Short review
The phone comes with a single 16 MP primary lens. You have a front camera of 8 MP capable of shooting 1080p images, much like the configuration of the back camera.
The Gionee M30 comes with a 6.0-inch IPS Lcd display with 720 x 1440 pixel resolution, a 268 PPI pixel density, and an 18:9 aspect ratio.
Gionee M30 is equipped with a Mediatek MT6771 Helio P60 (12 nm) with a Mali-G72 MP3 GPU on board and you can’t expect good performance from this chipset but it can run smoothly for basic day-to-day activities. The phone comes with 4 GB of RAM and offers 64 GB storage space, thanks to the sd card slot, you can expand the storage space.
We don’t actually know which Android version is installed to the device, however, as per rumors, the device will possibly come installed with Android 7 and if that happens then you won’t get to enjoy new apps because Android 11 is on its way and more apps will be requiring newer versions of Android.
The handset comes with a ridiculously large 10,000 mAh battery with 25W fast charging and a dedicated encryption chip to provide extra protection for your files.
