Comparisons Featuring Celkon AR45

Short Review

  • The Celkon AR45 features a simple design with a white plastic body, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
  • Its 4.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 960 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 286 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
  • Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 processor and 4GB of RAM, providing sufficient capability for everyday applications, although it may struggle with more demanding tasks.
  • The 5 MP rear camera captures decent images, while the 1.3 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
  • The battery capacity of 2000 mAh supports moderate usage, but lacks fast charging or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated, limiting access to newer 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 lacks advanced features such as HDR and stereo speakers, which may affect multimedia experiences.
  • Overall, the Celkon AR45 is a basic smartphone suitable for users with minimal requirements.
  • Its specifications reflect its 2013 release, making it less competitive in today's market.
