Gionee a Chinese mobile phone targeting European and US market
The Chinese are coming is this the best Android Camera-phone ever.
GIONEE, a global leader in mobile manufacturing, design and R&D, have announced a new flagship Smart-phone ELIFE E7 of its ELIFE series and Android based operating system AMIGO 2.0. ELIFE E7 is designed specifically to bring the technology of digital cameras to the smart-phone with best-in-class lens and a breakthrough image sensor .
Targeting the american market
16.0MP & 8.0MP Qualcomm Snapdragon 8974 5.5 FHD Display
The company claim that the “ELIFE E7 is the world’s first smart-phone equipped with a professional image sensor for a digital camera. It is also the world’s first 16 megapixel rear camera and 8 megapixel front camera smart-phone phone equipped with the QUALCOMM snapdragon S800 chipset.”
We have seen many smart-phones such as iPhone 5S or Sony Z1 which either chose to increase the resolution and sacrifice the pixel size or vice vesa. However, we have come up with a way to create the perfect combination and balance of image resolution and picture quality” Says William Lu, President of Gionee.
“A joint development with OminVison has enabled the Elife E7 to sport a 16 megapixel sensor with 1.34 µm pixels which enables users the ability to shoot razor sharp images without compromising the photo’s resolution or image quality.” William Lu addressed..
Camera & Display – The Masterpiece
Beside its powerful sensor and stunning resolution, ELIFE E7 developed and customized a large lens based on professional Largan M8 lens solution.
Featuring a 5.5 Inch FHD (JDI) Display with 1920 x 1080 and 400 PPI for spectacular viewing experience. Users are able to see clear previews of their photo and astonishing details of their pieces right on the large screen.
To provide users with increased durability and strength for any photo shooting scenario, the Elife E7 is equipped with the latest 3rd Generation Gorilla Glass which is 20 times more scratch resistance than regular classes and twice as durable as the second generation of Gorilla Glass. Whether you are a nature loving photographer or an adventure seeking shooter, Elife E7 will withstand any situation without a single scratch. In addition, Elife E7’s touchscreen is responsive to gloves, wet hands, and keys to ensure photographers can take pictures in any weather and any situation.
AMIGO 2.0 – A big leap on tailored Android OS
Following the success of the AMIGO 1.0 first launched in the ELIFE E6 3 months ago, Gionee has taken the Amigo operation system to a new level with Amigo 2.0
Voice control, normal, touch, smile and v-gesture on Amigo
The new Amigo enables users to choose from five convenient ways to take photos which include Voice control, normal, touch, smile and v-gesture. Its new and improved imaging applications enables users to edit photos, alter colors directly on the phone and create professional looking photos in just seconds. In addition, Elife E7 sports a revolutionary Photo Album that automatically categorizes photos by time, place, facial characterizes, and events; thus, enabling users to find a specific photo in seconds.
AMIGO 2.0 also introduced the sensor hub technology which is similar to Google’s Google NOW. In a traditional smart-phone, waking up voice assistant requires bigger CPU power consumption. With Gionee, we believe that a sensor hub technology should be used anytime, anywhere, hands free, and voice controlled. The first version of AMIGO voice assistant will now support Chinese.
