More rumors of the Gionee new flagship! We already reported about the camera this week, but now, new sources claim the capability of taking 100 Mega-Pixels photos!
News about Gionee Elife S8, began to emerge with strength during these weeks. The phone that comes to replace the old E7, after a long reign, has appeared in TENAA in the last week. This week we have shown some finds about the camera that will be present on the device.
Now after a few teasers, rumors began to emerge indicating that the device can take pictures in 100Mega-Pixels! That may sound an overstatement, or even impossible, When it appears that the device in question might feature a 23.8MP sensor, probably the OmniVision OV23850.

But if we remember the case of some Oppo phones, the camera software did all the work, an advanced interpolation which resulted in crisp and beautiful 51MP pictures. We can assume that Gionee will make a similar job to result in pictures with so insane size.
Regardless, we must remember that the Elife E7 16MP camera, still offer one of the best cameras of the market, even after so long. Results of choice not only of a good sensor, but also due the good software responsible for the final work.
The Gionee Elife E8 is set to launch sometime in this year, other specs include a 2K display, 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage, 8 mega-pixel front camera, 3250mAh battery, Fingerprint and Android 5.0, probably powered by the MT6795 SoC, but this still remains to be confirmed.

Sony and OV both make some very good sensors and some not so good. It’s tough to judge one versus the other because the sensor is only one part of taking food photos, optics matter as well.
I have used several Gionee/Blu devices all with OV sensors (ranging from 8-16mp). All were very good to amazing (E7). Several brands outside of China use them including LG, Apple and Motorola. Chinese brands all want the IMX 214 because that’s what the OPO, Xshot and Mi4 all used last year.
yes, I hope this new E8 will help shifting towards OV new purecel units for smaller brands’ flagships, was very impressed with the e7 as well.
I have the Gionee E7, OnePlus, OPPO 5 and Ulefone Be Pro. The E7 camera is much better than the Sony of Oppo 5 and One Plus. I also compared with HTC One and the E7 is also better. The Be Pro has the worst camera of the lot!
Oz have you used the E7 phone for night time shots? I am looking for a camera that will take good shots in bars and clubs with friends.
Not that often. But at indoor with normal lighting the pictures look good- compared to my One Plus. The Gionee camera has a bigger sensor compared to the Sony.
Sensor is only one part of the story .
A good camera and image processing software is also important .
And optics is an another factor .
