Gionee launched the S6s smartphone on August 22nd. It's a mid range device that should compete against the likes of the Redmi Note 3 and the Lenovo Vibe K5 Note in terms of specifications but not so much in terms of the price.

The S6s has a 5.5-inch 1080p display that also acts as a flash for the 8 megapixel front camera.
The phone also has a MediaTek, MT6753 processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB expandable storage, 13 megapixel rear camera, fingerprint sensor, VoLTE, 3150mAh battery, and Android 6.0.

The Gionee S6s is priced at $267 (N92,000), which makes it the most expensive phone in its class.
The phone will be available in Mocha Gold and Latte Gold colors across retailers and online on Amazon. Unfortunately at the time of writing this post it's not available on Konga or Jumia yet.
However I've contacted the Gionee team to know when it's going to get to Nigeria..
