Expert Rating:
![Deeksha Koli]()
Verdict
The Gionee S6s offers decent design and a good display. You also get a nice pair of shooters, with the selfie cam playing the star of the show. The battery backup on offer is adequate, and the performance should suffice most users unless you intend to use the phone purely for high-end gaming.At its price, which is Rs 17,999, the Gionee S6s faces stiff competition from the recently launched OPPO F1s (review), which is a selfie-centric phone and sports a whopping 16MP front camera for a simil
Pros
- Good display
- Decent rear camera and a great selfie shooter
- Impressive battery backup
Cons
- Heating issues
- Bloated software

Design: Going With The Flow
+
The Gionee S6s comes in gold and has a unibody full metal design as we mentioned earlier... which means it doesn’t stray too far away from the design of many other phones we’ve seen lately.

Display: Almost Perfect
+
The Gionee S6s uses a 5.5-inch full HD panel with a 2.5D curved glass on top. While spotted in a completely different price segment, 2K displays are no longer a rare sight, and having looked at those, we felt that the sharpness on S6s’ screen was not eye-searing.

Cameras: A Mixed Bag With Great Selfies
+
The shooting department is where the Gionee S6s is game for anything. Equipped with a 13MP primary camera, aided by an LED flash, and the 8MP front-camera configuration, the device may not sound like a shooting beast, but it does a fairly decent job. The primary snapper captures great details and colours, with the output looking rich and not dull. However, some lighting situations led to slightly warmer colour reproduction. The camera performs average in low light conditions, while night photography was pretty decent. That said, you should expect some grain. The front camera steals the show with incredibly detailed selfies. However, the Face Beauty 2.0, which is one of the highlights about the phone, leads to gimmicky pictures if not tuned properly. Low light selfies were extremely hazy, but you have a selfie flash at your disposal, with three usage options including flash, steady light, and screen flash, to take care of such situations.

Software: Feature Packed But Bloated
+
The Gionee S6s runs the company’s own Amigo UI v3.2 on top of Android Marshmallow. Consequently, you don’t find an app drawer, but you do find a tweaked icon pack.

Performance and Battery: What Comes With A Decent Daily Driver
+
The 1.3GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6753 chip in the Gionee S6s might not sound like the most powerful, nut the phone performs well as a daily driver. The SoC is coupled with 3GB of RAM. We didn’t encounter any major lags in everyday use. The phone takes on multitasking easily, as well. However, you might encounter a few stutters in that case.
