Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini is a mid-to-low level Android cellphone, counting with a good performance Dual-Core processor clocking at 1300 MHz, a 4.3 inches multi-touch display, and two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 0.3 MP front facing camera. Is that all? No, it's only the beginning of this in-depth review.
Alcatel decided to design the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini using a powerful 1300 MHz Dual-Core CPU with 512 MB of RAM memory. A good point of the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini is its quite big 8 GB internal memory and a slot for external memory cards, enough to install a couple hundred games and apps without any trouble.
Alcatel made this cellphone in 3 different colors: pink, blue and gray. Alcatel made an excellent optimization job making this phone as lightweight as 3.39 oz. Being just 0.31" thick,the Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini is thin and comfortable. This phone is a compact device, taking into account that it features a 4.3 inches screen and it's just 5" long.
This device has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front camera. This cellphone can also shoot HD 1280x720 videos. Additionally, the camera includes flash and auto-focus.
This phone is equipped with a good looking 854 x 480 4.3" screen, providing this cellphone with a very nice image quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.
This device features a 1700 mAh medium capacity battery providing this phone with a below average battery life. This cellphone has an estimated 540 hours stand by time and a 20 hours talk time.
This device offers WiFi connection (which it can provide to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ 4G data connection, which is not as fast as LTE networks and 3G fast connectivity, over HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone has dual SIM cards so it can to use two different phone numbers and even different carriers at the same time.
This phone also includes a few nice features like Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
