This cellphone has a wonderful design, with a thickness of just 0.33 inches. The Alcatel 5V is a compact cellphone, considering it has a 6.2" screen and it's just 6.05 inches long and 2.94" wide. This cellphone is offerred in 2 color options, black and blue. This device feels much lighter than what one would think about a device this size. Regarding its body design materials, the Alcatel 5V is mainly made of Glass .

Alcatel packed the Alcatel 5V with a good looking 6.2 inches screen, and a 720 x 1500 resolution, which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels composing the screen.

Alcatel decided to build the Alcatel 5V using an extremely fast 2000 MHz Octa-Core processing unit, bundled in the MediaTek Helio P22 MT6762 chip and a big 3 GB RAM. This device counts with a 32 GB impressive internal memory and an SD extension slot, enough to install hundreds of applications without worrying about filling it.

This phone provides wifi capability (and it can provide it to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) great performance data connection and also HSPA+ data connection, a lower speed 4G variation and 3G fast data connection, supported by HSDPA and HSUPA technologies.

It also shoots videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second. To complete the camera, it also counts with time lapse video.

The Alcatel 5V features a 4000 mAh great non-replaceable battery, enough to provide this phone with an incredibly long battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that the Alcatel 5V's battery isn't removable so you can't buy a new battery when it starts to get older, although with so much capacity you will probably discard this cellphone before it happens.

This cellphone is being sold for $ 200, which is somewhat expensive for comparing with other similar devices.
