The M2017 was Gionee's luxury offering for 2016, as it sold for prices rising up to $2000. While the Snapdragon 653 it had on board was underwhelming, every other aspect of the device was top-notch.

When will companies actually learn that enormous price tag = impending disaster? Just look at Vertu for example
The only way luxury phone can work is made by order but then again looking at the spec which is yesteryear for $2000... oh blimey
Underpowered specs for such an overpriced hardware. Who do they think they are? If you know where to look, there are many of phones out there with 6000 mah li-ion batteries or higher that go under US$400.
