Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD Review

Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD is a mid level phone launched many years ago, packing an extremely fast Quad-Core processing unit clocking at 1200 MHz, a pretty big 5" multi-touch screen, and 2 cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 1.3 MP front camera. We will get a better idea about this phone's specifications when we get into deeper details.

Alcatel decided to equip this cellphone using a MediaTek MT6589 chip, holding a high-tech Quad-Core processor speeding at 1.2 GHz with only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little low for a device of this quality. Graphic rendering often eats a lot of processing power, so this phone uses an extra PowerVR SGX544 graphics processing unit working at 384 MHz to help with that calculations. The Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD has a moderate 4 GB internal storage, which is enough for the vast majority of users knowing that this cellphone also has a slot for an external memory card to store songs, pictures and videos and even some applications that allow being installed in the external memory.

The Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD is quite a compact phone, given that it features a 5" display and it's only 5.67" long. The Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD is just 0.33" thick, taking it to the thinnest device's category. This cellphone feels much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone this size. This phone is sold in a lot of colors: black, yellow, red and white.

Alcatel designed the Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD with a nice 5 inches screen, and a 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution, giving this cellphone a good level graphical experience. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

This cellphone includes wi-fi connection (but it can't share it with other devices acting as a modem), 4G HSPA+ data connection, which is not as fast as LTE networks and fast 3G data connection, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD works with a Micro SIM card for GSM connection.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, an 8 MP back facing camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front facing camera. This phone also captures 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 frames per second. In addition, this cellphone's camera also features a high number of interesting features: auto-focus, flash, face detection shooting, digital image stabilization, geo tagging and smile detection shooting.

This phone also comes with a couple nice characteristics like Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Navigation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Gyroscope and Compass.

This phone packs a high capacity 2500 mAh Li-Polymer battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it at all. Alcatel informs a talk time of 9 hours and a stand by time of 500 hs for this phone.

The Alcatel OneTouch Scribe HD is the correct choice for you no matter whether you want a cellphone for playing games or want it majorly for social networks.
