Gionee is a Chinese-based manufacturer of a variety of smartphones. Its main achievement is owed to the fact that it has been the world’s manufacturer of the slimmest smartphones. This was until some other companies took the pride by manufacturing slimmer smartphones. This company has been considered by many people as the Apple in China because of the classy phones that it constantly manufactures. Recently, the company came up with another very impressive device with features that can undoubtedly be the best in the whole world of smartphones. Their latest device is called the Marathon M3. The device came shortly after the launch of Marathon M2.The device comes with another very amazing feature, which is a battery that has 5000mAh. Apart from this battery, the smartphone also comes preinstalled with very many applications. It also has some other special specifications that are unique as compared to other devices. It is surprisingly being sold at a very low and affordable price.
Talking about its design and display, the Marathon M3 features a 5 inch display size. This display is perfectly complemented with a screen resolution of 720×1280 pixels. Even though this is not the best screen resolution, it is actually among the best displays experienced in the world of smartphones, and is the maximum expected in budget smartphones. With a simple design, this device is very elegant. Its measurements are 144×71×10.4. It is not a very light weight phone as it weighs 180 grams. This weight is taken without the battery inside the phone. The phone is however only available in two colors, black and white.
We also need to know something about the hardware and the Operating System. This device is powered by a quadcore processor, with a clocking speed of 1.3 GHz. Its RAM is 1GB, with an internal memory of 8GB. It also has a memory card slot where you can insert a memory card. It allows you to add a memory card of up to 128GB.

The company also added a camera that featured 8MP. This camera has autofocus capabilities with very high zooming capacity. The phone also has a front camera that is 2MP that is also a sensor and is found at the front of the phone.
The most highlighted feature of this phone is the battery. In fact, this is what is attracting many people to this phone. The fact that you can have your phone on for a very long time even if you are going for a long journey. The company has also confirmed to its users that it practically delivers a very impressive 51 hours of non-stop talk time. If the phone is kept without being used, it can last for close to 32 hours.
The last thing that we opt to know about the phone is its price. The phone is expected to gross at $179. This automatically places the phone in the range of budget smartphones. With all its features, it is being sold at a price that is cheaper from what was expected.
