After much thought between Lumia 720 and Gionee Elife E5 , I decided to purchase E5. It has been one month since I bought this phone. I was using lumia 510 ( windows 7.8 ) before. So initially I thought to buy a windows 8 phone. But the problem with windows 8 too is the uneasy navigation to reach the settings or updating the address book etc and also a stupid music player where you cant add songs to a playlist. But ofcourse there are some good things like windows 8. Anyway I thought not to buy windows till there is windows phone 8.1 released. So I came back to android after 2 years. I did the right thing in purchasing this phone. It is really good phone for the budget. Pros: 1. Display is awesome 2. Performance is really good. 3. Very sleek and stylish. 4. Android 4.2 5.Can run almost any game easily. I was stunned to see it playing Fifa 14 very easily. 6. Camera is very good. 7. Inbox accessories like flip cover and screen guard ( 2 in no.s ) are pretty useful. Cons: 1. Heats up only during games being played for few hours like 2-3 hours.. but the heat is negligible too. So not much of a con. 2. Pathetic headphones. Although they look good but it was quite uneasy in my ear. Keeps coming off all the time. I moved back to my sennheiser headphones. 3. OK battery life. Need to charge almost once in a day with 3G on. 4. Camera is little sluggish when you move the phone. But it will take good picture in the end :) If your budget is for a midrange phone , I would suggest go for this one than the sony xperia SP which also comes in the same budget. Dont like samsung's budget phones.

i bought Gionee e5 in 30 dec,but after using it i realize i got damaged piece,actually the display is damaged also in middle colour patch sometimes blinking in black screen,when divice is performing its task,for me its like angriness to me after investing 15,000/- rupees of hardworking,such a looser and cheap phone,never expecting this from gionee,sorry.for middle class people like me i want to say that don't buy this useless phone,its my clear suggestion to all of you.only buy branded phones like LG,SONY,SAMSUNG,I-PHONE,NOKIA,because they provide good product,they first see quality then quantity,have you heard that branded phones provides you a 1.5 Ghz quad core processor in 15,000/- rupees,? NO, because they know that its impossible for them,so be wise and then take dicision,only chinisse phones provides this cheap product.actually i am going to give -5 to this GIONEE,but its not mention here so 1 unfortunatelly.

Received the good in open package. Box was not sealed. Its started giving problem, Lock key is not working properly Battery gets extra heated like it will blast if kept for more time. unable to hear the voice of the person talking other side.

It is sturdy, performance is the best among phones below 20k, screen is magnificent with really deep blacks and the copy speed of the onboard 16GB storgae space is great. The only thing is that being this thin it is a bit hard to use it in the beginning. I was really nervous as I was scared I would drop it for first few hours of using. Every game I have thrown at it works well (Asphalt 8, Real Boxing, MC4, NFS:MW ) The headphones are kind of a let down though compared to my Sennheiser MX 170.

No Doubt its a very good product. Its been priced very high by flipkart...Seems to be good phone if priced around 17k..You can get in three colors white,yellow,black.But flipkart shows only yellow. Pros: Awesome Build Quality Battery life is good(can stay for a day) Processor performance is too good..No lags noticed. Display is awesome.. Cons: *No expandable memory(only 16gb,quite ok) *Single Sim slot *Camera not so sharp with moving object. *Flip cover doesn't suit the mobile. Overall its a good buy with the price around 17k..Go ahead and purchase it..

After hearing Gionee so many times went to see the Phone..Build quality looked awesome but start using it and a Brand new phone is so slow just surfing from one page to the other.Screen too is low quality than a Micromax.Camera too is pathetic.its not worth 8000 Rs.Dont know how we people are allowing the Chinese to sell utter waste phones at exhorbitant prices. One final suggestion pls go and check any Chinese phone sold by any Chinese and Indian company before you buy it.Compare it with the Branded ones.A little extra investment is worth for a complete peace of mind

superb ph b/w the range 15k superb display,no lags & just little hangs(very little),pleasure to use,awesome to hold, cons: avg battery 16 gb thats it....

when i received it.. it was working fine. the camera quality is also really nice. love the front camera a lot. but after few days.. i noticed that it automatically gets switched off few times i don't exactly know why. and it doesn't get switched on even after we press the power button. it takes a lot of time to get started again. especially when the phone is kept on charging. though it doesn't happen frequently.. still its a pain. and it also gets heated if we use it for watching videos or texting for more than 25 to 30 mins. other wise things r fine.

Pros: Build Quality : Good Screen Quality : Seems really awesome but don't know how strong it is (not sure whether it has Gorilla Glass or not....Gionee also didn't mentioned anything like that) Gaming Review : 75% out of 100% Performance : Good... Benchmarks Score : 75% out of 100% Video playing : Awesome....no drawbacks in video playing... Audio mp3 : ---Headset : DTS Dolby really excellent..(music lovers definetely enjoy it) ---Speaker sound (medium sound but good clarity) Camera : Brighter images... Headset Build Quality : Good... Cons: Camera : below average, more noisy, More saturated images [poor] Video Recording : Below average (only 15fps) [poor] Heats up while playing high end games for more than half n hour... If we install all basic apps like gmail, skype, fb, whats app, viber, hangout, cleaner master, DU battery saver, and few high end games etc,. then RAM will be insufficient... Gionee already mentioned it as a 16GB Memory so we need to talk about it, but some times it may not be enought for few users.... Conclusion: Mobile is really good, and I'm satisfied......

Best phone is this price range ,phone is very slim ,but camera quality is not too good ,other wise phone is very good .
