Gionee's new marathon phones have twice as much battery capacity than most other smartphones.
The original Gionee Marathon M5 has over 6,000 mAh battery capacity and retails under ₹20,000 on Flipkart. The Gionee Marathon M5 has two new siblings — M5 Plus and M5 Enjoy.
Both the phones were launched in China and are available for sales online. The M5 Enjoy costs CNY 1,999 (~₹20,00) and the M5 Plus costs CNY 2,499 (~₹25,000).
They are available at a price higher than the original M5 despite their lower battery capacities (1,000 mAh less). However, they make up for that flaw with a fingerprint scanner at the bottom.
Both the phones run Amigo OS 3.1 (based on Android 5.1 Lollipop), pack 3 GB of RAM, 5,000 mAh batteries, 64 bit quad-core processors, expandable storage via microSD, dual-SIM 4G slots while weighing roughly 200 grams.
Where the M5 Plus trumps the M5 Enjoy, is a full HD 6 inch screen over the 5.5 inch 720p TFT screen. The M5 Plus comes with 64 GB internal storage, 13 MP camera and a USB Type C instead of M5 Enjoy's 16 GB storage, 8MP camera and a micro USB port.
Even though it packs in more features, the Gionee Marathon M5 Plus is over half a millimeter thinner than the M5 Enjoy, making it a much better deal for the price.
