Gionee recently launched its newest smartphone called the K30 Pro in China. It's an entry-level offering boasting a unique design and capable specs for the price.

In particular, the device sports a 3D curved glass-like back in Jade Green and Pearl White colorway. It also highlights a square camera hump with an LED flash in the middle. What makes it unique and weird at the same time is you'll see the fingerprint sensor in the bottom right circle of the camera island.

It looks clean, but it is an unfamiliar fingerprint scanner placement that might be harder to reach than the traditional center-placed scanners behind.

In the front, the phone sports a 6.53-inch HD+ screen with 1600 x 720 resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and a waterfall-like notch housing the 13MP sensor.

Inside, it is powered by the 12nm Helio P60 octa-core processor. It is an aging chip, but it is still capable and considered as good for the phone's low starting price. It is paired with either 6GB or 8GB RAM, 128GB expandable storage, and 4,000mAh battery with 10W charging.

The back cameras highlight a 16MP main sensor along with two other unknown shooters.

The device also comes with a 3.5mm headphone slot, WiFi, 4G LTE, Bluetooth, and dual SIM slots. Sadly, it still loads with the old Android 9.0 Pie OS out of the box.

It measures at 164.3 x 77.6 x 9.7 mm and weighs 205 grams.
