The Gionee S9 smartphone was launched in November 2016 with its design looking like that of the iPhone 7. The new S9 device from Gionee is a successor to the Gionee S8 moniker with some upgrades in most critical areas like; screen sizes, dual camera setups, and a fast chipset for better performance. The device will be available in two variants; the base model and another with the name – Gionee S9T.
