Teletalk Pvt. Ltd., the authorized distributor of Gionee smartphones in Nepal, has officially made its flagship phone, the Gionee A1, available to the Nepalese customer. The handset was announced at MWC 2 months ago. In Nepal, it was available for pre-order from the offline and online store.
The Gionee A1 is priced at Rs. 29,999 and offers a 5.5-inch 1080P display that has bright and vibrant IPS panel for the price tag. On the performance side, it has 4GB of RAM and a rather dated Helio P10 octacore processor.
Gionee A1 Long Term Review:
Gionee has marketed the phone with a tagline “Super Selfie Super Battery” as it offers 16-megapixel front camera and 4010mAh battery. The phone has not only focused on the megapixel count but also on the sensor size and selfie flashes to ensure enhanced photo quality and clarity. The 16MP sensor comes with the sensor size of 3.06” and an aperture of F/2.0. Speaking of the battery capacity, the Gionee A1 has a big 4010mAh battery. It also comes with fast charging (18 Watts) that the company claims will charge the phone from 0 to 100% in 2 hours. It also features a dual chip charging technology that keeps the battery cool and safe when the phone is being charged.
Gionee is also offering “Super Service” for the Gionee A1. This offer includes a 30 days replacement warranty, and a faster service within hours for in warranty and out warranty product.
