Gionee Elife E8 unveiled in Romania as the Allview X2 Xtreme

For weeks, we've been capturing your attention with the Gionee Elife E8. Stuffed to the brim with tasty, mouth-watering specs, the Elife E8 has already been certified by TENAAand is expected to be officially unveiled today by Gionee. But it seems that the Elife E8 has already been introduced by Romanian company Allview. The latter is known for its integration of Chinese hardware into Romania, and apparently got a head start with the Gionee model.

The Allview X2 Xtreme is therefore a Romanian version of the Gionee Elife E8. It is the same exact phone with a different manufacturer's name branded on it. Priced at the equivalent of $554 USD, the X2 Xtreme/Elife E8 features a 6-inch, 1440 x 2560 resolution screen. The 64-bit MediaTek MT6795 SoC is under the hood featuring a true octa-core 2GHz CPU with the IMG G620 GPU. 3GB of RAM is inside along with 64GB of native storage. A 128GB capacity microSD slot is available for those who are really stuffing their phone with apps and media content. The 23MP rear camera takes 4K video, and there is an 8MP camera on front for selfies and video chats. A fingerprint scanner is on back of the unit, which is powered by a 3500mAh battery. The Gionee Elife E8/Allview X2 Xtreme is 9.6mm thick, and has Android 5.0 pre-installed.

The Allview version of the phone will be released in Romania on August 15th. If Gionee unveils its version of the Elife E8 today like expected, we should know more information about the Chinese release of this high-end model real soon.
