Short Review

  • The Coolpad Mega 3 features a simple design with dimensions of 152 x 77 x 8.2 mm and a weight of 170g, available in Champagne White, Moondust Grey, and Gold White.
  • Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 267 ppi, but lacks HDR support.
  • Powered by a Mediatek MT6737 chipset and a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, the phone provides basic performance with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage.
  • The camera setup includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus and a 720p video recording capability, while the 8 MP front camera is suitable for selfies.
  • The 3050 mAh battery does not support fast or wireless charging, which may limit usability.
  • Running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow with Cool UI, the software experience is straightforward but may feel outdated.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, though it lacks 5G and NFC support.
  • The device features stereo speakers and a headphone jack for audio needs.
  • Overall, the Coolpad Mega 3 is a basic smartphone that meets essential requirements without advanced features.
