Xolo A700s Review

Score: 48.8 / 100

Xolo A700s is a decently made device, coming with an extremely powerful 1.3 gigahertz Dual-Core processing unit, a medium sized 4.5 inches display, and 2 cameras, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front side camera. We will get a better understanding of this phone's characteristics when we get into deeper details.

Tag Heuer is offering the Xolo A700s in 2 different colors, black and white. The Xolo A700s is just 0.35 inches thick, making its way into the thinnest cellphones podium.

Tag Heuer equipped the Xolo A700s with a interesting 4.5-inches display, and a 960 x 540 resolution, which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels taking part of the display. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

Tag Heuer decided to design this phone using a high speed 1300 MHz Dual-Core processing unit, included in the MediaTek MT6572 chip and only 1 GB RAM which is a little bit poor for such a good device. Graphic intensive tasks often consume a lot of CPU processing time, so it counts with an additional 500 megahertz ARM Mali-400 GPU to help with that calculations. This cellphone has a 4 GB internal storage memory, a moderate amount that should be knowing that it also has an SD card slot to store photos and videos and even some applications that allow external memory installation.

The Xolo A700s has two cameras, a 5 MP back camera and a 0.3 MP front facing camera. It can also capture HD 1280x720 videos. Additionally, this cellphone's camera also counts with multiple great characteristics: auto-focus, flash, fast burst mode, HDR mode, face detection shooting and geo tagging.

This phone provides WiFi connectivity (but it can't be provided to other devices acting as a wireless modem), 4G (HSPA+) connectivity, that is not so fast as LTE-A or LTE networks and the fastest 3G connection type, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone comes with two SIM cards so it can to work with two different carriers or phone numbers.

This cellphone also features a few interesting characteristics as Bluetooth (3.0), GPS (Global Positioning System) and FM Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This device comes with a mid capacity 1800 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that can keep this phone running for many hours, but you may need to charge it after some moderate use. Tag Heuer reports a stand by time of 623 hs and a talk time of 22.4 hours for this phone.
