Comparisons Featuring alcatel Fierce XL

Short Review

  • The Alcatel Fierce XL features a plastic build with dimensions of 151.9 x 77.8 x 9.5 mm and weighs 173 grams, providing a solid yet lightweight feel.
  • Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 267 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for high-definition content.
  • Powered by a Qualcomm MSM8909 Snapdragon 210 chipset and a quad-core 1.1 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, the performance is suitable for everyday use but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The device includes 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD.
  • The rear camera is 8 MP with autofocus, capable of recording 720p video at 30fps, while the 2 MP front camera is basic for selfies.
  • The 2500 mAh battery provides moderate longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 5.1.1 (Lollipop), the software experience is dated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone features a standard headphone jack, enhancing audio versatility.
  • Overall, the Alcatel Fierce XL is a functional device with basic specifications suitable for casual users.
