Alcatel OneTouch 997 is a mid-end Android device, including a 4.3-inches multi-touch screen, a Dual-Core processing unit running at 1000 MHz, and 2 cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera.
Alcatel decided to sell this phone with a MediaTek MT6577 system chip, including a great performance 1 GHz Dual-Core processing unit. Helping with graphic rendering, the Alcatel OneTouch 997 also has a PowerVR SGX531 GPU ticking at 200 MHz. This phone has a decent 4 GB internal storage memory, which is adequate for most users considering that the Alcatel OneTouch 997 also has an SD extension slot .
Whereas this cellphone is very slim it's not close to being one of the thinnest cellphones nowadays, with a thickness of 0.43 inches. Apparently Alcatel forgot about optimizing the weight in this 5.04 oz phone. Alcatel is offering this cellphone in 3 different colors: black, red and white.
Alcatel designed this phone with a good looking 4.3-inches display, and a resolution of 800 x 480 , which makes everything look colorful and brightful. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.
This device features two cameras, an 8 megapixels back camera and a 0.3 megapixels front camera. It can also capture HD 1280x720 videos at 30 fps. Additionally, this phone's camera also features flash.
This cellphone features wi-fi capability (and it can be shared with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot) and fast 3G connectivity, over HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This phone uses a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
This cellphone also comes with a handful of cool features like Bluetooth (allows communication with other devices, computers, and accessories) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
This device features a medium sized 1800 mAh Li-Ion removable battery, which is quite poor for a consuming phone like this. Alcatel afirms this phone has a 16 hs talk time and a 400 hours stand by time.
This phone costs 249 dollars, not a really offer for this type of cellphone.
