Alcatel OneTouch Fierce Review

Score: 55 / 100

Alcatel OneTouch Fierce is a little bit outdated phone, having a high performance Quad-Core CPU speeding at 1200 megahertz, a medium sized 4.5 inches multi touch display, a 5 megapixels back camera and a 0.3 MP front side camera.

This cellphone is much lighter than what you would expect from a phone of this size. This phone is just 5.13 inches long, but it is still able to fit a a 4.5" screen. The Alcatel OneTouch Fierce is very slim and comfortable, with a thickness of just 0.35". The Alcatel OneTouch Fierce is sold in 2 different colors, black and gray.

Alcatel decided to equip this cellphone using a MediaTek MT6589M chip, backed up by a high performance Quad-Core processing unit speeding at 1.2 GHz and only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little poor for such a powerful cellphone. Graphic calculations generally uses a lot of CPU time, so it counts with a 384 megahertz PowerVR SGX544 GPU to take care of them, leaving the processor free for other tasks. This device counts with a passable 4 GB internal memory, which is enough for the vast majority of users considering that the Alcatel OneTouch Fierce also has an external memory slot .

This cellphone has two cameras, a 5 MP back-facing camera and a 0.3 MP front facing camera. The Alcatel OneTouch Fierce can also shoot 1280x720 HD videos at 30 fps. This camera also counts with a few good characteristics: flash, smile detection shooting, HDR mode and geo tagging.

This phone is equipped with a good level 960 x 540 4.5" screen, which makes everything look very good. This screen uses LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

This phone counts with WiFi connectivity (which can be provided to other devices as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ (4G) internet connection, which is not so fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and fast 3G connection type, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses a Micro SIM card for GSM connection.

The Alcatel OneTouch Fierce also includes a few cool characteristics such as Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Geolocation, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This phone features a mid capacity 1800 mAh Li-Ion non-removable battery that provides the Alcatel OneTouch Fierce a not very long battery durationcompared to other phones. Alcatel claims this cellphone has a 456 hours stand by time and a 8 hs talk time. A possible problem to take into account is that this cellphone's battery isn't replaceable so you won't be able to replace it when it begins to lose its charge, leaving no choice but to buy a new phone.

This cellphone is being sold for $ 100, not cheap for a cellphone this level. In case will use it as a social cellphone, this phone is the right choice for you.
