Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 Review

(Mi-503) Score: 47.4 / 100

Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 is a little outdated Android device, having a 5-inches multi touch display, a 1.3 gigahertz Dual-Core processor, and two cameras, an 8 megapixels back facing camera and a 3.2 MP front camera. That's all? No, it's just the starting point of this extreme review.

Spice Mobile sells the Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 with an extremely powerful Dual-Core processing unit ticking at 1300 megahertz, packed into a Mediatek MT6571 system chip and only 512 MB of RAM memory which is a bit disappointing for such a good cellphone. Graphic calculations often eats lots of CPU time, so this device has an extra 500 MHz ARM Mali-400 graphic processing unit to help with that calculations. This cellphone comes with a moderate 4 GB internal memory, which is enough for the vast majority of users considering this device also has a slot for an external memory card .

The Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 is very thin and practical, with a thickness of just 0.39 inches. Spice Mobile sells this device in 2 color options: gray and white. The Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 isn't very light for a phone this size, weighting 6.35 ounces.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, an 8 megapixels back camera and a 3.2 megapixels front side camera. The camera also includes some good features: flash, geo tagging and auto-focus.

Spice Mobile packed this cellphone with a good level 5 inches display, and a 854 x 480 resolution, providing this phone with a good graphical experience. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

The Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 includes wi-fi capability (which it can share with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and 3G connection type, over EDGE technologies. This device uses 2 SIM cards so it is able to use two different phone lines and even different carriers in the same phone.

This cellphone comes with a good 2000 mAh Li-Ion battery, which is quite poor for a demanding cellphone like this. According to Spice Mobile, this device has an aproximate stand by time of 200 hs and a talk time of 5 hs.

The Spice Mobile Smart Flo 503 also features some cool characteristics as Bluetooth (4.0, EDR), GPS Localization and FM Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
