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!
Awesome๐
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 strong๐
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.
