Gionee GN8001


The latest Gionee handset to be certified by TENAA is the GN8001. This is a phablet featuring a 6-inch AMOLED screen, with a resolution of 1080 x 1920 (FHD). An octa-core 1.3 GHz CPU is under the hood, with 3 GB of RAM on board. 32 GB of native storage is inside, with a 128 GB capacity microSD slot available for those who need additional memory.

The rear-facing camera will either be 13 MP or 8 MP, and a 5 MP front-facing camera snaps selfies and handles video chats. We don't have information about the battery powering the device, but the juicer inside could be in the neighborhood of 3000 mAh. Android 5.1 is pre-installed on the GN8001, which measures 8.2mm thick, but tips the scales at a heavy 206 grams.

The Gionee GN8001 supports 4G LTE, 3G, Bluetooth, GPS and USB connectivity. So far, there is no word on pricing or availability. But now that the phone has been certified by TENAA, making the phone official should not take terribly long for Gionee.
