Philips Xenium X588 Review
Score: 63.8 / 100Philips Xenium X588 is a complete Android cellphone, having a high speed Octa-Core processing unit speeding at 1500 MHz, a 5" display, a 13 MP back camera and a 5 megapixels front camera.
The Philips Xenium X588 feels a bit heavy for a phone this size, weighting 6.28 oz. Whereas the Philips Xenium X588 only has 5.68 inches long, it still manages to hold a 5" screen. Being just 0.37 inches thick,this phone is very thin and practical. Talking about its construction materials, the Philips Xenium X588 is built with Metal .
The Philips Xenium X588 comes with a MediaTek MT6750 chip, including a very powerful Octa-Core CPU ticking at 1.5 gigahertz with a large 3 GB RAM memory. A great feature of this phone is the 32 GB big internal memory and an SD memory slot, enough to install tons of apps, games, songs, photos and videos without having to worry about how much storage is left.
Philips equipped this cellphone with a good looking 5 inches display, and a 720 x 1280 (HD) resolution, making everything look colorful and brightful.
This cellphone has wi-fi capability (although it can't share it with other devices around, acting as a hotspot), 4G LTE high performance connection and also HSPA+ connection type, which is a bit slower 4G network and 3G fast connection type, over HSDPA, HSPA and HSUPA technologies. This phone doesn't use a sim card, because it isn't a GSM phone.
The Philips Xenium X588 is equipped with two cameras, a 13 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 5 megapixels front-facing camera.
This cellphone also features a couple of nice characteristics like Infrared Blaster, Bluetooth (4.1 ) and GPS Navigation, and some sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.
This phone has a huge 5000 mAh Li - Ion non-replaceable battery, enough to provide this device with a great battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that the Philips Xenium X588's battery isn't removable so you can't change it when it starts to lose capacity, even though with its 5000 mAh you will probably buy a new cellphone before it becomes a real problem.
This cellphone is a good choice for you no matter if you need a work cellphone, will use it to play lots of games, love photography or are looking for a social phone.
