It comes with a dual-battery setup, with each cell clocking 3010mAh, thus giving an effective total of 6020mAh, which is way beyond the standard battery capacity of today’s Android phones. Imagine that coupled with a power efficient MediaTek MT6735 chip; we’re talking almost 3-5 days of moderate usage.

Other than that, the Marathon M5 has a 5.5-inch 1280 x 720p screen, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of on-board storage, a 13 mega-pixel rear camera and a 5 mega-pixel front facing camera. The Marathon M5 runs Android 5.1 Lollipop out of the box.
