Gionee Rolls Out Android 4.4 KitKat Update For Elife S5.5 Smartphone

Now there's some great software to go with that compelling list of specifications.

 

Chinese smartphone manufacturer Gionee launched its Elife S5.5 in India a few months ago at Rs 22,990, but was let down by its outdated software. Addressing the issue the company has now released an Android 4.4 KitKat update for the smartphone, which should go down well with its compelling list of specifications.

Users can install the OTA update by accessing Settings > About Phone > System Updates, which will automatically download the 865.71MB file and complete the installation. Given that installing new software is a highly battery intensive process, it is adviced that users begin the process on a fully charged battery.

The update not only ups the Android version from 4.2 Jelly Bean to 4.4 KitKat unlocking all its goodies, it also features a new homescreen layout. Gionee also says that the update comes pre-installed with Du Speed Booster for faster operations.

The Elife S5.5 features a 5-inch Full HD display, a 1.7GHz true octa-core processor and 2GB of RAM. The phone's 13MP primary camera has also received high praise by critics, and even comes with a 5MP front facing shooter.
