Comparisons Featuring Dell Mini 3iX

Short Review

  • The Dell Mini 3iX features a compact design with dimensions of 120 x 59.9 x 11.7 mm and a weight of 108 grams, making it portable and easy to handle.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 210 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is limited with 256MB of RAM and 256MB of internal storage, which may restrict multitasking and app usage.
  • The rear camera is 3.15 MP with autofocus, capable of capturing basic images, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
