Alcatel 5 Review

Score: 66.3 / 100

Alcatel 5 is an incredible Android cellphone launched in February 2018, featuring a big size 5.7-inches screen, a high-tech 1.5 gigahertz Octa-Core processing unit, and two cameras, a 12 megapixels back-facing camera and a 13 MP front camera.

This cellphone feels much lighter than what one would expect from a phone of this size. Whereas this phone just has 6" long and 2.8 inches wide, it is still able to fit a a 5.7 inches display. This cellphone has a wonderful design, with a thickness of just 0.33 inches. This phone is only for sale in color 16 777 216. Regarding its construction, this device is mainly manufactured with Metal .

This cellphone is equipped with a high-tech 1500 MHz Octa-Core CPU, bundled in the MediaTek MT6750 system chip and a great 3 GB of RAM. A great point of this cellphone is its big 32 GB internal storage and an external SD slot, allowing the user to install lots of applications, games, songs, photos and videos without thinking about running out of space at all.

Alcatel designed the Alcatel 5 with a nice 5.7 inches screen, and a resolution of 720 x 1440 , which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels in the screen.

This phone features two cameras, a 12 MP back-facing camera and a 13 megapixels front-facing camera. this phone's back-facing camera lens has a 2.2 aperture so it can shoot clear pictures even in low lighting environments. It also captures 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 fps. Additionally, the camera includes time lapse video.

This phone packs a great 3000 mAh non-removable battery that can keep this phone running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it. An issue to take into consideration is that this cellphone's battery is not removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it begins to lose capacity, even though with such a huge battery size you will probably buy a new cellphone before that becomes a real problem.

The Alcatel 5 counts with wi-fi connection (and it can provide it to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) high speed connection and also HSPA+ internet connection, that is a lower speed 4G technology and 3G fast data connection, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The Alcatel 5 has two Nano SIM cards so it is able to work with 2 different phone numbers or carriers in the same cellphone.

This phone also comes with plenty of interesting features such as Fingerprint Reader, Facial recognition biometrics, NFC, Bluetooth (4.2 ), GPS Navigation and Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This cellphone is probably very appropiate if you want a phone for work, want a gaming phone, are a photography fan or want a social device.
