Gionee has been rapidly expanding its 'Elife S' series off late. It launched the Gionee S Plus in November and has now launched its fourth offering, the Gionee S6. While the two smartphones come with almost identical specifications, the S6 emphasises on a more premium build, as well as support for VoLTE.
The Gionee S6 is the fourth instalment in the Elife series and boasts of an all-metal build. The unibody chassis is sturdy and lends the phone a premium look. The AMOLED display produces punchy colours and also had Gorilla Glass 3 for protection. The phone is powered by a quad-core SoC and 3GB of RAM, which ensure smooth operation of Android Lollipop. The 13-megapixel rear camera also manages detailed stills in daylight. Last but not least, the S6 has good battery life and support 4G with VoLTE. The price is a bit on the steeper side though, considering the hardware it packs and the fact that it’s missing features like NFC or a fingerprint sensor.
Gionee S6 price in India starts from ₹ 6,700. The lowest price of Gionee S6 is ₹ 6,700 at Amazon on 2nd October 2025.
