be left behind. M3 mini also doesn't ever get hot... like EVER! even when using and charging

4000mah battery.... Super awesome battery life, plus its removable. Its Gionee[one of china's biggest brands] they'd not use fake stuff or lie, especially in their notable M series

Super badazz Camera... Its no camon phone but doesn't disappoint.... I compared it with my friends Hot 2 and its was a "Flawless victory" for my m3 mini despite the 3mp difference

No complains whatsoever... Apart from some little multitasking which is normal for all 1gb RAM lollipop device even the nexus-like Hot 2, the phone is faultless, mine is a month+ now and I don't see any issue to complain about

M3 mini is a phone design for its long lasting battery life, same with all M series phone yet doesn't make you feel like you only bought a power bank, cus its also thrives at everything else

Drops mic... continues sipping his LA casera

Rashdimuh:
I want to buy btw tecno l5 n gionee m3 mini advice me

I'd say gionee m3 mini but still the choice is yours

madjnr:
I would have gone for infinix hot 2 but the battery is not even up to the m2 mini

you still dey fence abi?

Guy I'd say chill for another set of low/mid range phones entirely... or do what I do, get a notepad, a pen and a ruler.... Write out the phones you have in mind and their specs in tabular form against each other, then compare and contrast until you're sure you've come down from the fence

trust me, I wanted to get the Hot 2 or C5... But there is no way I'd consider the L5, the specs suck!
BTW, Hot 2 back 8mp camera is totally useless!!!!

Marvell23:
check all the phones that came with the chipset paired with 1gb RAM it's the same story. How can you give 64bit architecture 1gb to process the work smoothly for u. Infinix hot 2 and Tecno L5 will murder the Gionee m3mini in multitasking I still repeat.

you realize that virtually no app on android is built to utilize lollipop's 64bit codes, even lollipop's source code only has a little part that supports 64bit... so technically Android is still 32bits, as such only utilizes the 32bits architecture in the mt67xx chipsets

I actually think L5 would suck at multitasking, considering what happened to Tecno's C series

madjnr:
okay ,am on the fence ,I don't know which to go for btw l5 and m3 mini...the mt6580 and two fingers touch on l5 make it awful...while the amigo 3.1 on m3 mini is too heavily customized ...pls can you run a battery test on the l5...from 100 to 20% pls

guy come down from the fence b4 police men see you

if amigo is your problem, would you rather use Google's factory UI(on infinix hot 2)? I heard its too under-customised

I just wanna say, don't go buying the L5, then hating tecno for selling you a powerbank with an IPS display... Gionee M3 is a complete phone(doesn't lack in anything), no compromises whatsoever... But then its your choice

[quote author= post=41133594]No Gionee M3 Mini user has sent the recovery.img, boot.img and scatter file for TWRP porting.[/quote]haba you didn't ask for any until now... MTK droid tools can get those files ryt?

boss any show on Gionee m3 mini request

quivah:
ok, about the colour changes after taking pictures... its actually not due to the flash light..cause even without flash, its still awkward.. more like a colour you get when you use all this yeye photo effects.
anyways, I put off the colour correction from the settings,and all the pictures I took with the phone were perfect and of original colour. All my app colours that were kinda off and weird are now back to original. you know,like the colour of opera mini was orange sort of when the colour correction was on..but now real red, when off. its now colourful

settings -- accessibility -- colour correction - off
.

I'm happy you finally fixed it... but wetin carry you go color correction sef?

madjnr:
m3 mini users we are left behind...pls let's all meet and complain in forum for twrp and root ,they will answer us ...even techno l5 now has root

why wouldn't it.... MT6580 is a museum worthy chipset, I'm surprised it took this long to root

anyway, I heard of super root... that it worked on Gionee M5 and S+... still tryna confirm tho, to avoid bricking my device

You can try at your own risk o

Marvell23:
I was telling someone in Gionee thread that this l5 will multitask better than the Gionee m3 mini he didn't agree. The processor on m3 mini shouldn't be paired with 1gb RAM unless you are looking for disaster We want more reviews though here

@bolded
is there any official post to back this up... abi you be engineer for mediatek?

L5 users and false claims.... watching in HD

Owobobrown:
lol boss, the phone is great, from the sound system, camera, display, processing speed etc

exactly my thought... you forgot to mention the GPU tho

Owobobrown:
they all run fine but not concurrent

had to look up the meaning of "concurrent"

well its has 1gb RAM.... I bet you can't mention any 1gb RAM device that can concurrently run apps without force closing some

Owobobrown:
its not an app, it's an ability for a phone or computer to run or execute two or more program concurrently

Dude he is being sarcastic... He knows what multitasking is, he just doesn't think m3 mini has a multitasking issue

I don't think so either, my apps run fine

wis292:
I wanted to go for this phone but i need suggestion...
Between Tecno L5 and Gionee m2 mini
Tecno Y5 and Gionee M3 mini
.
Which one should i go for?

l5 would be better than the M2 mini #screen size and battery factor

M3 mini will murder any tecno phone that isn't C5 and above(I.e J7, C8, Phan5)

IKON360:
How come nobody is talking about the virtual lack of multi tasking in dis fone?

Maybe cus its a 1GB RAM lollipop device and nobody is expecting a Christmas miracle even though its almost Christmas

quivah:
what the fu..ck is this??

Babe chill with the F word

PS:Your status bar is a mess and can I join you devour that plate of rice #pretty hungry

Owobobrown:

liljboy:

Owobobrown:

Etz that simple

encryptjay:
Nah,just some language stuffs and co for now.

okay thanks

quivah:
the phone's camera is good , however it changes the colour of whatever picture I take into a lighter colour. took a pic on purple shirt, but the colour of the shirt I got was just odd..
even a very deep blue phone was changed to a light,I mean very light one. I would say the camera isn't colourful.

maybe its my settings tho,any help?

I think its your lighting.... stop using the flash during daylight except its absolutely needed, and try taking the pic an outdoor environment with good lighting... its a 5mp cam tho, you shouldn't expect DSLR quality

vickertony:
both sim na micro sim abi na one normal sim and micro sim.

Both are micro sims

shedo4sure:
will post it 2mao... I av already taken d screen shot, bt i haven't sent it 2 my fone 4rm my friend's..... It was confirmed when I was playing pes 2014(psp) on d fone and couldn't hold x,r1 and direction keys simultaneously. I wish 2 buy d fone, bt i'm disappointed by d lack of multi touch which i'm already used to on my th6...

I think it does support multi touch but only 2 fingers.... That sucks!!!! Waiting for the screenshot tho

Every 4.5" screen should support up to 5 fingers... E.g H6, P4, M3 mini

I knew tecno was just going to sell a 5000mah power bank that runs android, has a display.... SMH

shedo4sure:
I just found out dat dis fone also isn't multi-touch, it only has 2 touch capacity.. Tecno messed up big time here.. What's d essence of having large ba3 on a low end device.. I'm nt discouraging future buyers though, i'm only expressing my thoughts 2wards d fone...

Which app did you test it with.... Kindly post screenshots plz

Lovelynature:
What's the screen size of this phone? And can it be compared to Gionee m3 mini?

Same size and resolution with the M3 mini but quality might differ

4.5" size, 480 * 854 resolution

Oluwaseunsodiq:
Is it just me or has everyone forgotten to brag about how such a cheap phone has a gpu that supports opengl3.1.

There are 2 many things to brag about.... Let's just chill and enjoy the phone

Only problem now is rooting it
