Gionee S6 Pro
In November last year, Gionee unveiled
the S6 and soon there will be a pro version. The Gionee S6 Pro is coming on
June 13 in China and it really cranks up the specs.
The metal unibody will now be filled
with the popular Snapdragon 652 chipset with 4 GB of RAM. The 5.5" display
will have 1080p resolution, up from 720p. The Android version was bumped to 6.0
Marshmallow too and a 64 GB storage option has been added (there's a microSD
slot if you need more).
All this made the Gionee S6 Pro a bit
thicker - from 6.9 mm of the regular S6 to 7.6 mm. It weighs the same, though,
and the battery capacity is basically unchanged 3,130 mAh. A USB Type-C port
will be used for charging and wired data connectivity.
The phone brings a fingerprint reader,
opting for the Home key position instead of the back. There is also a 13 MP main
camera (1080p video) and an 8 MP selfie camera.
Again, the unveiling is a week from now. The press invite talks about machining the metal with
diamond-tipped tools, but we're not 100% sure what the 7 means.
