Gionee L 800, long lasting battery power, awesome!

Why I purchased this basic mobile phone when I already have two cool, decent Android smartphones and a 3G, wi-fi enabled tablet besides access to landlines at work?

It is just because of the huge battery power of this compact phone. I bought Gionee L800 about 8 days ago, charged it to full capacity (it had almost half charge when unboxed) and it still retains almost half the power in spite of moderate to heavy usage ! 8 days and never had to charge it again!

Awesome😊

Look at the power, it is just a bar lost after 8 days! Mobile is never switched off, many calls and texts, browsed the internet, some photos were taken and videos recorded...it is still going strong😊

About all the sophisticated smartphones introduced recently we all know our apps and the device as such will suck away battery juice within a day or two even with limited usage. Even the latest iPhone 6 plus will have to be plugged in after 2 days of reasonable use. For me, power is important. I usually carry a 10,000 plus mAh Power Bank (portable charger for handhelds) while traveling but with this basic mobile I bought I am sure I need not worry about being offline anytime almost anywhere here. 

What I feel is we all need to have a base model as stand-by, similar ones we used to have about 10-15 years ago that retained power for days together. I had an awesome old model Nokia mobile which I used to keep as a standby phone until recently. It stopped working, but the repair shop said they can't do anything. I added it to my antique collection!

Gionee L800 was brought to my attention by the salesman at the repair shop who vouched for its efficient battery. I researched online only to get surprised by the specifications in addition to the huge 3000 mAh battery. As you can see from the above picture it has almost everything that a smartphone offer. So this phone gives me much more than my old standby Nokia mobile. 

The battery is removable. The phone costs only Rs 2100 / - here in India. Gionee has become popular here in India. Introducing affordable, cool phones they are creating waves in Asia giving tough competition to big players.
