Comparisons Featuring alcatel One Touch Idol
Short Review
- The Alcatel One Touch Idol features a slim design with dimensions of 133 x 67.5 x 7.9 mm and a lightweight build at 109g, available in multiple colors.
- Its 4.66-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, providing decent clarity with a pixel density of approximately 236 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 processor and 4GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The 8 MP rear camera captures satisfactory images, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for casual selfies.
- Battery life is supported by an 1800 mAh capacity, though it lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated but functional for essential applications.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device also features a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the Alcatel One Touch Idol is a basic smartphone with essential features and a straightforward design.
- Its performance and camera capabilities are adequate for casual users.
