Alcatel 3v Review

Score: 65 / 100

Alcatel 3v is a complete cellphone launched in February 2018, packed with an enormous 6" screen, a great 1.45 gigahertz Quad-Core processing unit, a 12 MP back camera and a 5 mega-pixels front-facing camera. We will get a better understanding of this cellphone's pros when we get into more details.

The Alcatel 3v ships with a very powerful Quad-Core CPU ticking at 1450 megahertz, bundled in a MediaTek MT8735 system chip and a great 2 GB RAM. This phone comes with anice 16 GB internal memory and a slot for an external memory card, which allows the user to store a couple hundred apps without worrying about space.

The Alcatel 3v is a compact cellphone, taking into consideration it features a 6" screen and it has just 6.38 inches long. This cellphone is slim and good-looking, with a thickness of just 0.32". This phone is available in 3 colors, black, blue and gold. Alcatel has made a very good design job making this cellphone weight only 5.47 ounces. Regarding its design materials, the Alcatel 3v is majorly made of Metal .

This device is equipped with two cameras, a 12 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 megapixels front side camera. Its back facing camera has a f/2.2 aperture so it can take sharp photographs even in low lighting conditions. It is capable of capturing Full HD 1920x1080 videos at 30 frames per second. This device also includes time lapse video.

Alcatel designed the Alcatel 3v with a great 6" screen, and a resolution of 1080 x 2160 , providing this device with a high level image quality.

This cellphone offers Wi-Fi connectivity (and it can share it with other devices acting as a wireless modem), 4G (LTE) fast connection type and also HSPA+ data connection, which is a bit slower 4G network and 3G fast internet connection, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The Alcatel 3v has dual sim to be able to to use two different carriers or phone lines at the same time.

The Alcatel 3v also includes plenty of useful features like Fingerprint Identification, Facial recognition biometrics, NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth phones and accessories), GPS Navigation and FM Radio, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This phone uses a 3000 mAh great Li - Ion non-replaceable battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it. An issue to take into account is that the Alcatel 3v's battery is not removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts to have trouble holding its charge, whereas with this big battery you will probably buy a new device before that happens.

Alcatel is offering this cellphone for $ 150, which is a rather high price for comparing with other similar cellphones. This phone is definitely the correct option if you want it to take many photographs, need a device for work, are looking for a gamer phone or will use it as a social phone. This device is sold with SIM tool, 5V1A charger, Clear case, In-ear headphones, Screen protector , Data cable and Quick start guide.
