  • The battery is excellent, aside that it is a phone, not just a phone, it is a phone with the build quality of a bottle of beer. What do I mean? Most phones come with toughened glass, Gorilla Glass 4 or Dragon Trail for the Asia manufacturers. This one comes with chicken egg glass zero, I mean, even a heavy wind will shatter the screen. When you drop this phone, no need of hoping it didn't crack, it will shatter like a car windscreen, even from the slightest drop. And to assist you breaking it, the phone is as slippery as a fish. This phone has zero build quality, and the camera, it is like that on a Nokia 3310. Pathetic phone

  • Why would you want to pour water on your phone

  • I have used this phone for over 5 months now and my observations are that the screen display is spectacular, the screen is thick and solid, the processing speed is decent, the camera (especially the front camera) is really one of the best I've seen in a mid range phone, the battery (which is detachable) is not as durable as advertised, the audio is very decent and clean, finally, the phone is heavy. Overall I think is a really fantastic phone which I'm very glad that I bought.

  • Can you pour water on the phone just like Samsung?

  • Yes mine too same

  • Do we have any other option to boost audio recording. Can we use external mic to record good audio along with video playback.

  • Yes it support 32 GB and its working well, and the camera is good but the recording audio is very low compared to other mobile of similar range.

  • If you want to use the gionee m5 mini to charge another phone simple get OTG cable,connect it to charging point and you are good to go

  • Encrypt means to hide,then to encrypt photos, videos,contact,message is to hide them.

  • Hello guys please I need an honest review of this phone inin terms of camera,display,multitasking and overall performance Thank you

  • there have been samsung s5

  • Old man like you,you don't know you've supposed to have googled this weeks ago instead of flooding the timeline with the same question

  • I honestly don't know why you've been here for weeks asking the same question. Just fuckin google it already since nobody is replying you!!!

  • Why there is no one helping me on how to get phone browser? as it stated in the phone specifications that it comes with HTML 5, but I can't find it here..pls help me...the browser is very important to me. Thanks.

  • Based on all the positive reviews I've seen here,I'm about to get this phone. Hope it doesn't disappoint me :)

  • Is there any android 6 update or custom rom

  • What on earth would you install on your phone that will fill up 16gb?

  • By "files" you said,that excludes apps though? Cause I heard its impossible to move apps to SD card (memory card)

  • pls someone tell me about encrpting contacts and calls....

  • It stores files on phone memory on default and you can move your files to memory card if you choose...

  • I'm not sure you know what you're saying. There is no android phone with a front camera that has been released in the past 3 or 4 years that does not support video calling

  • the gionee marathon m5 mini does not support video call. pls can someone tell us more about it. why?

  • Just get a USB OTG cord, other mid range-high End phones can do this, but this just makes more sense with the huge battery it packs

  • will marshmallow update come for m5 mini or not ??

  • i m using gionee m5 mini...the battery doesnt work like they promised.. like.. it automatically goes down to 80 from 100 when i see it at the morning.. is this only mine problem..?? also..the system utility crashes time to time... it has also happened to other users.. can i also know about encrypting calls and contacts in it ?? i can only encryp my photos and messages...the calls and contact options cannot be used...

  • If you have nothing to say pls shut up. Don't go on a rant about the size of a great phone when you can just get another model that suits your tiny baby palms

  • You guys come on! Someone should kindly say something about how the reverse charging works already

  • Tell us more about the reverse charging guys. About how to use the m5 mini to charge other phones

  • Users of this device should comment on the reverse charging..have u guys tried it yet? What's your experience?

  • How do you charge other phones with this device though?

  • unfortunately doesn't support cast screen

  • hello, please how do you charge other devices with this phone?

  • Thanks man

  • Thanks for ur comment. Pls is it true that all apps can only be installed on the phone memory and not transferable to memory card?pls i need ur sincere reply

  • Since you're currently using the device, Is the 16gb rom sufficient for all your apps?

  • ya there is no options for moving apps from storage to sd card

  • A user of this device should respond to my previous post please. Is the 16gb rom sufficient since you can't move apps to your memory card?

  • Please is this phone upgradable....!!!!?????

  • U are right

  • Hey guys. I heard you can't move your apps on this phone to the memory card. so to anyone that uses this phone,is 16gb rom enough for all your apps?

  • Thank you for your reply I've also learned that you can't move your apps to the memory card,that all apps save on the phone. Is this a major problem for you too? You know..low memory rom

  • Yeah about 200g, but overall a good phone

  • Please someone should comment on the weight. I want to buy this phone. Does it feel heavy to carry?

  • I just got mine two days ago but the battery is removable and there is no infrared port, so I want to know if this is the same for other people that also own gionee M5 mini?

  • I just purchased the phone last week. But I noticed that the apps can only be installed on phone memory. Plus, the 11.7GB RAM that supposed to remain after the system-used 4.3GB isn't actually the remnant size (thereby resulting to low memory space warnings a lot). Gionee had better come up with an update that can fix these issues. Other than these, I give them a thumbs-up.

  • I bought this product new, tested and packed for me. I later opened the phone after charging but could not work . The screen was locked. All efforts to solve this failed. Kindly assist

  • With infrared, you can control several devices. I have infrared on my LG G3 and I control a lot of things with it. My TV, AC, Set top box, Projector etc. But I think the infrared is on the M5 not the M5 Mini

  • what do you need infrared for?

  • deãr users,please does this phone really have an infrared port as claimed by gsmwrena?

  • It's a nice phone and everything about it is superb its a wonderful phone because i'm using it.

  • nice mobile frnd

  • Good Product

  • Buy something better if you have any money. Redmi Note 3 looks a lot better to me.

  • Hi, guyz may i know please the phone is good or not? i want to buy this lovely phone.

  • lovely mobile but ther size so big future is good ,,,,,

  • lovely mobile

  • I just got this device. My first impression? Wow! It's plain beautiful! Can't wait to push it to its absolute limit.

  • I agree man. Eyeing on Sony z5 compact, although it's fragile I heard. Other candidate is Sharp aquos compact sh-02h. 4.7, but less bezel than the Sony. But since it's Japan only, the Iphone 5se will be cheaper lol. My main purpose is listening to music and it should be as compact as possible.

  • Is it a non removable battery

  • This phone is very OK . Please do not compare this phone with Tecno L5 which is sub standard to gionee p4.

  • Got mine today. Beautiful looking but a little bit heavy.

  • Too cost #29,999 compaired to Tecno L5 #17,500 which have 5000mAh battery and chipset is powerful than that of m5 mini only ram is different l5 1gb while 2gb.

  • This is not M5 mini from Gionee. No Its Mini Giant called M5 mini. Mini with maxi specs and ultramax price. Thats they call mini. Anyway its looks like apple phones which i really dont like because they're overpriced like always was.

  • The original m5 came with 6020mah ba3 right?Ok.The gionee m5 lite and m5 mini were just a business variant strategy.Lite and mini were both launched in India and Nigeria respectively.The lite version does not mean it is weightless considering its 4000mAh and 3gig ram while the mini version does not mean it unreasonably small or tiny in size but a version of 4000mah and 2gig ram.None of these are in no way as "big" as the mighty 6020mAh and 3gig ram combine,hence d name lite and mini.Have it in mind too that both lite and mini were 8mp camera while the boss is 13mp.In price too lite and mini differ from M5 big.Guys gionee must make money and dey dont care abt d name.In business u must make profit.Years back while in India M2 was released with 4gig rom 1gig ram,in Nigeria a version of 8gig rom was released and both were called gionee m2.That is called business!!!

  • it's mini for Giant or NBA players!! (720p 5 inch + 4k battery ) super battery life

  • 5 inches phone and they dare to name it mini ? so people have hands enough for max 5 inches phones are dwarfs ? how about the rest ? people's hands can operate phones smaller than 4.7 inches or even smaller than 4.5 or 4.3 ? what are they ? bacteria sized. Once again our only hope companies to restast producing human sized phones is Apple. Only if Apple reproduce a phone with 4 or 4.3 inches (aka iphone 6c or 7c) others will copy Apple and "reinvent small phones". This is the main reason forces me to buy an iphone 5s. To show Apple and others the right path.

  • Another Mediatek chipset without a compass/magnetometer. Meh!!!.

  • Looks like only the screen is mini. The body is just as big as non mini phones.
