Gionee announces the S6 with slim metal body
Gionee has announced the new Gionee S6, the latest in its line of slim mid-range smartphones.
The Gionee S6 has a 5.5-inch 720p AMOLED display, MediaTek MT6753 SoC with 1.3GHz octa-core CPU and Mali T-720 GPU and 3GB RAM. The 32GB internal memory is expandable via the microSD card slot while the camera pair includes a 13 megapixel main unit and a 5 megapixel front snapper.
There's a hybrid second SIM slot, so you can choose between dual SIM and single SIM and memory expansion. You get LTE support, USB Type-C connector, and a 3150mAh battery. The phone is running on Android 5.1 Lollipop with Gionee's AMIGO OS 3.1 on top.
The S6 is a sleek device with a metal body, unlike the previous S-series devices that had glass back. It also has really thin bezels on the side, and Gionee claims the phone has a display to glass ratio of 77.8%. The phone is just 6.9mm thick at its thickest point.
The Gionee S6 is priced at CNY 1699 ($266) and will be available from November 22.

did they check with Huawei Honor 6, or Xiaomi Mi4. Both of these are superb devices still cheaper. Lets see the prices in India.

I'll admit the A9 looks an awful lot like the iPhone 6 but that still doesn't take away the fact that the first unibody iPhone was heavily influenced by the M7's original design.
