For the price I think the Fone is worth more considering the fact that it score more than galaxy note in benchmark test...if u are heavy user like me then u have to go for it as u would not know whether PHCN exist in ur area

Hi Everyone,This is gizmo96(Gizmoddict) and This
is the full in-depth written review of the Gionee
GPad G2.
Introduction and Unboxing
Launched by the Chinese Company Gionee in the
Indian market,The GPad G2,is a 5.3” phablet with
some Amazing specs like a Quad Core 1.2GHz
MediaTek processor,1 Gigabyte of RAM and a 240
PPi qHD display For A Very Budget price of INR
13,990.The Phone runs on 2 SIM cards.One is
Micro-SIM with 3G support and the other is a
normal SIM.This phone is a competitor to the
Micromax Canvas Doodle as well as the Titanium
S5.The Box of the Phone is pretty simplistic.You
get a free flip cover with the phone.Other than the
that,We have the Phone itself,2 screen
protectors,USB Wall charger,Micro USB to USB
cable,Standard earphones,the massive 3000mAh
Battery and micro-sim ejector tool.You also have a
bit of paperwork.
Here's My Unboxing Video
Design and Build Quality
The design is simplistic with all plastic
construction and with around 9.9 mm
thickness,this is really one of the thinnest phablets
in the Indian market.On the front are some
sensors,a speakerphone and 2mp camera along
with the 3 capacitive buttons and a microphone at
the bottom.On the sides are the volume rockers
(Right hand Side) and a power button(Left hand
side) which is very oddly placed.On the top is the
3.5mm headphone jack and the bottom has the
micro USB port for syncing and charging.The Back
has an 8 mp camera which not the best you can
get but we will talk about it later.On the bottom
right is the speakerphone which is fairly loud but
can be annoying at full volumes.The Back is
removable and the back cover is made up of a
glossy plastic.Inside we have the 3000mAh
Battery,2 sim slots and a 16GB SD card included.
Overall,The Build quality of this phone is pretty
decent for the price.The Glossy plastic can be a
fingerprint magnet but it isn't visible much on the
white version.The provided flip cover is a nice
addition and it can wake/sleep the screen too.
Hardware Performance,Benchmarks and Gaming
The GPad G2 runs on a 1.2GHz Quad Core
Mediatek Chip and a 1GB RAM.The GPU is
PowerVR SGX544MP.The Benchmark scores were
pretty high for a phone of this range but not
comparable to the quad core devices from
samsung or sony.You can see the different scores
of benchmarks that i ran in the pictures below
The phone does a great job in running Android and
its features.The multitasking works flawlessly and
even after loading a lot of apps,the phone doesnt
slow down.With such nice specs,the software runs
very smooth and tasks like Browsing,Mailing etc
very snappy with almost no lag.I could load up
heavy websites such as the verge and it could
handle the zoom in zoom out easily and it
rendered the page very well.Thanks to the large
display,the content looks very nice.Even heavy
apps like Google Earth which has a lot of 3d
rendering,worked well which ironically lag on my
Xperia S.Overall,the Hardware does a great job in
running the device.The performance of the phone
is great and there's no noticeable lag.But Yes,there
might be little lag at rare times but let's just call it
the classic Android Stuttering.
Gaming was also a breeze on this phone.I
downloaded various famous titles such as NFS
Most Wanted,Modern Combat 4,RipTide GP,Dead
trigger and temple run 2 and all ran really well.I
was very much impressed by the performance on
Modern Combat 4.The Game looked great.I even
played Temple Run 2 by changing the Graphic
Settings to high and it worked nicely.The only
Games that lagged were Asphalt 7 and Gangster
vegas but I guess Gangster vegas had some issues
with its release version on many devices
I have talked about everything on this phone in
my review video! Don't forget to watch it
Software
Out of the Box we are greeted with Android 4.1.2
and all its great features.Gionee has its custom
lanuncher with various themes and widgets to
choose from.I was not a big fan of this launcher as
the themes and widgets caused a little lag while
navigating through the homescreen and the
animations were slow too.So to get a proper
performance,I loaded up Nova Launcher along with
HD widgets and an icon pack and the phone was
as snappy as it could get.Gionee has tweaked the
software a bit and has added toggles in the
Notification center which is very useful.You also
get notifications on your lockscreen circle.Gionee
GPad G2 also supports OTA or Over The Air
Updates.Overall,The software is snappy and
quick.All the Jellybean 4.1 features are present like
Google Now & Project Butter
Camera
One of the major issues with the “Budget”
smartphones is the camera;And in the Gpad G2
too,i wasnt impressed much.The Camera App has
a simple interface.You can set various image
properties and resolutions.The Max photo output is
8 megapixels and video is 720p.The video camera
has tap to focus functionality which is nice.The
Outdoor Performance of the Camera was between
Medium to Good but the Indoor Performance was
rather average.Pictures looked a bit grainy indoors
and lacked sharpness. The Camera Test is also in
the Review Video if you're interested in learning
more about the Camera.Other than that,One issue I
had was that,the pictures indoors when taken from
a third party app like instagram or camera
360,were dull but the stock camera took them
right.But maybe,this might be the issue with my
unit.So,If you are not a big photography fan or you
rather use your phone only outdoors,then you
won't have an issue with it.
Screen Quality and Media Consumption
The 5.3 inch screen is nice.Viewing angles are
really good and colours look vivid and nice.With
960x540 resolution the display only has 241 PPI
which is good but not that appealing to me as my
phone has a 341 PPI display.But You do get more
screen real estate on this phone and movie
watching would be treat for you.The display is very
much reflective which makes it hard to use even
with full brightness outdoors.Typing is amazing on
this phone.With such a big screen.You can type
easily and quickly without making any mistakes.
Regarding the Media Consumption,the large screen
makes video watching a treat.Movies played
perfectly without any lag but when I played some
heavy files which are like 3 to 4GB in size,they did
lag(But it is expected as these are very heavy
files).The Mono speaker is loud enough but at full
volumes it can turn annoying.Also,one thing I
noticed is that the music output through
headphones was flat because the phone's stock
player doesn't have a tunable equaliser.
Battery Life
The Battery life was very Good on this Phone.I was
able to pull out a day completely.I had the
brightness turned up to 100%,did a bit of
browsing,moderate to high gaming and data
downloading.I was running dual sims with one on
HSPA+ 3G.I could easily pull out a day with
Medium to Heavy Usage.Gionee also has some
battery saving features but I never used them.If
you are in search of a phone with decent battery
life,the Gpad G2 is not going to disappoint you
The call quality was nice and clear and the dual
sims worked prefectly fine.
Verdict
Overall,the phone is nicely built, has nice hardware
andslick and fast performance.It can handle most
of the games and everyday tasks like a breeze and
also provides a great battery life.The Camera isnt
very good on this phone but it depends on you
whether its a big deal or not.For 13,990 rupees i
would have no problem recommending this phone
to anyone.So this sums up my review for the GPad
G2.Drop in your questions or your views about the
Review.Also be sure to check out the full review
