Gionee phone with 6-inch display, 4GB RAM spotted online

It has now become a trend among manufacturers to come up with smartphones with a full-screen design. Especially, in China, there are many smartphones available that feature bezel-less displays. Now, it seems like Gionee is also working on a similar smartphone.

A Gionee handset carrying the model number SW17W08 has appeared on the benchmark site GFXBench. The benchmark listing has revealed some of the key specs of the Gionee SW17W08 as well. To start with, the smartphone features a large 6-inch display with the resolution of 1440×720 pixels. For comparison, the newly launched Micromax Canvas Infinity also boasts the same screen resolution.

Further, the display has an aspect ratio of 18:9. Under the hood, the Gionee SW17W08 is powered by a MediaTek Helio P25 processor that is clocked at 2.6GHz. The chipset is topped with a Mali-T880 GPU. Pairing with the chipset, there is 4GB of RAM and 64GB of inbuilt storage space. It is not unclear if there is an option to further expand the storage space.

On the optics front, the GFXBench listing shows the smartphone featuring a 5MP rear camera as well as a 5MP front camera. Well, it is unlikely that the device will have such a low-resolution primary camera. So we assume that the Gionee SW17W08 may come with dual cameras on its back. That being said, we should also keep in mind that the benchmark listings give out inaccurate information.

On the software front, the smartphone runs on Android 7.0 Nougat, which can be layered with Amigo OS 4.0 on top.
As of now, this is pretty much everything we know about the Gionee SW17W08. However, we expect the device to appear in other benchmark sites in the coming days.
