The Chinese smartphone maker Gionee has recently confirmed its appearance at the Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona. The company's media invites were accompanied by the announcement of the Gionee A1 and A1 Plus smartphones. Ahead of the MWC event, the A1 handset was spotted in the benchmarking website Geekbench, revealing its key specs and features.

Following the Geekbench listing, the Gionee A1 smartphone will be armed with MediaTek MT6755V/C octa-core processor clocked at 1.9 GHz, which will also power HTC's upcoming One X10 mid-range smartphone.
