Short Review
- The Allview X3 Soul mini features a compact design with dimensions of 142.6 x 69.5 x 7.2 mm and a lightweight build at 129g, available in Gray, Gold, and Silver.
- Its 5.0-inch LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 294 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6735 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.

- Battery capacity stands at 2350 mAh, without fast charging or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Android 5.1 (Lollipop), offering basic software functionality but lacking updates to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of water resistance and stereo speakers may be noted by some users.
- Overall, the Allview X3 Soul mini presents a straightforward smartphone experience with essential features.
