After Zopo, Umi, JiaYu, Mogu, Iocean (in the same order) we have a new Chinese manufacturer Gionee that will start selling its wide range of smartphones in Indian market. Initially the company is preparing Gionee Dream D1 that will sport 4.65 inch Super AMOLED Plus display. I guess it’s Super AMOLED (Pentile Matrix display) that is used in Samsung Galaxy S3 but super AMOLED Plus uses RGB Matrix and was used in Samsung Galaxy S2 display. I will confirm the news once it’s officially claimed.
Gionee Dream D1 uses the latest MediaTek MT6589 SoC, 1 GB RAM for multitasking experience. In all recent budget quad core smartphones we have seen this MTK6589 chip. It’s really a good one especially when it’s accompanied by 1 GB RAM. According to theMobileIndian Cortex A7 cores are clocked at 1.3 GHz but I don’t think it’s possible to over-clock Cortex A7 beyond 1.2 GHz. ROM size is 4 GB that will leave approx 2 GB free for user. For additional storage requirement there is micro SD card slot.
Unlike other budget China smartphone there is no 13 MP camera unit. You have to be satisfied with 8 MP camera unit. You also get a 8 MP camera unit in Micromax Canvas HD. Unlike Umi X2 or Iocean X7 the display of Gionee Dream D1 is not full HD either. It’s HD 720p display. Out of the box Android 4.1 JellyBean is pretty certain.
Expected price of Gionee Dream D1 is Rs 10000-12000. In this price segment all smartphones flaunt IPS LCD or TFT LCD. Therefore, it’s the major strength of Gionee Dream D1. Hopefully, soon we will hear more from the company.

- OS: Android 4.1 JellyBean
- SoC: MediaTek MT6589
