Gionee Steel 5 Is A New Entry-Level Phone With A 5,000mAh battery

Even though the Chinese phone maker Gionee declared bankruptcy late 2018, it seems like the brand hasn’t gone out of business yet. The proof is that the company has just introduced a new smartphone called Gionee Steel 5. Although the brand hasn’t released the availability and price of the phone, we believe that the handset is most likely positioned in the entry-level segment. Notably, it is equipped with a 6.2-inch IPS LCD with a resolution of 720p. In terms of camera, it gets a dual 12MP + 2MP camera setup at the back and a 13MP selfie shooter housed on the water-drop notch on the front. It also packs a massive 5,000 mAh battery, which should be enough for a two-day battery life.
