Short Review
- The Gigabyte GSmart Arty A3 features a simple design with dimensions of 145 x 73.2 x 9.4 mm and a weight of 165 grams, making it relatively portable.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for high-resolution content.
- Powered by a Mediatek MT6582 chipset and a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, the performance is suitable for everyday applications, supported by 4GB of RAM.
- The rear camera is an 8 MP unit with autofocus, capable of capturing decent images, while the 2 MP front camera is basic for selfies.
- The battery capacity is 2000 mAh, which may require frequent charging due to moderate usage demands.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience is dated, lacking updates and modern features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of advanced features like OIS in the camera and wireless charging limits its appeal.
- Overall, the GSmart Arty A3 is a straightforward device that meets basic smartphone needs without any standout capabilities.
