Comparisons Featuring Celkon A88
Short Review
- The Celkon A88 features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 60.5 x 13.2 mm and a weight that enhances portability.
- Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6513 chipset, a 650 MHz Cortex-A9 CPU, and a PowerVR SGX531 GPU, but it lacks RAM, limiting multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of video recording, while there is no front-facing camera for selfies.
- The battery capacity stands at 1450 mAh, providing basic usage without fast charging or wireless options.
- Running on Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread), the software is outdated, lacking modern features and updates.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in black and golden colors, though it does not offer water resistance.
- Overall, the Celkon A88 is a basic smartphone with limited specifications suitable for simple tasks.
