“Gionee’s partnership with Flipkart will lead to a better understanding of the pulse of the ‘Bharat’ consumer. Gionee Max’s launch is the beginning of a new era for the Gionee brand in India,” Pardeep Jain, Managing Director, JIPL that manages Gionee in the country, said in a statement.
In terms of specifications, the smartphone features a 6.1-inch HD+ screen with Full View Dew Drop Display along with 2.5D curved glass.
The device comes with a powerful 5000mAh battery and according to the company, it offers 28 days standby time, 24 hours music, over 9 hours movie time, 42 hours of call time, and 12 hours of gaming.
