Comparisons Featuring Allview W1s
Short Review
- The Allview W1s features a compact design with dimensions of 144.9 x 72.1 x 8.8 mm and a weight of 156.2g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi, although it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 chipset with a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for heavy multitasking.
- The rear camera is an 8 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p@30fps, while the 2 MP front camera is adequate for selfies.
- Battery life is supported by a 2000 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast charging or wireless charging options.
- Running on Microsoft Windows Phone 8.1, the software experience is unique but may limit app availability.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, though there is no support for 5G or NFC.
- The device features a microUSB 2.0 port and includes a headphone jack.
