Short Review

  • The Kyocera Hydro C5170 features a compact design with dimensions of 115 x 62 x 12.8 mm and a weight of 120 grams, making it portable.
  • Its 3.5-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM8655 Snapdragon S2 chipset, a 1.0 GHz CPU, and 2GB of RAM, providing limited multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera offers 3.15 MP with autofocus, but the absence of optical image stabilization and a front camera limits photography options.
  • The 1500 mAh battery supports basic usage but lacks fast or wireless charging features.
  • Running on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software experience is dated and may not support newer applications.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
  • Overall, the Kyocera Hydro C5170 is a basic device with essential features suitable for straightforward tasks.
  • Its water resistance is unspecified, which may limit durability in wet conditions.
