Short Review
- The Lava Icon features a sleek design with dimensions of 143.4 x 70.6 x 7.7 mm and a weight of 143g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
- It sports a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU paired with 2GB of RAM, which supports basic multitasking and app usage.
- The rear camera is a 13 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera serves for selfies.
- Battery capacity is 2500mAh, which may require frequent charging due to the lack of fast or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), which is an older version of the operating system.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone does not feature water resistance and lacks stereo speakers, but it includes a headphone jack.
- Overall, the Lava Icon is a basic smartphone with essential features suitable for everyday tasks.
