 Gionee’s latest is the “world’s slimmest smartphone”, the ELIFE S5.5. As the name suggests, the phone is 5.55-mm slim.

 The ELIFE S series will be a new product category for the company which has become popular in India within months of its launch.

The S5.5 is equipped with a 5-inch Full HD Super AMOLED plus screen, a true Octa-core 1.7GHz processor, a 13 megapixel rear camera and the world’s first 95 degree ultra-wide angle 5 megapixel front camera. With the 95 degree wide angle front camera, taking self-group shots or full body selfies is made possible and easier than ever before.

The phone will also run AMIGO OS, which has been customised from Android for the ELIFE S5.5. Like the ELIFE E7, the phone consists of two shooting modes, the professional and normal camera settings, as well as the availability of the “Charm Camera” which includes auto make-up mode, footprint mode, and meeting memo mode.

The S5.5 supports HSPA＋42 Mbps with up to six different band sets, which allows it to function in most 3G WCDMA coverage areas as well as enabling global 3G roaming.
