Maxwest Orbit X50 Review

Score: 46.4 / 100

Maxwest Orbit X50 is a mid-end Android phone, coming with a pretty large 5" screen, a great performance 1.2 gigahertz Quad-Core processing unit, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front-facing camera.

Maxwest decided to power this phone with a good performance 1200 megahertz Quad-Core CPU, included in the Broadcom BCM23550 system chip with 512 MB of RAM.

Maxwest offers this device in two different colors, black and white. The Maxwest Orbit X50 is much lighter than what one would think about a device of this size. This phone is very slim and stilized, being just 0.39 inches thick.

The Maxwest Orbit X50 includes a good level 5" screen with a 960 x 540 resolution, which makes all photos and videos look great. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This cellphone provides WiFi capability (and it can provide it to other devices around, acting as a wireless modem), HSPA+ 4G internet connection, that is not as fast as LTE-A or LTE 4G networks and 3G fast data connection, over HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone comes with two SIM cards so it is able to work with 2 different phone numbers or carriers at the same time.

This device features two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front-facing camera. This phone can also shoot videos in 1280x720 (HD). This cellphone also includes flash and geo tagging.

This phone packs a 2000 mAh medium sized Li-Ion removable battery that provides this phone a quite short battery lifecompared to other phones. Maxwest reports a talk time of 4 hs and a stand by time of 250 hours for this cellphone.

This cellphone also comes with a few useful features like Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Navigation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

Maxwest sells this phone for 155 dollars, which is a really high price for a phone this level.
