Gionee has today announced a new version of the Gionee S10 announced back in May 2017. Dubbed the Gionee S10 Lite, the new device shares several similarities with the Gionee S10C, with minor differences and have as its selling points a long-lasting battery, a 16MP front shooter and a WhatsApp Clone feature that lets users install up to three accounts on the same phone.
Priced at Rs. 15,999 and available in black and gold color options in India, the Gionee S10 lite has all it takes to compete with the Moto G5S with the same price tag. The device will be available to buy in India from December 23 through offline and online channels.
Gionee S10 lite, unlike the S10C, has a single 13MP rear camera with LED flash, f/2.0 aperture, along with a 16MP fixed-focus selfie camera with a f/2.0 aperture and selfie flash. The device has a compact 5.2-inch (1280 × 720 pixels) HD IPS display, while there is a quad-core Snapdragon 427 SoC clocked at 1.4GHz, mated to 4GB of RAM under the hood.

Hi, Ige, I’m sorry I just came to say that “3,100mAh battery” is not a feature one could be proud of, well, maybe if the device thickness is around 5 mm.
