1. Is M2 upgradable to Kitkat?
A : In recent days, we saw Kitkat updates for CTRL V5 and S5.5. So we should keep in mind that our phones will get KK update soon.
2. What's the battery backup of M2?
A : As you can see, M2 is loaded with 4200 mAh battery. Every person has its own usage which varies from person to person. If you play heavy games then phone will be discharged easily within 6 hours of continue usage. If you use 3g and music/video only then it will last for 2 days according to me.
3. LED Notification / Back-lit soft keys ?
A : There is no any led notification light and softkey buttons namely Menu, Home and Back don't light up when touched.
4. What is rooting and Custom roms ?
A : Rooting is a process which enables a user to be SuperUser. A user cannot uninstall pre-loaded apps like Gmail, Antivirus but after rooting you can do it by a third party app.
Custom roms are firmware of a phone which is made by a developer to provide clean and simple UI to user interface because default user interface of chinese phones are very bad and so is for Gionee M2. Its Amigo UI sucks.
5. Can we play heavy games on M2 ?
A : As this phone is cheap around 10K but nevertheless it contains 1.3 GHz quad-core CPU and Mali-400 MP GPU which makes this phone a gaming phone. You can enjoy all heavy games like Asphalt 8 and Real Racing 3.

A : Yeah. Resolution is 480p but you won't see any pixelation in screen. Screen is sharp and clear. You can set Brightness to maximum when you are in daylight.
7. How's its camera quality ?
A : I must say, its camera is reall very good. 8 MP camera takes good photos and record videos in 1080p. Front camera is 2 MP and enough for Skype video calling.
7. Does it support OTG ?
A : OTG stands for On The Go which means you can plug a usb device to your phone. M2 doesn't support OTG.
8. Does the phone heats while playing games?
A : As we are fond of Samsung devices, they heat very much because of low end processor but M2 heats very less. You won't feel any kind of heat unless you touch the upper part of phone where camera is placed.
9. How much time does it takes to charge from 0% to 100% ?
A : According to my phone, it takes 5-6 hours but when you unplug it, you will see sudden drop of battery from 100 to 95. Its a bug, so don't panic. Rest 95% will hold your phone for two days.
