3 new Elephone phones ranging from $80 announced! Full details

Elephone phone have come a long way in the past 12 months that we have known the brand, and are now looked to as one of the fast movers in the Chinese smartphone market, and 3 new models help to strengthen this.

A few years ago one of the most talked about phone makers from China was Zopo, however these details Zopo seem behind the times and are loosing market share against the likes of Doogee, KingSing, Kingzone and Elephone.

Elephone launched 3 new phones this week which has helped the brand increase their offerings to 18 devices, ranging from phones, a wearable and even a home monitoring system.

Elephone G4

The new ‘G’ range of phones starts with the 499 Yuan Elephone G4 with metal frame and comfortable curved rear panel. No prizes for guessing which phone have used as the inspiration of the G4!

Some might call the Elephone G4 a clone, but if you can look past the OnePlus One styling we do find some very nice features considering the low $80 price tag. First up is the use of a 5-inch 1280 x 720 HD display, quite unusually for the price! Android 4.4 Kitkat is also on board, as is a quad-core MT6582 processor, 1GB RAM, micro SD card reader and 8 mega-pixel main camera.

Full hardware specifications of the Elephone G4 are available here.

Elephone G5

Next in the range is the Elephone G5. Again we are looking at a OPO inspired phone, this time even down to the 5.5-inch display and dual LED flash on the rear. Elephone are even offering their own replaceable rear covers too in pink, purple, baby pink, yellow, green, blue and white.

Pricing is the major selling factor of the G5 with a Chinese retail price of just 599 Yuan, around $98.

The 5.5-inch display is again a 1280 x 720 panel, which for the price is a great choice. This time the phone also offers a larger 3020mAh battery, 13 mega-pixel main camera and 5 mega-pixel front, Dual SIM, micro SD and Android 4.4 Kitkat are also there too.

Impressive specifications again this time with a 5-inch 1280 x 720 HD IPS display, 2250mAh battery, dual SIM, Micro SD card, Android 4.4 Kitkat, 13 mega-pixel rear camera and even a finger print reader on the rear.

As an added speed boost, the Elephone G6 has an octacore Mediatek MT6592 processor , but keeps with just 1GB RAM.
