The device is integrated in an aluminum magnesium alloy unibody design and will be available in India from April 3 onwards. It is priced at 399 Euros, which is roughly Rs 27,800. After facing stiff competition from Oppo R5 and Vivo X5MAx, in the battle of being the slimmest, this time Gionee has made a sound decision to stay with its usual 5.5mm thickness.
