Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") Review

Score: 51.9 / 100

Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") is a not so powerful Android device, equipped with a pretty big 8" multi touch screen, an extremely powerful 1.3 GHz Dual-Core CPU, and two cameras, a 2 MP back facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front camera. We will get a better idea about this portable tablet's specs when we get into deeper details.

Alcatel decided to power this device with a high speed 1.3 GHz Dual-Core processing unit, included in the MediaTek MT8312 chip with only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit low for such a solid tablet. Graphic rendering often consume lots of CPU cycles, so it uses an additional 500 megahertz ARM Mali-400 graphics processing unit to help handle those graphic tasks. The Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") counts with a moderate 4 GB internal memory, which is enough for most users knowing that it also has an SD memory slot to store songs, photographs and videos.

It seems like Alcatel decided not to care much about the weight in this 11.82 ounces tablet. This tablet is incredibly thin and comfortable, with a thickness of just 0.36 inches. The Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") is a very compact tablet, considering it features a 8 inches screen and it's just 8.23 inches long.

Alcatel packed the Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") with a nice 8" display, and a 800 x 1280 resolution, which makes all photos and movies look nice. This display uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This device features two cameras, a 2 megapixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front facing camera.

This tablet offers Wi-Fi connectivity (but it can't provide it to other devices as a mobile mobile hotspot) and 3G fast connection type, over HSPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This tablet doesn't have a sim card, because it isn't a GSM enabled portable tablet.

The Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") comes with a 3240 mAh massive removable battery providing this tablet an incredibly long battery life.

The Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") also includes a couple useful features as Infrared Transmitter, Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth tablets, computers and accessories) and GPS, and a few sensors likeLight Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 3 (8") costs $ 249, high for comparing with similar tablets.
