Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD Review

Score: 52.1 / 100

Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD is a decent quality tablet launched in 2013, equipped with a high-tech 1.6 gigahertz Dual-Core processor, a quite big 8-inches screen, and 2 cameras, a 3 megapixels back-facing camera and a 2 megapixels front camera. That's everything we have to say? Not at all, it's only the introduction of a much deeper review.

The Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD isn't very light for a device of this size, with a weight of 15.34 oz. The Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD is very slim and stilized, being just 0.35 inches thick.

This tablet has an average 1024 x 768 8 inches screen, which makes all pictures and movies look quite good. Its screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

Alcatel decided to equip this tablet using an exceptional 1600 MHz Dual-Core CPU, packed into a Rockchip RK3066 system chip and only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit disappointing considering this tablet's great CPU. This tablet counts with a medium 4 GB internal storage memory, which is enough for the vast majority of users considering this device also has an SD memory slot .

The Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD is equipped with two cameras, a 3 mega-pixels back side camera and a 2 megapixels front facing camera.

The Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD features a 4150 mAh long lasting Li-Ion non-replaceable battery that provides this tablet an incredibly long battery life. An issue to take into account is that the Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD's battery isn't replaceable so you can't change it when it starts to have trouble holding its charge, even though with its 4150 mAh you will probably replace this device before that becomes a real problem.

This tablet provides wifi connectivity (but it can't be shared with other devices acting as a hotspot). This tablet doesn't use a SIM card, because it isn't a GSM portable tablet.

The Alcatel OneTouch EVO 8HD also comes with a couple interesting characteristics as Bluetooth (allows communication with other bluetooth devices and accessories) and GPS Navigation, and some sensors likeLight Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

If you will use it for gaming, this tablet is probably the correct choice .
