Kyocera Rise Review

(C5155) Score: 43.9 / 100

Kyocera Rise is a mid level phone launched back in 2012, having a 3.2 megapixels back camera, a 3.5 inches multi-touch capacitive screen and a powerful 1 GHz processing unit.

Kyocera is offering this phone in black color. This cellphone feels a bit heavy comparing to other cellphones , weighting 4.23 ounces. The Kyocera Rise is a little bit thick compared to current phones, with a thickness of 0.56 inches.

This device is powered by a good performance processing unit clocking at 1000 MHz, bundled in the Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 MSM8655 chip and 512 MB of RAM memory. This cellphone counts with a 2 GB internal storage, a reasonable quantity that should be adequate for the average user considering the Kyocera Rise also has an SD card slot to store songs, photographs and videos and even some games and apps that allow being installed in the external memory.

This cellphone is equipped with a good 480 x 320 3.5-inches screen, giving this cellphone a nice image quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The Kyocera Rise offers wifi connectivity (which can be provided to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot) and 3G connectivity, using EV-DO A technologies. This cellphone doesn't use a SIM card, because it doesn't work with GSM services and it works in CDMA carriers.

The Kyocera Rise is equipped with only a 3.2 mega-pixels back camera. To complete the camera, it also includes flash.

The Kyocera Rise counts with a medium capacity 1500 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that can keep it running for many hours, but you may need to charge it if you use it heavily.

This cellphone also includes a few useful features as Bluetooth and GPS Localization, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The Kyocera Rise is not a good choice considering it costs 100 dollars, while many similar cellphones are being sold for much less than that.
