Comparisons Featuring Celkon A87

Short Review

  • The Celkon A87 features a compact design with a 4.0-inch TFT display, offering a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels and a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi.
  • Its performance is powered by a Spreadtrum 6820 chipset with a 1.0 GHz CPU and 512MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus, allowing for basic photography, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
  • The battery capacity is 1450mAh, providing limited usage time without fast charging or wireless options.
  • Running on Android 2.3.6 (Gingerbread), the software is outdated, restricting access to modern apps and features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device is available in black and white, but lacks water resistance and premium materials.
  • Overall, the Celkon A87 is a basic smartphone with essential features suitable for minimal use.
  • Its limited specifications may not meet the demands of users seeking advanced performance or functionality.
