Celkon A66 Review
Score: 45.6 / 100
Celkon A66 is a decent cellphone, having a 4.5 inches multi-touch display, a fast Dual-Core processor ticking at 1200 MHz, a 3.2 MP back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front facing camera. Great! That's it? No, it's just the beginning of this extreme review.
Celkon decided to equip this phone with a great performance 1200 MHz Dual-Core CPU and 512 MB of RAM memory. The Celkon A66 counts with a passable 4 GB internal storage, which is enough for the vast majority of users knowing that this cellphone also has an SD memory card expansion slot to store pictures and videos and even some applications that can be installed in the external memory.
This cellphone feels much lighter than what you would expect from a phone like this. This phone is for sale in 2 colors, black and white. The Celkon A66's thickness (0.43 inches) is quite far from today's standards, but it still feels in the hand.
This phone features two cameras, a 3.2 MP back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front side camera. This phone also includes flash.
This phone has a interesting 4.5-inches display with a 854 x 480 resolution, which makes it hard to see the pixels composing the display. This display uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.
The Celkon A66 features Wi-Fi capability (which it can share with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and 3G internet connection, using EDGE technologies. This cellphone supports dual SIM cards so it can to use 2 different carriers or phone lines in the same phone.
This cellphone features a medium 2000 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that provides this phone a quite short battery lifecompared to other phones. Celkon says this phone has a 5 hours talk time and a 160 hours stand by time.
This phone also features a few interesting features as Bluetooth (provides communication with other bluetooth cellphones, computers and accessories), GPS and FM Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
The Celkon A66 is being sold for $ 155, which is a very high price for this kind of phone.
