elephone p4000

It has been revealed today that Elephone are getting in on the endurance phone market with the all new Elephone P5000 with huge battery.

Large battery phones are carving out a niche for themselves and Chinese phone manufacturers are right there at the front of the surge. The latest to launch will be from Elephone and although named the P5000 will have a battery size closer to 6000mAh.

According to news posted on the Elephone blog, the Elephant P5000 will have a battery size of 5650mAh which has enough power inside to power the phone and act as a powerbank to charge other devices.

Interestingly Elephone will be asking fans to help spec the P5000 and will open an official forum on 11th November where fans can discuss what they hope the phone to have in terms of hardware.

    10 bucks everyone willgo for the MT6595 at least. If such a phone can come with the MT6595, it will be a joy to have and use too.

      why go for the 6595 why not 6752

      • CiroD

        6595 performance are far better than 6752 😉

        • Han Lubach
          November 5, 2014

          Thought that 6735 6752 and 6795 were better then 6595.
          According to the roadmap

          • November 10, 2014

            6795 might be better than the 6595 but definitely not the 6732/6752. 6595 is better than the other ones. Check out benchmarks and user experience.

    What is the quality of Elephones. How can they push out so many new phones ?

  3. November 5, 2014

    The Elephone webpage shows another “leak”… P6000. Any news about it?

    • Brooklyn701
      November 6, 2014

      The P6000 does not necessarily have a bigger battery. The P4000 also only has 2850 mAh even though the P3000 has 3150 mAh. So its not really an indicator. 😉

    • The Bastard Christ
      November 5, 2014

      AMEN! 720p screen with a qualcomm quad and 2gb ram. no fucking 2k displays and goddamn chips that could run laptops than can barely run for 8 hours.

  7. Chetan
    November 5, 2014

    who the fuck needs a 4k display for a fucking palm size device???
    it may be fancy but no real use, it will drain the battery faster

    FHD display 441ppi 5 inch

    I believe….
    1080p display
    3GB RAM
    16gb storage

  9. Raul

    My own version would be something like this

    Super Amoled Display
    2 GB Ram
    32 GB ROM
    Octa Snapdragon 615
    4G
    13 mpx Sony Camera sensor
    LED Notifications

    Unlike most people here I don’t day dream and ask for impossible specs

    • ARUN SUBRAMANIAN
      November 6, 2014

      Thumbs up..same here…and 720p 5 inch screen would do for me…but camera quality must be super.

    something like Gionee Marathon M3 would be perfect http://www.gionee.co.in/portfolio/m3/

    All these idiots wanting FHD or 2K displays… LOL Then the 5650 mAh is no use you low morons. As if you see a difference to 720p and 2K in everyday use… LOL Eagle eyes 😉 Some people just love the high resolution placebo to feel important. :rolleyes

    Really good would be:

    5 inch screen with 720p with very good luminance and high contrast
    MTK MT6595 with focus on low power, not gaming idiot kiddies
    3GB RAM
    2G/3G4G all Quadband covering all frequencies
    Rear camera with 13 -20 MP camera with AF, strong flash and OIS
    Front camera with 8 MP and AF
    Gorilla or Sapphire glass
    Dual SIM (MUST!!!!)
    SD Card Slot with at least 64GB support
    Multicolour Notification LED
    Thin bezels

    But with all these features you can reckon with a price beyond $350…. :/

  12. Belpo
    November 6, 2014

    Besides what everybody just said, I will add IR blaster for remote control for TV> I like this feature as many other

  13. SmestarZ
    November 8, 2014

    Few of the ideas that I might add to the nice specs by other readers would be

    DUAL BOOT ROM.
    I mean to have two different “flavours” or operating systems that might give the user the feel of two phones without investing in two. Does anyone else find it interesting?

    SAPPHIRE GLASS 1080P DISPLAY BUT 4K VIDEO RECORDING.

    As of now, 2K display is attractive but its way more power consuming to have 2K display. So maybe Retina screen with 441 dpi FHD should suffice. to be power efficient, but have a camera that can take 4K videos that might be an interesting and at par with other phones as of now. If I am to be thinking futuristic,

    SECOND E-INK DISPLAY

    I might think of dual display, The back display being E-ink display

    This display can be used to save power of the phone and do some basic work (except gaming and other high end things) like checking emails, or using social networking
    the advantage of this display would be that it can help save power.

    Having this e-ink display might require either fixed non user replacable battery OR have a slot /tray for battery and a Sim tray, that might add to the cost, but then it would be something new that no one has.

    I’d like it to have a:
    AMOLED screen with high brighness levels not bigger than 5 inches
    2GB RAM
    Exynos 5/7 Octa
    IR Blaster
    MicroSD Slot
    Slow motion video and 1080P 60 fps

  15. DC
    November 25, 2014

    Ahhh….. no in-built DAC for hifi sound?

  16. Blacrage
    December 10, 2014

    Huge removable Battery that would be the best asset because some places are far from service centers that some times would take the retail store, months to return the phone.

    5″ or 5.5″ gorilla Galss 3 display anti glare like some MSI laptop if possible so that sun reflects and scratch would’nt be a problem.

    Dual Sim Card slot, 4G/LTE support

    Latest Highest Octa Core processor

    latest Highest Adreno or Mali GPU

    2 or 3 gigabytes of RAM

    GLONASS GPS

    Apps can be install on Expandable High speed micro Sdcard slot 32 to 128GB memory

    Very Loud and Clear speaker if possible

    OTG,NFC,Bluetooth 4.0,radio,java,flash player ready,

    Accelerometer, Ambient light sensor, Audio Photo, Barometer, Gyroscope, IR blaster, Magnetometer

    can play many types of multi media files like MP3,MP4 and Mkv files

    thats all in my mind coz i just want to have a phone that can play high graphics game’s with good quality performance good sounds and can play multi media with loud and good quality good and high signal reception even in low signal area, loud speaker when recieving call.
