Comparisons Featuring Lava A77
Short Review
- The Lava A77 features a compact design with dimensions of 135 x 67.2 x 9.5 mm and a weight of 140 grams, available in Gold, Silver, and Blue.
- Its 4.5-inch TN display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 218 ppi, but lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Spreadtrum SC9832 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz CPU and Mali-400 GPU, paired with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage.
- The camera setup includes a 5 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera, both capable of video recording but without optical image stabilization.
- The 2000 mAh battery supports basic usage but lacks fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), the software experience is relatively dated.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device does not feature stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack.
- Overall, the Lava A77 is a basic smartphone suitable for essential tasks.
