Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini Review

4 GB (6012A)     See other variants reviews Score: 52 / 100

Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini is a mid-to-low level Android phone, including a good performance Dual-Core processor ticking at 1.3 GHz, a medium sized 4.3-inches multi touch screen, and two cameras, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera.

This device is very slim and good-looking, with a thickness of just 0.31". While the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini is only 5 inches long, it still manages to hold a 4.3 inches display. Alcatel made this phone in three different color options, pink, blue and gray. Alcatel made a really good design job making this device weight only 3.39 ounces.

Alcatel decided to equip the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini using a powerful 1.3 gigahertz Dual-Core processing unit and 512 MB of RAM memory. This phone has a moderate 4 GB internal storage memory, which is enough for the vast majority of users having that the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini also has a slot for external memory cards .

Alcatel packed the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini with a nice 4.3" display, and a 854 x 480 resolution, which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels forming the display. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini provides Wi-Fi connectivity (which it can provide to other devices around, acting as a router or modem), 4G (HSPA+) data connection, which is not as fast as LTE-A or LTE 4G networks and fast 3G data connection, using HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. The Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini works with a Micro SIM card for GSM carriers.

The Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini features two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back camera and a 0.3 megapixels front-facing camera. It is also able to capture HD 1280x720 videos. In addition, this device's camera also features flash and auto-focus.

This cellphone packs a mid capacity 1700 mAh replaceable battery, which is quite low for a thirsty phone like this. Alcatel informs a stand by time of 540 hours and a talk time of 20 hours for this phone.

This phone also includes some useful features such as Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This cellphone is priced 185 dollars, which is a really high price for a phone this level.
