Alcatel OneTouch IDOL 3C is a great Android cellphone released some years ago, in 2015, coming with a good performance processor running at 1.5 GHz, a really big 5.5 inches multi touch screen, a 13 MP back-facing camera and an 8 MP front-facing camera.

This cellphone is available in a wide range of color variations: pink, yellow, green, red and white. This phone is just 0.31" thick, making it one of the thinnest cellphones nowadays. This phone is quite a compact phone, taking into consideration it packs a 5.5 inches display and it's only 6.01" long.

Alcatel decided to build the Alcatel OneTouch IDOL 3C using a fast processing unit running at 1.5 GHz, included in a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 8939 system chip and a large 2 GB of RAM memory. The Alcatel OneTouch IDOL 3C comes with an interesting 16 GB internal memory and an external SD slot, which allows the user to install a couple hundred applications and games without any problem.

Alcatel packed the Alcatel OneTouch IDOL 3C with a high-tech 5.5" display, and a 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) resolution, which makes everything look completely perfect. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This phone features Wi-Fi connection (although it can't provide it to other devices around, as a mobile mobile hotspot), LTE 4G high performance data connection and fast 3G data connection, over HSPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This device uses a Micro SIM card for GSM networks.

This cellphone has two cameras, a 13 mega-pixels back side camera and an 8 megapixels front facing camera. The Alcatel OneTouch IDOL 3C can also capture 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also has a couple of nice features like auto-focus, flash, geo tagging and digital image stabilization.

This phone also features a few useful characteristics like Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth and GPS Navigation, and a few sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This phone comes with a great 2910 mAh battery providing this cellphone an incredibly long battery life. Alcatel informs a 13 hours talk time and a 600 hours stand by time for this cellphone.

Alcatel sells the Alcatel OneTouch IDOL 3C for 249 dollars, which is very expensive for a device this level. It doesn't matter whether you need it for work, will use it majorly for social networks, will use this cellphone for playing games or you love taking pictures, you will definitely love this cellphone.
