Comparisons Featuring Celkon A225

Short Review

  • The Celkon A225 features a basic design with a black plastic body, typical of its 2013 release.
  • Its 4.7-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 208 ppi, which may appear less sharp by modern standards.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6577 chipset with a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and PowerVR SGX531u GPU, but it lacks RAM, which limits multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera is an 8 MP unit capable of video recording, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The battery capacity is 2100 mAh, providing basic longevity without fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is outdated and lacks modern features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device also lacks stereo speakers and a headphone jack, which may limit audio options.
  • Overall, the Celkon A225 is a simple device with essential features but limited performance and modern capabilities.
