If you think only the big giants of the smartphone industry should take all the credits for providing people with superb smartphones, bet you should think again.
Apple, Samsung, LG, Nokia, Sony, and HTC have undoubtedly given us countless of options when it comes to choosing the best smartphone that will definitely match up our lifestyle. But are these famous giants the only brands which are in the loop in producing a variety of A-ok smartphones out in the market? No.
Say for example Amazon. As we all know, Amazon is one of the leading online retailers of almost all kinds of stuff. However, Amazon lately jumped into the bandwagon and manufactured its own gizmos. First comes the Amazon Kindle Fire series and now, the Amazon Fire Phone, Amazon's first ever smartphone which may or may not surprise consumers with its specs and features. But other than Amazon, are there other unsung smartphone manufacturers of today that can possibly give us top-of-the-line smartphones besides those produced by the big giants? Luckily, yes.
Gionee. Does it ring a bell? Maybe or maybe not. But this for sure is one of the manufacturers of smartphones that might just tickle the tech savvy in you, especially now that it was able to produce the slimmest smartphone yet. The Gionee Elife S5.5.

Good Points
1. Design
Who doesn’t want a sexy-looking smartphone? The Gionee Elife S5.5 rocks out its super slim dimensions of 145.1 x 70.2 x 5.55mm. Being slim and sleek does not compromise this smartphone’s durability. The Gionee Elife S5.5 features a perfect combination of glass and a highly durable yet lightweight magnesium alloy for its body composition. Light, slim, and sports an exceptional grade in durability rating; overall, I believe the Gionee Elife S5.5 is quite a stunner in terms of design.
2. Screen Display
The screen display is the next thing we look at after we reviewed a smartphone’s design, and for the Gionee Elife S5.5, it seems to be a no biggie for it to convince you it has what it takes to satisfy your visual cravings. With a vast 5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen display, your eyes will be heavily indulged with rich and vibrant colours. Watching a movie with this smartphone will definitely be a good experience. It alone will be able to satisfy all those visual cravings of yours, giving you no reason to buy yourself another useless mobile accessory just to take your mobile viewing experience up a notch.
Downside
Having no memory card slot is not that big of a deal for some, but to know it lacks LTE connectivity? Well, I guess that’s quite a huge letdown. Although provided with 3G technology, our today’s standards can be quite demanding. Tech-savvy people know there is a necessary call for LTE connectivity. And with that being said, the Gionee Elife S5.5 will most likely leave its mark as an average smartphone rather to be seated on top of lists of notable units out in the market today.
