It is available in white, black and gold colour options. The Gionee Marathon M5 crams in a 5.5-inch AMOLED display with thin bezels to allow great viewing.

The AMOLED touchscreen has an HD (720p) resolution, which is not exactly awesome given its size, but should still deliver pleasant viewing experience.
