Comparisons Featuring Energizer Power Max P490S
Short Review
- The Energizer Power Max P490S features a compact design with dimensions of 139 x 65.8 x 12 mm and weighs 139 grams, making it portable and easy to handle.
- Its 4.95-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 960 pixels, providing a basic visual experience with a pixel density of approximately 217 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6739WA chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz CPU, and 2GB of RAM, which is adequate for everyday tasks but may struggle with demanding applications.
- The rear camera offers an 8 MP main sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 1080p@30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- The 4000 mAh battery provides decent longevity, although it does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 8.1 (Oreo), the software experience is straightforward, though it may not include the latest features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it lacks 5G support and NFC.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a headphone jack for audio.
- Overall, the Power Max P490S is a functional device with basic specifications suitable for casual use.
- Its build quality and battery capacity are notable, but it may not meet the needs of power users.
