The biggest highlight of the Gionee S9 were its dual rear cameras – 13-megapixel alongside a 5-megapixel secondary rear camera – which use camera sensors from Sony and Samsung respectively. The dual rear cameras on the S9 would let users adjust the focus and depth of field blur on clicked pictures. The handset also packs dual-tone LED flash. Alongside, the S9 also sports a 13-megapixel front camera with Gionee’s Selfie flash feature. It comes with self-timer and seven beauty effects to enhance selfies. The metal-clad dual-SIM Gionee S9 sports a fingerprint scanner at the rear.
