Gionee W909
The Gionee W909 is the company's
upcoming clamshell phone, which we've been expecting to come out since January,
when benchmarks of the devices surfaced. The wait will soon be over as Gionee
has sent out press invites for the phone's unveiling on March 29.
The Gionee W909 will feature a
MediaTek's Helio P10 chipset, also known as MT6755. This 64-bit SoC features a
2 GHz octa-core Cortex-A53 CPU and the Mali-T860 GPU. In the W909 it's paired with
a whopping 4 GB of RAM.
A neat feature of the phone will be its
fingerprint sensor. The rest of the alleged specifications include dual
displays of HD resolution, 32 GB of internal storage and a microSD card slot.
At the back, there's a 16MP camera coupled
with a 5MP at the front. The phone measures 124.6 x 62.5 x 16.4 mm and weighs
around 210 grams. The W909 is expected to be priced at US$ 615 (CNY 4,000), but
whether it'll retail outside China isn't clear yet.
